Before anything else I based the models that didn't have previous details. As I base in sand I find it a lot easier to put the sand on with glue and then let the spray seal in the sand. After an undercoat of Chaos Black I painted the pants and vests with the Foundation Paint Fenris Grey. This has made my infantry painting life a LOT easier, as before I'd need multiple coats of what I was painting.
The next stage was Shadow Grey over the pants and vests.
Next I used Tallarn Flesh on the arms, hands and faces.
I then began the urban camoflague by painting white stripes randomly across the pants.
The latest stage I've done is a light coat of Elf Flesh on the skin. I will darken it with a Flesh Wash as it looks far too pale when compared with the original vets like Sarge here.
Cortez and the Vet which I have decided will be the unit's cook. As you can see he has a Kroot head. This is ironically appropriate as the unit's first action involved getting eaten by a squad of Kroot.
Next up is black camo stripes and covering up of overspill of other colours. I'll keep ye posted...
As always, C&C greatly appreciated.
Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteAmusingly, a glance whilst scrolling made me think that the chap with the kroot head was wielding a fish, รก la Monty Python!
Ha! Very true...
ReplyDeleteI must paint the head so that mistake won't happen again. Although my brother's Kroot are red, so it may end up looking like a kipper after all! :P
