Working on a gravis marshal. I really do not like the boltstorm gauntlet, so what began as something intended to only be minor is turning out to be a lot of work, but I'm actually pretty happy with the results. There is some more work to be done, including some green stuff, but I bet tomorrow I'll have him ready to be sprayed black. Man I wish I wasn't so clumsy with the iron halo, but I'll do my best to straighten the points.
Yesterday I sprayed the basecoat on the capes of the Chrysaetos Crusade's Sword Brethren unit of 10.
Since this army is very Byzantine-inspired in my head, purple cloaks seemed like the right choice over the classic red or other colors. Something signifying their elevated status within the chapter structure. Plus I really like purple and setting my army apart in subtle ways from the way it's presented in codices.
In this case, I used Vallejo Game Color 72.016 Royal Purple, and while it isn't perfect I'm very happy with the result:
Well hello, there!
I've resumed updates to my blog, as I wanted a centralized location for my content.
It's been a minute. I've mostly plodded along in the hobby, working intermittently on World Eaters, Daemons of Khorne, and Renegades & Heretics. Some of them even got painted!
More recently, I've been working on my Black Templars army, the Chrysaetos Crusade.
I'll be adding photos and descriptions of my various projects, but for now here's what's on my hobby table:
I basecoated with Vallejo Air Gory Red, and used Vallejo Air Bloody Red for the highlights. I'm loving it!
As I get my photo booth set up, I'll be providing better quality pictures of my work.
Thanks for looking!
