WIP Blood Angel

  I've just started working on this Blood Angel tactical marine. So far he's just had a base coat and shading. I started off with a white undercoat as I wanted the mid tone colour to be Red Gore. This is my 1st showcase model that I've started with a white undercoat. I applied three thin coats of Gore to get a nice solid colour then shaded it with watered down Scab Red at about 1:1 mix with water. To further shade it I mixed Chaos Black with a tiny bit of Scab Red at about a 4:1 ratio. This was applied twice into the recesses at a very watered down consistency.
  Once highlighted I will post further pics but 1st I've got to decide weather to use Orange or Khaki to mix with Blood Red!

   Unfortunately the picture of the rear of the model has come out very small and I don't know how to increase the size!

Grey Knight Commission. May 2011

  I painted this Grey Knight army for Wargames Workshop in Northampton so if you would like to see it in person you can pop down to the shop.
  This is painted to gaming standard. At the time of photographing I had not yet painted the bases and unfortunately I didn't take any photos after painting the bases. The Dreadnought is from Fantasy Flight's Dust-tactics.

Welcome!
