blood in

Decided to try a new scheme for Khorne Demons. Wanted to go for something more fleshy and less cartoon bad guy red. Did a red base, dry brushing with khaki up to bone then washing with flesh wash and red wash. Did some spot washes with black. Any way, this is a test piece and was painted fairly quickly. Oh, also I was listening to black metal, so I gave it some corpse paint around it's eyes...

filth and disease! how fun you are to paint!

don't get me wrong, i love red. it just gets sooo exhausting. luckily, nurgle is always fun to paint, you know, with all the color mixing and washes and foul things. anyway, took a defiler brake.

bloodthirster painting WIP

bloodthirster, some progress

bloodletterS! the first 4.

glossed the black and purpled the tongues. i am not normally a fan of glossing my minis however, i feel that it gives the bloodletters an alien kind of feel. also glossing them reminds me of the character, darkness, from legend.

BLOODLETTER!

here is the first bloodletter. i need to paint his tongue a purple red to finish him. 3 more are right behind him. probably only 30 minutes of painting. damn these guy go faster than the marines.

and tonight...

...i build!

axe head for my bloodthirster

zerks, next to a rhino. notice the small amount of custom work on the rear?

thats better! i took my bloodthirster on a date to get some glamor shots. thanks to daughter of the emperor and her man for letting me use their far superior photography equipment. your skulls will go with those of the worthy!!!

anyway, i sculpted hair, added spine horns and forearm armor.

my dad can beat up your dad!!!

i love these wings.

SKULLS!!!

there is still much to do; find axe, add little detailing, fill some gaps, cleaning up little mistakes...

my bloodthirster now has some of his armor. both shoulderpads and greaves are done. the press molds worked suprisingly well. i am pleased. once again these are taken with my cell cam so they are a bit blurry.

i bought the balrog kit, put it together and started filling in the many gaps with greenstuff. if you look close, you can see the horns i added to the underchin. i have one more set of horns for the top of the head but am waiting to add those till i get the back finished up. now must go raid the bits box for fun stuff to add to this beast. (this was taken on my cellphone as there are not any detail bits or colors to show off.)
