As you already know from my previous posts on these bikes, I have never even painted the regular bikes, much less the Forgeworld versions. So, there is a learning curve!
Here are some WIP images of the first bike. What made these even more of a challenge was the color scheme, since it was White Scars! That meant a bit of a change from my normal approach.
Fortunately, when I worked on the Pre Heresy White Scars infantry, I introduced a little more red. I thought that it really needed such an accent.
With the first bike completed, I am even more glad I chose that route. I will post the finished images tomorrow.
The bases were nice, as usual, since they are from Dragonforge Designs!
I wasn't really excited for this project (or the model) until I saw your paintjob. It looks excellent (even for you). There is something about it that mixes a gritty look with an anime influence or almost like an illustration.
ReplyDeleteWe shall see what these bikes yield as a painting experience :-)
