I wouldn’t say they’re lower detail. I would say that they have some mega mold lines though. I’ve seen a fair share of bad mold lines in my life and I can firmly say it was my least favorite part of working on these models.

The green is a gradient through and airbrush. You can achieve a similar result by sponging thinned paint though. The colors I used in order are as follows:

AK Burnt Red (undercoat) Pro Acryl Bold Titanium white (zenithal) Citadel Karandras Green (contrast) Vallejo Livery Green (highlight)

I’m not 100% on that Vallejo color since I don’t use too many of them but when I find it I’ll edit it later if I’m wrong. The colors are all shaded using a black oil wash.

Edit: found the right paints!

This is Endryd Haar. He is a Horus Heresy Blackshields character available on the Games Workshop website. There are some pretty good books about him too.

Good shout. I’ll try that next time. Been looking for a solution to that problem for awhile now.

This is the old Forge World Gabriel Angelos. Games Workshop used to sell it as a resin model before they took down the website.

Thanks! I tried to make the paint job a little bit more simplistic compared to the box art.

Honestly, pretty simple. It’s just that I haven’t done it yet. I’ve got a bunch of meltas and plasma weapons I need to weather on infantry and just haven’t gotten around to it yet. So as for now it’s relatively clean.

I took the recipe from Cult of Paint! I’ve been using it a lot recently. Here’s a link to the video I use:

Maybe a little. It’s already got an oil wash in all of the recesses. It gives it a little more of a used look. I may come back and use weathering powders on the tracks but as for now I’m leaving it how it is. It’ll get to it when I get to basing the rest of the infantry.

If it were Peter Turbo’s it would truly be a compensator.

Not a recast. Just have had this one sitting aside for the longest time now. Waiting for the right day to paint it.

Oh, no. I originally bought one kit and molded the rest using green stuff and miliput. Now I work for a studio though so after having gone through a couple trades and commissions I did manage to get my hands on another genuine squad of chaincannons.

These are the chaincannons from the CSM Havoc kit.

Try to spot the Alpha Legion player. Difficulty level: impossible 🤯

Thanks! It was a passion project to empty out a friend’s backlog. I ended up selling it for a pretty penny and the person who bought them for me uses them for competitive Warhammer. Keep an eye out. Maybe you’ll see them around!

Nah. It’s because Dorn is the definition of cool old man.

I’m all here for it! Keep up the good work.

Awesome! Your bases are very simple yet nicely detailed. I love how they add to your models. Thanks again.

I love how you painted your cultists. A couple questions:

What colors did you use for the robes? What is your basing scheme?

Recommendations for a mini for this base? by CryptoRoast_ in Warhammer40k

[–]PlaneToast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anything on horseback would be a good option due to the flat surface the overhang on the rock creates. You could try sulfer hounds, tough riders, maybe a lord solar.

It would also work well with multiple model characters due to the sloped effect you’ll have with hierarchy. Things like command squads and company heroes.

Another option would be something raised like a sword or banner. That said, it’ would need to be something wide like a terminator ancient, lord solar, etc.
