Voyager 66 Report post Posted June 29, 2017 Very nice cold colour scheme! Did you use some kind of fine sand on the bases? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really liked the illustrations in the Battle for Proteus prime campaign book so I tried to emulate that color scheme. Still not sure which faction I will build up for planetfall, I really like sorylian's. Actually I like all of them lol. For the base I used this gray and black grit from Galeforce for the first layer and then just plain old static grass here and there after that dried. I painted a dark brown first, although not sure that was really needed, probably could of left it black like i did on the infantry bases. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never thought that Gelforce grit is so fine. It looks really good for Planetfall scale. From what I see from your pictures one of the infantry bases is under-painted brown, while the rest is black. Too be fair both versions look good. :-) However, the bases with brown make whole models look warmer. It's hard to decide which are better. :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The basing came from a box set from Galeforce, there are all kinds of grits and grains up to little slabs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
