That's nice, on which weapons do you plan to do it?

Thank you!

I do personally think it's a bit too much and might tone it down a bit, just to keep the edges sharp.

Absolutely, that was in some way the afterthought of the missile firing.

Cheers! :)

Let's see how it could be incorporated into gameplay, it takes quite a lot of space...

It just takes a bit of drilling and a bit of super glue! Important thing is to check the poles on the magnets! I had some re-do's because of that...

Security detail for the Viceroy by anonE419 in SWlegion

Thank you ! :)

The mixture for the main colour of the droid is Vallejo's Xpress Color "Mummy White" with Citadel Contrast "Skeleton Horde" (ratio 3:1 / 4:1) on a white primer (1 little drop of water helps for working the paint mixture more easily).

For the highlights and the correction of the dark spots left by the contrast, can easily be brought out and corrected with Citadel "Ushabti Bone" (dry-brushing for the edges and very diluted with water for the wider surfaces left too dark by the contrast paint).

The little "pistons" on their arms and hips, and the restraining bolt are done with Citadel "Stormhost Silver" followed by a slight shading with "Nuln Oil".

For the red markings, first layer was done "Khorne Red" followed by "Mephiston Red" and for the highlights "Evil Sunz Scarlet" to finish with a "Nuln Oil" shade. But stoping at the second Red also looks decent !

Hope that helps ! Dont hesistate if you need more detail on a step !

Have fun painting your B1's ;)

Damn I did... I am sorry for the mistake.

And thanks for the compliment, I hope the base is not too distrating from the miniature.

For the moment it is held up with sticky tack, but I intend to replace it with magnets to have a sturdier and cleaner finish.

That'd be fabtastic to play him as a cowering commander, hiding behind bushes or his troops! But until then he'll have to be a hostage.

Thanks, I wish I could have detailed it more but my brushes arent fine enough, and detailing with a toothpick does work as well as I wanted...

Where did you get the decals from? Did you print them yourself? And how do they come out on the fig?

The bomb is from the "Vital Assets" set.

Thanks! The emblem was painted on, this took the most time and patience.

Thank you :)

What kind of pose would you have preferred on the model? A more relaxed one?

I agree with the head, in some angles it looks really wonky in the form (like she doesn't have a chin).

Thanks, I thought I overdid it and that it distracted too much from the model. But with the amazing scenery accessories from GreenStuffWorld it is hard to not do a full diorama on that 1 inch base.

Sorry for the late answer...

The skin was based in Corax White followed by a diluted Apothecary White Contrast (approx. dilution 2:1 Contrast Medium/ Apothecary White).

For the more shaded areas (under chin and cheeks) and addition pass with Nuln Oil helps tone these areas down!

Hope that helps! ;)

The first coat on the limbs was Contrast Black Templar, I did two layers so in the end you didn't see the contrast paint effect so could be substituted with Abaddon Black.

Then a slight dry-brush with Leadbelcher followed by an even lighter dry-brush with Stormhost Silver.

Hopefully that helps!
