WIP Space Hulk Terminators and CAT (5)


Work continues on the Space Hulk commission. Today I revisited the chipping on Omnio (having replaced my failing brushes), and painted up the CAT. I'm pretty happy with these now. Tomorrow I'll be working on Noctis. As ever, click on the images for larger versions.

WIP Space Hulk Terminators and CAT (4)



The first of the Terminators, Brother Omnio is pretty much complete, with just the varnishing phase to go. Heraldry is as per the Space Hulk Missions book. Note that this model is painted to what I'd call a 'Character' level, not the usuall rank and file.

The client didn't like the brass etch (I wasn't too sold on it either) so it's been removed. The current state of the mini is shown below. Click the image for a larger view.

WIP Space Hulk Terminators and CAT (3)


Well, after the Christmas / New Year break I'm rolling again. Didn't quite get this guy finished today - about 2 hours to go on him I think, mostly gems and smoothing out some of the blends. OSL heavy, as per the client's specification. You'll notice the highlight and shade glazes have bumped the saturation on the mini. Quite pleased with how this is going. Around 7 hours work on top of the zenithal work as shown previously.
