Thoughts from the Depth #4

     Hello Ladies and Gents, I hope everyone had an excellent Christmas and that all of you feel recharged and ready for some painting, building and wargaming. Having more time on my hands during those Christmas days I started working on the Dark Angels. Ravenwing the Second Company, as the fast attacking force of the Dark Angels went first. I've already painted one up so I got only six left to go. You can see a small gallery of this guy below.



     I really like the dirty tire effect I managed to achieve using only water and Vallejo Pigments: Light Yellow  Ochre and Brown Iron Oxide. It does look really cool .


    For all my Dark Angel I'm preparing some temple ruin bases. After all the hard work I have put up in building up all those bases I thought that it can't go to waste on one army. So I decided to make molds and I casted some bases. If anyone of you would like to have some of those bases let me know and I will get back to you ASAP. You can see one of the cast already painted up and under it another work in progress for the Flyers.



     And for the end I leave you with a sergeant teaser....

  1. Looking good mate.. have 6 of these bad boys to do up, and like what you did for dirtying them up. Will be doing that as well and using the same products! Any chance you will do up a tutorial on how you achieved that look? :) Would be very much appreciated! Happy New Years to you as well!

    1. Happy New Year to you too MR Lee. I actually used some water and mixed the pigments together. For the recesses I used more of the Ochre one.

  5. If you wouldn't mind could you give a quick brackdown of how you painted the black? I believe it was airbrushed but not exactly how or the colors used. Thanks
