Assembly [Dryads] Bases and priming Miniatures after priming and sticking on the base Next steps Assembly of the Kurnoth Hunters Painting!

Changer Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Wow - such a quick painter and to such a high standard too. I'm particularly liking the ethereal aspects of the force, both the weapons and the revenants. How have you painted them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done the ethereal aspects as follows: Primed the whole miniature black Paint the skin, and the weapon two thin layers of Celestra grey Wash the skin and the weapon with a thin layer of Nihilak Oxide Dry brush the skin with praxeti white Some final highlights with white scar The next steps are for the hair of the revenants: Paint an all over layer of Celestra grey (you can do this simultaneously with the skin) Give the hair an all over layer of Ultuan grey Glaze the hair with a thin all over layer of Waywatcher Green Dry brush the hair with Ultuan grey Some final highlights with white scar Good luck!

judging_jester Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Love the scheme. I'm painting a sylvaneth force at the moment and have gone for a white and pink scheme (I currently wading my way through dryad forest). Fantastic work. Here's a few of mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the pink (: Where do you get your basing? Anyway, progress (forgot to make it step by step.. sorry): Next steps: Finishing the basing of the Kurnoth Hunters Painting Sylvaneth Wyldwood Thank you for following the development of a Sylvaneth army (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judging_jester Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 The basing was really easy to do. The normal bases, the GW mud, cork stone and then flocking and then add moss. Really easy and quick to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasshpit Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Great job so far. Love how you did the bodies of them mostly one color, like a tree ;), instead of the many different colored parts I've seen on GWs models. And those bases are just excellent. Looks very organic and alive. Great scheme overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GirlOfTheFirePath Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 Hi, Tommorow is the big day, I've finished the last f*cking stuff (: After placing the wyldwood on the board it just was too empty, so I've painted three more trees. At this point I've already packed all my stuff, so you'll have to wait untill tommorow (?) for the final result..

Zhorphorus Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 This looks amazing, I really like the weapons and tree revenant's skin - I know you mentioned that you used a thin oxide wash, I'm going for more of an icy effect and was wondering whether this comes out too green or not? Can't seem to get a blue hue the way I'm doing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't seem to get a blue hue the way I'm doing it Hi, thank you very much. I think using oxide for ice will make it too green. I would recommend watching the following video of Duncen from warhammer TV, could be helpful to make an ice-effect. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
