Colour scheme was arrived at following discussions with Jon at GZG, something inspired by but not copied from District 9. A white spray undercoat was washed with Vallejo black ink, then carefully overpainted with Vallejo cold grey. A very heavy drybrush of Vallejo stonewall grey was followed by a top drybrush of Vallejo dead white. Detailing was added with Vallejo orange fire and Humbrol matt 33 black. Black areas received a Humbrol 32 dark grey highlight. Helmet lenses are Vallejo gloss black . A few last dabs of GW chainmail and Mithril silver completed them.
Oh, I love these guys. Along with the combat walkers, they're the spearhead of my Crusty..um..spear.
ReplyDeleteNice paintjob, too. I went with a steel grey, with burnt orange and orange highlights, myself.
You did these incredibly detailed figs a good deal of brush justice, they look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteAh, man, those are such a sight to behold! And now I must scorn myself for not putting them on my order today...
ReplyDeleteThats uncanny, I am doing almost the reverse of this colour scheme, mostly orange with off white details, I removed the horns/wings from the packs though, I prefer them removed, very good job on yours, well done.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, Paul. Everything you post makes me want to buy-are you and Jon in league!?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Fabulous!
