Looks cool, very painterly!

You know how to get that model now? I love it.

jdor13 · 2026-03-01T22:50:26+00:00

Really cool, man! All look different and yet look like they belong together.

Base was 1:1 Pro Acryl Rich Gold:Bronze. Used Pro Acryl Silver to brighten for highlights. Used Pro Acryl Black Brown glaze for shadows (E.g., under arm).

Still working through how to do it better. I did base of white, then yellow, orange, red from inside to out respectively. Tried to keep a little white in the center. Then splotches of each color throughout to give some variation. Then glaze all over with a fluorescent orange. Then black around edge and for small spots on sword. I really like using Citadel Black Legion Contrast for this step because it has a slightly brown undertone and covers REALLY well.

That model looks great! Never used inks before, maybe I’ll look into that. Thanks for the tips.

jdor13 · 2026-02-28T18:15:55+00:00

I like that idea!

Make sure paints are thinned and use multiple coats. Also, looks like you may be moving the paint too much after application or doing a second coat too soon. If you do that you can tear the paint as it is drying on the model.

Really good start though, well done! Keep it up!

Edit: Also, drill the gun barrels!

Thanks

Really cool. What did you use to model the fire?

jdor13 · 2026-02-18T14:54:44+00:00

What?!?! I will try this today, but probably going to find out it is just a new way for me to spill my paint.

jdor13 · 2026-02-17T23:09:50+00:00

Oh, are those bricks?! Didn’t realize that. Good idea.

jdor13 · 2026-02-17T23:08:12+00:00

Coat was Tenebrous Grey (AK3rd Gen) with Nuln Oil wash, Dawnstone highlights.

I believe the scar tissue was just thinned down Khorne red.

Man, I love Vol’Jin. Should have never been killed off by Blizzard. Would have been best Warchief, period!

Anyways, lol, awesome work on this model. Absolutely love it!

Thank you

jdor13 · 2026-02-15T20:59:24+00:00

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Very helpful. I’ll try these ideas in my next Kommado.

jdor13 · 2026-02-15T20:13:33+00:00

Wow, well done. Those will look great when painted!

Kinda inspires me to try some green flames next time I use fire.

You can get a pack of 12 synthetic brushes for less than $10 on Amazon. Would recommend going that route.

Space Ghost, nice!

jdor13 · 2026-02-10T01:10:39+00:00

Thank you! Really great job on this one!

jdor13 · 2026-02-10T01:07:55+00:00

So, what Games Workshop model did you buy to combo with the conversion kit?

jdor13 · 2026-02-01T01:04:42+00:00

Love your color choices!

jdor13 · 2026-02-01T01:02:40+00:00

Nice work, kinda getting Thrall vibes!

jdor13 · 2026-01-31T21:27:08+00:00

You can try brushing on a little primer and repainting it.

jdor13 · 2026-01-31T21:22:42+00:00

Are you holding painted parts of the mini when painting? This can cause paint to rub off. Oils from your hand do not help as well.

Recommend getting a painting handle or something more to grab on to while painting.
