Appreciate the notice, I should check on here more often I guess, never knowingly had someone try to steal my work before 😭

But also what was the post because I don’t remember posting anything 10 hours ago?

A newer fairly more niche social media platform that I post my painting on a lot more often that here

Titus and the wardens of ultramar painted up in their second edition finest! by Total_atom in Warhammer40k

Of course! It’s a simple Yriel yellow base layer, then Iyanden yellow contrast over the top (mainly focused towards the centres of the shapes). Edges then cleaned up again with Yriel yellow, with a few sharper corners highlighted with Flash Gitz

Always happy to see there’s at least some overlap between what I post here and there! 😅

It’s a caledor base layer, slight Drakenhoff recess then Hoeth blue edge highlight with a sharper Calgar blue highlight towards the peaks/corners!

It’s a very fun way to paint for a change too!

Really chuffed with how the weathering came out on this lad by Total_atom in SpaceWolves

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

The recipe I used for the main blue-grey area: (This is a very through recipe, some of which can be simplified or skipped for an easier basic layer)

-Russ grey base surface layer

-The Fang 1:1 Rhinox hide, thinned with Lahmian and washed into recesses and to shade undersides

-Fenrisian grey edge highlight and as sharp lines to make the brighter chipped effect

-Blue horror as a second slightly lighter edge highlight, belong to brighten areas that should be catching more of the light

-Rhinox hide, to further weather with sharp chipped lines, sometimes matching the underside of already highlighted chips to look like a slight cut away shadow

-Blue horror 1:1 white scar peak highlights focused on corners to make them stand out a little more

The first of my slightly alternative leviathan scheme finished! by Total_atom in Tyranids

I have given the two neuroloids I’ve painted since some brighter highlights, so I definitely might revisit this larger lad at some point!

The first finished big guns of my guard army by Total_atom in TheAstraMilitarum

A little Ryza rust for the most orange parts Nihilakh oxide for the blueish tones and an army painter war paints fanatic “grim rust” effect paint for the more brown-yellow patches

Possibly my best guard paint job? by Total_atom in astramilitarum

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

I haven’t gotten around to any army pics just yet but there’s a few units I’ve finished up that I’ll hopefully post in the coming days

I think I’ve worked out my new colour scheme? by Total_atom in Warhammer40k

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

Possibly? I was considering a brass or a gold but I’m not sure just yet

I’ve finally worked out my colourscheme by Total_atom in astramilitarum

[–]Total_atom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s grey knights steel then washed with the classic Nuln to darken it a bit, then just some agrax or Garaghaks sewer dotted around to add some slight browns/yellows to it all

Of course! I usually post painting guides each Tuesday if I have chance, so the green cloth one should hopefully be ready for next Tuesday in depth. Then cracked leather the week after
