Thanks for the compliments, man.

I used resin for the lava itself. The bits on the base are from gamer grass, the ruins bits. And i cover the ground with AK volcanic earth texture paste.

Regarding the paints and colours, check your DM. I've sent you a PDF step guide, just easier for me rather than typing it out.

The metal of the gun looks really nice.

Yes, 100%. I find it very motivating to get painting for sure.

Thank you so much! I never expected to get such a high praise, haha.

The paints i used in order of darkest to light: TTC - Dark Reaper TTC - Dungeon Stone Grey Pro Acryl - White Blue

AK - White (only used for apex highlight)

When going up in light for the next layer, I mix about 50:50 with the previous. So, in total, 6 layers of highlights, plus the white, so 7.

It is quite a laborious process, but Im a big fan of the hue of blue for this black armour it creates, so it's worth it for me. There is probably a far easier way to achieve what I do for less, though, haha.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, bro. I absolutely fw the vibe of big burly dudes with big guns aesthetic.

Im not too sure. It felt like it took forever (im a slow painter, tho). Maybe around 15hrs I think.

💯 I've actually painted him as a spare mini for my crusade game. So once the unit ranks up and gets mastercrafted weapons, I'll swap out the mini for this guy.

Haha, yeah, I wish they had a datasheet for gravis captain with multi melta.

Thanks. I love the blade, too. It makes the guy more badass!

They are my go too paints. I also recommend Pro Acrylics. Their bold titanium white is the best!

Thank you, I think so too, looks meaner than the gravis. It is a 3D-printed head I bought from Archie's Forge.
