northerndragons Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 I take it you're enjoying the gesso? I got a bottle of Liquitex pro black, it dries jet black not charcoal. Works great as a base coat though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phaedros Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 It has been over two months since I made Planetfall, unfortunately life has a way of making you re-prioritize how you spend your time. However, now that things have settled down, I have begun working on Acquisition Group 1337 at full speed. In a matter of moments I will update the OP with my first complete model. Edit: Right, so, my camera is unable to focus on the mini, but I'm gonna see if my roommate's camera works in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheesyRobMan Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 That's probably a lovely paintjob, but I can't tell because the photo is too dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phaedros Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Yeah, unfortunately I was tired and couldn't be bothered to arrange lighting. I will get some with better lighting here today. Progress Report: 5 Directorate Patriot Shock Infantry stands (150 Points) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherZaah Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Nice scheme, but a common issue with washes and shades are they dry shiny, meaning light points from camera flash appear in crevices you want shadow. If that's the effect you want, all good but IMO a matte varnish would make them look really really good. I put rings around what i mean as he shine.

Phaedros Posted March 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 @BrotherZaah: Yeah, I've been meaning to pick up some matte varnish for awhile now, and I think both the models and bases could use a highlight, especially the Desolator and Trojans as I got a little crazy with washing. I personally am not a fan of clean paint jobs for tanks and such as you can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherZaah Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Nah vehicles of war are never clean, even on parade. The weathering is good, just the shinyness that takes away from the effect of the army. But its just my opinion, they look really good otherwise.
