Grey Knights - Do you have any warp dust?

So upon closer inspection Draigo was Derpin a little too much. So i have repainted the one eye 

 

much less derp and not even a little bit of herp

Grey Knights - Do you have any warp dust?

It wouldn't be a Grey Knights army without a little Draigo now would it......

face done

I like your horn!

Grey Knights - Shiny M2

Have been adding ink glazes to the aegis armour to give it some warm/cold contrasts and make it generally more interesting that silver shaded with black.  

I have applied the following glazes/shades (all ink is Daler and Rowney FW artist acrylic inks) 

Darkest Shadow - Watered down Vallejo Model Air Black 

Warm Shade 1 - Yellow Ochre/Sepia ink (ratio - 1:1)
Warm Shade 2 - Sepia/Brilliant Yellow/Flame Red ink (ratio - 1:1:1) 
Cool Shade 1 - Indigo/Paynes Grey ink (ratio - 1:1) 
Cool Shade 2 - Paynes Grey 

I won't post pictures of all the different terminators however they are all done to this stage apart from their heads are not attached yet, instead I am just going to post the one with the head attached.

Further inking may be done once the other details are done and I am able to assess if more tonal variations are required.

Oh and I added some lightning effects to all the swords, Not sure if I posted pictures of them, but they can been seen in the pictures above just about.  My painting method and blog updates are akin to Fraggle Rock 

Grey Knights - Got Head

All the skin on the heads belonging to the Terminators, Librarian and dreadknight pilot are done.

close ups

I also have a couple of pictures of the a few of the blades

Dreadknight halberd

Couple of random swords

Grey Knights - Wearing a Mask

12 months on from the last grey knights I painted I had forgotten how much I hated masking off the curved blades (halberds and falchions for anyone that has never seen a grey knight I am sure such people exist)

After much mucking about on Tuesday evening I finally came up with an effective and easy and method, mask with tape along the straight part and then use Vallejo Masking Fluid for the curve, tried Humbrol Maskol but never got a decent edge and it smells like cack!

If I don't post it I risk it never happening and my models being confiscated by some scotsman.....

So apologies for the 1990's mobile phone quality camera photo.....

 

Grey Knights - Mucho Shiny

Inbetween moving furniture over the weekend and trying to climb over piles of crap that have come out of my old storage cabinets I managed to get a little airbrushing done, suffice to say my painting area and bedroom look like this lady resides there.....

Order will be brought to chaos tomorrow when the 2nd and 3rd new cabinets are delivered and all the shite can fly back in them :D

Anyway, shiny shiny knights of shiny 

Airbrushed with Mr Hobby Super Metalics, zenithal highlighting starting with "Super Iron", "Super Titanium", "Super Fine Silver" and then "Plate Silver Next".  So they are now ready for ink glazes and detailing etc.

SHINY!!!!!!!!!!

Grey Knights - Dreadknight

I have finished building the Dreadknight and I have canned the tabard idea, in theory it looked good but as mentioned by my friend Ead might have looked like an emergency escape slide.  Having sculpted it and put it in place I can safely say that it looked like Little Timmy the Terminator was on a day out with mummy and daddy at Crealy Adventure Park and got to go on the Dreadknight Slide.

So instead I have gone with a hanging pennant. This is a happy compromise that will give me a point of visual interest and somewhere to do a little freehand and it also helps to visually balance the model as the lower part is rather sparse.

ready for painting.
