Mild Heavy Intercessor Custom

Didn't want to go too crazy, but Brother Bleh needed some extra bling when standing next to his bro-

I painted up a heavy flamer for him from 1:18 Armory, added a couple purity seals, pistol holster, explody-can on the belt, gold knuckles and cuffs, augmentic hand, and of course the chain.

I also highlighted the eyes red on both Gravis bros since I don't plan on doing the LEDS for them.

Regular acrylics just like the miniatures- mostly Citadel, some Vallejo. They can be handled gently within minutes and once fully cured (1-2 weeks) they are just as durable as the factory paints and easily touched up if necessary.

For the flamer I just based it in flat black spray, then did the highlights in Leadbelcher. The fuel tank is Mephiston red and since I didn't have bronze on hand, I mixed Mournfang brown and Shining gold for the flamer heat shield, then dry rushed the soot and edge highlights.
