In The Beginning

There was only two...

Two Malefic Lords. Two Spawns.

My army is now able to atleast be fielded. Sure its only 250 points. But it's at least legal!

Not very clear but close ups coming!

My Militia/Mutants look good. Though I think my heroes are too red and I might have to make the next one yellow/orange. We'll see where things go. Same with the next chaos spawn.





Let me know what you guys think. Help me get better! C&C welcome and appreciated!

Above you can see my two Malefic Lords. I think my was was a little too diluted. I'm using Oil washes and still getting used to it. I ran out of Turpentine, so I have to wait to try and was them again. I also think I missed a little bit of the dull coat on the center lord.I may put a redder wash on the scar on the left lord. I think he came out better than the frontmost except for him.The skin was achieved using my airbrush. Reaper Master Series Tanned lowlight was the base coat and I sprayed Reaper Master Series Tanned Highlight from the top. This allowed for details to really pop. I'm still getting used to highlighting and I always fear I do it too strong, but I may start doing it more. I used Reaper Master Series Tanned Skin to clean up the model after the rest was painted. Usually covering up where I messed up and went over it with the red base coat of their clothes.The red is Minitare blood red. I didn't like using it with my brush and thought it was too watered down, but I like it for my airbrush. I may just keep using it with that and switch to my Vallejo blood red. I used Vallejo Vermillion on highlights. Once again, it was conservative and I probably could make it more pronounced.And here you can see more detail on my second spawn. I love the way his wood came out and think I'm getting much better with metal paints in general. my conservative highlights really come out a bit and add to the model.The clothin needs a little bit of more attention in the future. I did the same thing as above but was likely way too conservative with my highlights.My oil wash was way too watered down. While you can see the differences in some areas (feet, hands, wood), the skin was too cleaned up. Especially his knees and right hand.The horns I'm really happy with. I did a new technique of wash only. I hit the horns with white when the rest of the model was finished and then washed them multiple times with Agrax Earthshade. I really like how they came out. More pictures of this guy to come during my review!And further pictures of the finished squads and first spawn. They didn't have flock before, but I felt like the stone needed a little something more to break things up so I added a little bit of weed growth.
