SG15-X14 Crusty Heavy Infantry

I recently finished painting some of GZG's new Crusty Heavy infantry.  I think these are my favourites out of all the power armoured figures that GZG produce.  You get 3 excellent poses, I especially like the "advancing into battle" pose on the right.


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.
