| LaughingChicken |  April 2014 Paint Threat - Malifaux Executioner - COMPLETE!! + Bonus LM Blood Bowl Team |
 Member Since: September 24, 2013  RK: 1 MP: 0   | Tuesday April 1, 2014 10:13 PM Looks like it's going to be a busy month at work, so I'm only aiming at getting my Executioner painted nicely and I'll add bonuses if there's time. He's already primed and pinned, and the base is primed as well. [[Edited by LaughingChicken on Sunday April 20, 2014 7:31 PM]] [[Edited by LaughingChicken on Tuesday April 29, 2014 12:25 AM]] |

Member Since: September 24, 2013 RK: 1 MP: 0 | Sunday April 20, 2014 7:30 PM I managed to get a few hours on the end of a brush over the past week so I managed to get the Executioner finished!Here are the WIPS: Basecoat w/ Panzer Aces Shadows Flesh  Bringing flesh up through Panzer Aces Flesh Base and Highlights Flesh (didn't go to straight highlights flesh - thought it would look to pale/clean). He's looking pretty grubby right now, but I took some time later and smoothed him out.  Put in the black (VMC) on his cowl, pants and over anything metal. Boots & leather were painted VMC goldbrown and shinguards VMC Hull Red  At this point, I cleaned up the flesh a bit, painted the metal w/ a mix of VMC black and VMA Gungrey, and gave the boots a wash with VGC Sepia wash.  Highlighted metal with mix of VMA Gungrey and VMA Steel up to straight VMA Steel on the edges  Highlighted boots a little bit and attached the second claw. Played around with some pigments to show some soot build up on his shoulders from the little engine on his back, pretty happy with the results (although they're showing up pretty lightly in the pic)- At this point, the Executioner himself is finished!   The base was pretty straightforward. Played with the pigments quite a bit to get the ground looking right. Once I was happy and the pigments were sealed, I added some clump foliage. A couple quick touch-ups/highlights and the base was done.   Put the Executioner on his base, and he's finished!   Hopefully I'll have some time to get in another bit of painting before the end of the month  |

Member Since: September 24, 2013 RK: 1 MP: 0 | Monday April 21, 2014 10:48 AM The skin was looking pretty blotchy (as you can see from the WIPs). I just went back over (and over, and over...) with a really thinned down Flesh Base on the most prominent areas then mixed in a little highlights flesh and went over it (and over and over...) for the highlight. My painting station is in the basement and I was working right under the heat register when I first started the executioner (and it's been cold) so I think that caused the paint to dry to quickly  I've since installed a register that I can close when I'm painting. |

Member Since: September 24, 2013 RK: 1 MP: 0 | Tuesday April 29, 2014 12:24 AM Went looking for something for a bonus that wasn't Malifaux and found my Lizardmen Blood Bowl team that's been waiting for some paint for a LONG time. So here they are in their newly painted glory.Primed  Basecoat  Sepia wash, red basecoat on armour  Magically finished Sorry got involved and forgot to keep taking pics Skink  Saurus  Kroxigor  Team Photo  Nothing too fancy, but they look WAY better on the Blood Bowl pitch now |
