Painting a Grey Knight Terminator - Silver Metallics

Hi,

This step was experimental for me because for two years I painted mainly NMM and this was my first serious try to paint metallics. So here you have what I was able to do.



I experimented with some shading and directing the shining properties of metallic paints. You can do it by shading selected areas with some washes and in those places the metallic paint will lose its shine and will be darker.

As for the paints I used:
- Boltgun Metal as base,
- then I made a heavy wash with Dabab Black,
- the next step was to correct some places with Boltgun Metal,
- first highlight was made with Chainmail,
- and the final one was made using Mithril Silver.
- then I have done some shading to direct the reflected light and make some contrast and for this I used glazes of: Dabab Black Wash, Asurmen Blue Wash and a glaze I made from Vallejo Heavy Violet.

Let me know If you like the effect.

Grey Knight competition entry

Hello,

I've decided to paint a GK Chapter Master assebled from the new plastic kit and a psycannon from old metal GK terminator. I couldn't show you this picture yesterday because I was unable to locate my super glue. I don't have a bloody idea about a base for him. Right now I've got two ideas: snow and ice covered base and urban base. I'm going to collect and paint a GK army so this will be a seriuos choice for me. While painting I'll make some pictures, so maybe someone could use my ideas on his/her models. I'll begin painting this little plastic guy on Wednesday, so expect some pictures ;)


Regards,
Gimiak

Grey Knights competition 2011 plus some pictures



Hi,

Hopefully you have started painting a Grey Knight terminator for our small international painting competition. My brothers didn't write anything about the offcial begining. Yes, on 8th April the Brush Brothers Grey Knight competition have started. You got time till the end of April to paint exactly one terminator with base. Please check rules for our competition clicking here.

As for me... due to my lack of time I was unable to paint anything in the previous period. I've only began working on my Assault Squad... Somewhat lazy...
Have you seen the new Grey Knight plastic kits? What do you think about them? I've purchased a copy of GK codex and after reading I've decided to start second army. Orks will be the thrid one. As for the new plastic kits, I've opened terminators and regular gk marines. Very nice spures with lot of options and some nice ornaments and purity seals. I've already cleaned and assaebled six paladins / terminators. Below are my proposals for assembling.






Sixth one I didn't show you, because he's not ready yet. Today I'll finish the last element of it and take a picture of him. The mini which I'm writing about will be my Chapter Master.

Regards,
Gimiak
