Jack Frost

It feels like summers already coming to a close way too soon and I had my first dose of spray varnish frosting, it just had to be on my space hulk converted priest didn't it... ah irony is fun. Still to my joy i found repeated washing, light scrubbing with an old soft toothbrush followed by coats of matt varnish helped clean off the frosting on the upper part of the model. The bottom half frosted I almost like as a dust effect... now to work out how to replicate this for the rest of the army... Now on the painting table, some more praetorian's. Sorry I've taken so freeking long to post! Anyway enough droning, here's some shots of my completed Preist in Terminator armour:

This guy is quite a way from finished, but I've had a hectic week at work (new job!) and wanted to get something up, really happy with how he's coming along, any comments/suggestions welcome!

Blood Angels Land Raider

Some shots of my Land Raider, the blod angels resin iconwas calling to me to be painted and then i just went on and did the whole model... since taking these photos i noticed that the dust weathering didn't continue into the forward black sections and have remedied this. I got it off ebay and the multi melta was missing so ill have to add that later when i find one! Any Thoughts or suggestions welcome!

Blood Angels shading washes

Said i say something more on this awhile ago. Sadly my camera is bit awful and so Its a bit limited, hopefully you can make out something in the Gloom!
Essentially Ive found the best two shades are Thraka Green and Leviathan Purple





Seth's wearing the Green and the Tactical Marine the Purple. The Green makes a great base for a dark red, such as the Flesh Tearers Colour scheme. The Purple a base for a lighter red. Its what I use for most of my blood angels. Baal Red is a great colour to blend tones if youve gone a bit overboard with layering. Gryphonne Sepia is great for adding shades later in spots that were missed or got accidentally painted over. All in all buy the whole new wash set theyre great and all have a use! Hope this helps, what washes do you use for your chaps?

Blood Angels Librarian

Here's some shots of my Librarian, any thoughts or suggestions welcome!

Blood Angels Razorback

Heres my first Razorback, agin wihtout headlights! I'll come back and do these later. There are some imperial guard track bits as I got this off ebay and it was in a bad state, but really cheap comes in handy when you impulse buy a new army. sigh. Coming next time: Blood Angels Librarian with book.
