Blood Raven Primaris Reivers with Bolt Carbines with Contrast Paints

So, I LOVE contrast paints.  Base coat, layer, shade, and layer again - minor highlights...  ALL WITH 1 COAT!  I was able to get these guys done in 2 days - but as usual, I get sidetracked...  Mainly small touch ups, re-hi-lighting to make it pop, the transfers/decals, and the script work too the most amount of time.  Here are the results...

So - Battle ready (contrast paints and primer):

• Greyseer Primer (armor, joints, bolt carbines, skull face, grenades)
• Wraithbone (Skin, Hair, shoulders, pouches, Purity Seals)  
• Flesh Tearers Red

• Dark Angels Green (Frag grenades)
• Black Templars

• Snakebite leather (test pouches)

Sector Mechanicus Alchomite stacks

Ok, needed a break from infantry and terrain typically paints up pretty fast.  I picked up this expansion for the SM's and got this small terrain from that box-set.  Here they are:

Sector Mechanicus Alchomite Stacks

Peachy covered how to get the rust/grime effects on the buildings - so used his training video:

Working on the starter Adeptus Mechanicus troops.  Hope to have pictures soon.  I used the theme of Forgeworld Metilica for the inspiration.  It's been interesting to try and get the contrasts to work for the grays apparently...  Posting soon.

Sailormoon Orks (Part 2)

So, my love affair with contrast paints continues.  I was able to get these 9 beasties done in two sittings of  hours each.  Batch painting is much more fun now.  Here are the results:

Sailormoon gretchin

Finishing up the killteam Terrain next, but see which model sets strike my fancy next.  I have a TON of infantry, so see which one fate picks...

Thousand Sons Scarab Occult Terminators

I've been painting these 6 Tsons terminators for over a year since other projects kept getting in the way.  Finally buckled down and got them done!!!  Here is the finished product:

6 man squad (had extra bitz) - fully magnetized

Sorcerer, heavy, and standard thousand sons terminator

Heavy reaper cannon and profile shots of the Scarab Occults

Both Heavies

Side profile for better look at the burn markings flamer

Right side of heavy flamer

 Pro Tip:  When doing the Hieroglyphics for the bolters and heavy weapons - started with Baharoth Blue for base coat.  Want as sharp of a blue as you can get.  Next - using a 0.5 Micro pen, use can lightly "skim" over the top of the casing - picking out the raised black parts while keeping the interior of the depressions Baharoth blue.  Much easier time of it then using a paint brush. 

Thousand Sons 10 man new models

Okay, better use of the shaders on the camera - but finally finished my 1st new model Thousand sons 10 man.  Looks pretty snazzy.

Sailormoon Themed Warhammer 40K orks

Whelp...  Per the request of my sister-in-law.  She wanted the theme of Sailormoon for her Orks.  She literally sent me this picture and told me to get as close to it as possible:

Well Esha, hope you are happy...:

More Pictures from the "gurlz" soon...
