The land speeder and bitz were constructed with magnets to give me maximum options. I have two other Typhoon land speeders that have some magnetized hard points for upgrade-ability, but less total options. I'm going to wait and see how the first turns out before I go hitting the rest. All I know is, Typhoon land speeders rock and when you have three of them you shoot six krak or frag missiles!
I am intrigued on your painting of the white robes. khaki base then layer up to white. How exactly do you do that?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your interest! Bottom line up front is I use the layering method. I start with a base of scorched brown. Sometimes I leave black in the most recessed areas. From there it’s a layer of graveyard earth leaving scorched to show from the recessed areas and thin triangles where the robe might be tattered. The next layer is a mix Graveyard Earth with Bleach Bone, again allowing a bit of the darker colors to show from the edges. A quick thin wash of Devlan Mud draws the colors together and then I begin blending a watered down Bleach Bone to accentuate raised areas. If there is too much contrast from the final highlight I’ll apply another thin wash of Devlan Mud. Oh, I also use a matte varnish to seal it up and dull the area which better distinguishes it from the armor and accoutrements.
