DK's Black Legion (still mostly grey)

[Dragoon King]

Thanks guys. I was thinking of adding a skull or two to the base, and maybe some blood on the axe, but I'm afraid it might make him a bit busy.

[Mega Nutz]

I think it would work buddy, either half a skull on the base or maybe one hanging from his belt at the rear! As for blood, don't go over the top but an edging and some splatter should give it that bit more!

Hmmm, I was thinking one or two hanging from his belt would do the trick. Just gotta find the right kinda chain to hang it from. I've got a Imperial Guard skull with helm, and I'm sure I can scrounge up another. I'll probably do the blood today or tomorrow. Just a touch, like you suggest. What is a good technique for splatter? Actually, I've been trying to come up with a method for a bit now. Also, would blood dry fastest at the cutting edge or further back on the axe?

Sorry buddy missed this one.... I'd say it would dry quickest up the blade away from the cutting edge.... lesser amount of blood at this point so would dry quicker!

Re splatter I'd just randomly dab some on. Sweet looking HB marine!!

Thanks, and thanks again, I completely forgot to add blood to the skull champ! Man, the competition ends today, I'll have to hustle and get it done and post the new pics. Crap, I hate being absent-minded.

Thank the merciful heavens, I finally got an Oblit painted. Pretty happy with him, all except the targeting lenses. Really need to work on counter-shading. Can't ever seem to get it right.

Finished fig looks terrific, really nice work on the stretched and tormented skin, looks every bit the creature of chaos it is. Planning on adding a couple of mates?

Thanks, I was worried about the flesh. I had a bottle of Secret Weapon Red/Black ink, figured it could be useful. I used it to wash a Tallarn Flesh base, then a light drybrush of T. Flesh, with P3 Midlund Flesh highlights. Indeed, he's got 2 pals I'm gonna work on soon. I really didn't have a lot of trouble finishing him, but he was tedious and time consuming, so I might paint something a bit quicker beforehand. I just did NOT enjoy painting him, lol.

Looking pretty brutal DK. I like these guys à lot

Hehehehehe, guess what is getting painted next? Got it primed and basecoated today. *HINT* Meganutz was kind enough to send me a Lord Zhufor head a while back, cause I don't like topknots...

[Dragoon King]

My take on Abby is finished!

[Mega Nutz]

Works well matey, definate thumbs up..!

[BasetheRuin]

Liking your original take on Abaddon. That FW helmet works pretty well for a ferocious looking BL terminator lord. Consider your idea stolen!

[horacus]

Great warmaster

[Dragoon King]

Appreciate the support. Thanks again to MegaNutz for the head. I'm not terribly happy with the purity seal, I may go back and add a khaki glaze to make it look more like parchment? Also, some scribbling. Other than that, pretty dang happy with him. Back to Oblits for me.
*EDIT* Did some work on the purity seal, much happier with it, in the last pic of Abby.

[Dragoon King]

Finally, the second of 3 Oblits. A bit better than the first, imo. The flesh looks better, I inked it heavier and added Elf Flesh highlights. Gotta go back and do some work on the first now, dang it.

[Mega Nutz]

Mean looking obliterater pal!

Thanks, I'm real happy with him. I need to work on weathering techniques though, I'm gonna have to get to a hobby store and pick up some pastel chalks or just buy some weathering powders. All I have is a small Tamiya set, with rust, a dark silver and a light silver.

[BasetheRuin]

Solid work Dragoon, nice and grim. The only thing I would add to this mini is some extra highlighting to his face. That way, you give it a strong focal point and still retain the overall gritty look.
Carry on brother!
