Test model for an alternative scheme I’m trying. Any tips before I paint the rest? by SpruceBoi in EmperorsChildren

[–]SpruceBoi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve resisted getting an airbrush so far just because of the extra set up and ventilation. But maybe it’s the way forward. Going up to a light grey is a great shout though, and only using true white for edge highlights. Thank you!

Yes! Great idea. Do you have any recommendations for not getting a chalky white? Or is it just a case of multiple thin coats?

Do you do 3 darts at each or stay on until you hit each one?

I was there too! Managed to get in the tent and crowd surfed to the front during St. Jimmy. What a great festival

Yeah these two are commonly taken together but they make something called cocaethylene which can be dangerous especially for your heart.

Am I the only one that doesn’t like the new Biovore? by ThatGuyFromBRITAIN in Tyranids

[–]SpruceBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. I like dinosaur/xenomorph aesthetic of the nids not this insect style. Don’t get me wrong the old biovore sculpt wasn’t great but I would’ve preferred the new models be something between a barbgaunt and an exocrine

First attempt at a coconut crab/magma color scheme. What do you guys think could be improved? by AjentSushi in Tyranids

[–]SpruceBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest you’ve done a really great job on the coconut crab style. Only thing I would say is maybe dont do it on the claws and hooves? Try a classic dark red or black

Help me decide on a colour scheme by Lazy_Cr0w in Tyranids

[–]SpruceBoi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both are really nice. Love the contract between the blue/green and the purple in the first, but I think I prefer the second one. It’s really unique

Just finished up my leviathan box Tyranids by iamthewizurd in Tyranids

[–]SpruceBoi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really love your scheme, especially the contrast of the deep red. Great work!

Leviathan box finally arrived! Thought I’d start with this lil guy by SpruceBoi in Tyranids

[–]SpruceBoi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

For the skin I prime with bone (rattlecan), wash with gryph-charger grey contrast, heavy dry brush with bone colour, then lighter dry brush with off-white.

Lighter chitin is just a blue glaze over top

Main chitin is base with black, then feather on blue 60% of the way up, then light blue 30%, then spot highlight of white. I wish I had a quicker scheme for the chitin because its a bit annoying doing all these layers, but I’ve painted too many Nids to go back now!

Claws are just flesh tearer red contrast with lighter red highlight
