OK folks, just a wee bit of a break from the Rivet Wars kickstarter. I wanted to show a few of my old Demonhunter red terminators that I painted back in 2008-09.
Of all the colors I have painted Grey Knights over the years, I suppose red would be my favorite. I always saw them as more evil than good, and thus the more demonic red suggested as such.
After many hours, and lots of frustration, I think I have been able to create enough graphics to redo my Kickstarter proposal. These are not incredibly fancy, but it seemed like they would be very important to clarifying what I was trying to do! It was incredibly time consuming, but hopefully it was worth it!
I also hope you have something fun to announce here in a few days...
what colors do you use for there base amour? been wanting to do my purifiers like this, also all your models are amazing they gave me the push I wanted to start painting GK
ReplyDeleteFor stuff like these guys, I usually start off with a warmer red mid tone, and then lighten the color with yellow and finally off white.
DeleteThen, in the darker areas, I do a series of glazes, starting with red, and gradually adding dark blue to that. This way, the shadow areas have more of a burgundy feel, and make a nice contrast to those warm highlights.
Thanks for the kind words, and for checking out the blog!
