The basic recipe is a Tausept Ochre basecoat, followed by successive drybrush passes of Averland Sunset, Golden Yellow and Flash Gits Yellow, then a Seraphim Sepia wash over everything to tone it down and blend it together.<br /><br />Cheers!Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-26702280105577408052015-05-03T03:28:53.562-06:002015-05-03T03:28:53.562-06:00Great work!

A perfect analogy!<br /><br />@CJ Kilbride: Thanks very much, man!<br /><br />@Zab: Cheers!<br /><br />@TheAmbit: I hear where you're coming from - the character models tend to have a lot more of the cables and whatnot so the blue ends up being much more prevalent than it is on the basic troopers.<br /><br />@Dave Weston: Cheers man - Most of the reason behind the IF's was to challenge myself with the yellow, I definitely struggle with the color as well.

Yellow is my favorite colour and when I see them now quite often they're gritty and battleworn and sepia washes really help. <br /><br />I chose DA's for the variety and the Fists weren't really covered back in the day and what with struggling with my own yellow Bloodbowl team didn't give it too much thought. I kind of regret that now but it's cool to see these.40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-15089141938021536062015-04-30T22:11:40.375-06:002015-04-30T22:11:40.375-06:00I'm not really a fan of so much of the crazy b...I'm not really a fan of so much of the crazy blue. If it were restricted to power fields on weapons that may be alright but my eye drawn to random power cables is strange. Not poorly painted or anything or inherently against the blue, but it's overused in some weird spots in my opinion.The Ambithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06594763430901658026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-47648311811977783502015-04-30T21:18:47.427-06:002015-04-30T21:18:47.427-06:00So good!So good!Zabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000817078818838705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-54721002634442018122015-04-30T19:38:50.293-06:002015-04-30T19:38:50.293-06:00Ace characters, man.
