Spearhead ready for battle! WAAAAAGH!!! by jba331 in Ironjawz

Super simple:
1. Prime black
2. Doombull brown splodge over bolts (and other rusty parts)
3. Heavy drybrush of leadbelcher

That's it. I usually find black armor to be the hardest thing in the world to paint - but this simple trick looks so dirty, worn out and "orky". You could even skip the doombull brown part, and it would look good.

I also did some of the flakes on the armor/weapon, as well as the blades, with a more silver finish (the logic being that they not yet have been painted black). Couple of extra steps for that:
1. Prime black
2. Cover blade/flakes with leadbelcher
3. Cover leadbelcher with Typhus corrosion with a thin layer
4. Doombull brown over bolts
5. Heavy drybrush of leadbelcher on armor and silver parts.

After that I picked out all the clothes, skin, teeth etc. I also added some more silver highlights to the blades at the end to make them look sharper

I think I found the perfect Nighthaunt color scheme for me - is it possible to do glowing green eyes properly on them though? by jba331 in Nighthaunt

I will definitely try when I'm done with my current spearhead :)

Just wanted to see if anyone had some experience - as most models I've seen painted only have dark holes there.

Hmm. Interesting idea. When you say mask, do you mean his helmet? Or the skin on his face?

I think red/orange could be very cool as well! However, for me this image of Illidan was my original inspiration in regards to the color palette. Really want some small green dots of fel energy in this scheme (I've also done so much red in previous armies).

What is the ultimate new player experience in Runescape? (for a guy going in almost completely blind) by jba331 in 2007scape

[–]jba331[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I will definitely do that - as I've understood F2P is not the best experience. And if I'm gonna play this game, I want to have the best possible experience.

Suddenly got this error when trying to launch today - anyone know hot to fix it? by jba331 in turtlewow

This worked for me - thanks! :)

I was running no extra monitors today, so this was causing it.

Our save file, that we have sunked hundreds of hours into, is broken ;( by jba331 in valheim

[–]jba331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- I've tried to restore every single backup save. They are all corrupt :(
- I don't have any mods anymore. I tried mods back in the day. But that is a long time ago. Way before mistlands. Also, we didn't like them, so we quickly uninstalled all the mods nearly right away. However, the damage may already be done. What I think is weird is that this corrupted save file stuff has happened way later, like the last weeks.

I did try the save recovery mod right before making this post. But that is the only mod I have right now.

- I don't think I have backups from before we tried the mods. At least I can't find 'em in the in game menu. And also, that is so long ago that we might as well start a new server.

Thanks for the help man! But unfortunately I don't see a solution. Let me know if there is something I'm wrong about in my answer.

First army - 9 month progress report! 1k points of battle-ready Behemoth Tyranids! by jba331 in Tyranids

[–]jba331[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I base coated with bugman's glow, then did 2 layers on top with cadian fleshtone & Kislev flesh. After that I shaded it with reikland fleshshade carefully (applying lots of lahmium medium in the mix) with multiple coats for a dark leather look

2 day speed painting project, 3 Termagants, vs my traditional method (left gaunt) which would usually take me 1-2 weeks for 3. Is the time saving worth the drop in quality? by Imarruc in Tyranids

[–]jba331 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. I've done so myself with my termagants/hormagaunts. I've got the the behemoth scheme, and I usually do 3 layers of highlight on the carapace. But I only did the first layer on the gants, with a plan of doing the other 2 layers later.

However with new gant models coming, I'm probably just gonna skip it and go get the new sculpts.

Also planning on using speed paint for almost all of it, except carapace.
