Description Its been a while since I posted anything so I decided to post something I've been working on the past few days.

I have always wanted to paint this model as I think that its one of the best ones GW ever produced, and I got the opportunity to do so when a local Forum announced a competition involving this mini. I had really so much fun painting this guy, I would really like to hear what you think and see your votes on CoolMiniOrNot [link] !

Really nice work!

I love the coloring on the bottom lip. As well as the shading on the back pack and the wrench.

Hehe, well I'm not exactly back, I just made a small break from my Space Marines but it was something I enjoyed

I haven't decided on my next project yet but it will most probably be something on my Death Guard.

How'd you do the chrome effect anyway?

HomeOfCadaver In reply to Snowfyre [2011-10-09 01:27:04 +0000 UTC]

I first painted the metallic areas using aged metal from Valleho and mithril silver from Citadel and then I painted the wires gradually with different shades of blue up to an ice blue tone, almost pure white. I applied this paint not only to the wires but also to the poles of the force field and it mixed with the metallics I used there creating this effect. Hope that I helped, I kinda suck on tutorials

Snowfyre In reply to HomeOfCadaver [2011-10-09 01:34:08 +0000 UTC]

I see so it's a shaded metallic paint rather than a non-metallic metal effect.
nice. may try that out.

Yea the paintjob is full metallics! I'm glad that I helped

Snowfyre In reply to HomeOfCadaver [2011-10-09 02:56:17 +0000 UTC]

Yep.
may try that someday
but at moment I'm kind of stuck with a non-metallic metal craze.

Too funny. I can just see this dude electrocuting himself with the force field generator.
And for a minute there, I thought the grenades were in his pants.
