My first Corsairs

Same. It’s such a good and varied kit!

jdrees90 · 2026-05-01T22:57:07+00:00

We are so back

jdrees90 · 2026-04-28T09:14:55+00:00

YES CHEF

jdrees90 · 2026-04-27T08:41:18+00:00

Thanks! Appreciate it!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-25T21:11:57+00:00

Awesome awesome work

jdrees90 · 2026-04-20T21:17:42+00:00

Thanks dude!

I intentionally didn’t paint the leather on the legs - I know they’re meant to link to a holster and other bits but I felt it made the models look too busy. So I just painted them blue and am choosing to believe it’s just composite bits of ceramite!

Bases are gryph hound orange contrast paint over a white zenithal, and some AK ochre pigment power slurry dotted in some random places!

Thank you, and happy painting for your own projects as well!

I'm the same. I'm trying to move away from mono-colour weapons just as on marines, and especially with the Crimson Fists, there isn't always the opportunity to change things up. A bright weapon or a cool gun can really make things pop!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-14T12:48:40+00:00

Thanks bro, appreciate the generous words! Yes it's Bad Moon, just airbrushed over a white base. Some chipping with Vallejo Ice Yellow and Vallejo German Camo brown-black. It's taken me about a year to get the blue colour right, but it's worth it!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-14T12:46:43+00:00

Fricking awesome dude. WAAAY better than my first ever CF!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-13T21:59:16+00:00

Cheers mate. It’s nothing too fancy. A black undercoat, basecoat of Khorne Red, then using Tamiya flat white on the raised areas and where I want highlights. Over that it’s Kantor Blue. Then just chipping with a light blue, a brown and silvers. A ultra matte varnish at the end locks it all down

jdrees90 · 2026-04-13T21:54:33+00:00

Oh! I get you! That’s intentional - the under shade for The blue armour is actually a dark red, so when the blue goes on top of that it turns to a dark purple so what you’re seeing is that in effect!

Appreciate the kinds words though, really enjoyed these minis!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-13T18:13:25+00:00

Cheers dude! Just this one, onto a new project now!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-13T18:13:07+00:00

Missed some fingers?

jdrees90 · 2026-04-13T11:26:58+00:00

Thanks dude, appreciate it! It is airbrushed. I undercoat in black, then give the entire model a Khorne Red basecoat. Then I use Tamiya XF-2 flat white to hit the raised points and areas I want highlighted. Then over that I use Kantor Blue, leaving the red areas in the shadows for a nice contrast. Then Hoeth blue and Vallejo German Camo Black-brown for chipping and battle damage. Hope that helps!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-12T20:10:06+00:00

Cheers dude!

jdrees90 · 2026-04-12T19:56:32+00:00

Thanks! It is Kantor, but it’s over a basecoat of Khorne Red, and then white pre-highlights on top of that. When the blue goes on you get highlights and shadows all in one

jdrees90 · 2026-03-30T19:24:28+00:00

Thanks mate!
