Tzaangor Horde... Part 1

Taking a break from the BR's to flush out the Tsons ranks a bit.  These guys have been waiting AWHILE!  30 Tzaangor, currently 21 cultists. and another standard 10 man Rubrics.  And so it begins...

More to come!

Blood Raven Shadowspear Vanguard

Another Project wrapped up...  Final results of several weeks.  Now presenting - the Blood Raven's detachment of Shadowspear:

Taking a quick break from the BR's to contrast paint ~30 Tzaangors.  Need a break from the Red - but will be back to wrap up another 3 man of Agressors and the man himself - Gabriel Angelos...

Blood Raven Primaris Suppressors

FINALLY!  Shadowspear is done.  I'll do a group picture later - but my Tzaangors are calling and I need a break from all the RED I've been painting.  36 Tzaangors coming up and thank god for contrast paints...  Finished Suppressors as promised...

Blood Raven Primaris Infiltrators

Another long project finished.  Found time to finally knock these guys out.  Troops choice for the Shadowspear box set.  Final results:

Blood Raven Primaris Infiltrators

Lastly, the BR Suppressors are next...

Blood Raven Primaris Captain in Phobos Armour

Borderlands is still occupying much of my time recently, but finally now have all the HQ's completed from Shadowspear.  I present the Captain:

Infiltrators and Suppressors for last.  I have one more set of Aggressors and Gabriel Angelos himself (Artel W style model).  Stay tuned!

Blood Raven Primaris Lieutenant in Phobos Armor

Next HQ from Shadowspear - Lieutenant in Phobos armor.  Here he is:

Captain is up next.  Also, for the darker skin - Use Cygor Brown, recess with Shyish Purple, lighten with Mournfang Brown, and VERY LIGHT HIGHLIGHT of Balor Brown (used for Eyebrows).

Blood Raven Primaris Librarian in Phobos Armor

With the release of Borderlands 3, I've slowed down painting considerably...  But, still - god bless contrast paints.  I still thin down my paints in my pots to speed up the process - don't still am having trouble with my edge highlight thicknesses.  Might be time to finally invest in a wet pallet like Youtuber's Squidmar and Miniac...  More to come...  But!  My finished camo Libby:

Shadowspear Lieutenant and Captain next...

Blood Raven Primaris Librarian

Continuing with the Model Parade - Primaris Libby time!

Blood Raven Primaris Eliminators

Finally starting to paint the Shadowspear box set I got for my Birthday.  First up for a couple test runs - the Eliminators.  Recon/Scout/Sniper/Primaris Devestators new unit.  The Las Fusiles are a new added punch to the Primaris army.  Used the camo idea from the white dwarf Blood Raven debut (July 2019 issue).  Here are the results:

Primaris Librarian & Phobos Librarians are next... 

Blood Raven Primaris Chaplain

2 year old Christmas Present I finally got around too.  Contrast with Highlights.  And the result:

Blood Raven Primaris Apothecary

Ok... For the most part - contrast paints are awesome!  But for the Apothecary white, I had to re-layer with Ulthuan Grey (used the pre-mixed Ulthuan Grey Air) to prevent the highlights from being so damn STARK!  I heavy applied the Apothecary white previously, so it had a medium grey all over the model.  Other then that, standard highlighting and glazes.  Little Blood for the Blood God for small accents.  Not too bad for ~6 hours of work.

Finished Product:

Blood Raven Primaris Lieutenant (Sergeant Jovan Limited Edition)

So lucked out and was able to score this model.  Worked overtime to make him pop in BR color scheme.  Going through all the primaris commanders I've been collecting and he is the first of the line.  I bring you Lieutenant Jovan...
