It was a fun squad to paint, but my favorite was the Prospero banner. I would love to make myself a Prospero gaming table. OK, I think I will!
Also, blue purity seals were the most guilty of pleasures! It was also a blast to do the scarab bases.

Really Pre Heresy Thousand Sons :-)
I know that these days what constitutes "Pre Heresy" colors and appearance can get folks in a bit of a tizzy, but I think there can't be much question with these guys :-)

Is your "gold" on your pre-heresy thousandsons non-metalic gold? If so what did you do to achieve it? It looks great!
ReplyDeleteThanks! All my metals are NMM.
DeleteI have about a dozen different ways to approach my golds. One method is to take Ianden Darksun as a base, add a yellow white to lighten that and work all the way up to that lightest shade.
Then I do a series of glazes and washes to shade it darker. I will use a sepia to start, and then mix in either purple or even a green if I really want to have a cooler shadow color.
Then I work back into my middle tones with a yellow/tan mix.
I hope that helps a bit...
