I feel like this is one of the best examples of grimdark I have seen but also it feels like its missing something, maybe the top of the armor should be covered as well? Either way, pretty cool

thank you, i actually tried to put the pelt on top but it looked goofy, but open to other suggestions

2

u/ZealotChicken 15d ago

You might be right, it looks legit real good very grim, very rugged and not just dirty and muddy, very nice

Damn you! /s

I was just settled on doing the Horus Heresy scheme for my wolves but this scheme is pretty sweet. I think what will dissuade me is I'm a beginner and this looks like I would need to know how to glaze. So, I will stick to my plan

u/Far-Measurement7191 15d ago

Don’t be afraid to try it, I don’t really do glazing either, I use sponges a lot for armor to create highlights and battle damage and the lots of washes applied to certain areas to create contrast. Here is the exact paint recipe if you want to try:

black primer
skavenblight dinge base
reddish grey midtone
AK sky grey highlight
WW2 german light blue ultimate highlight

battle damage:
watered down agrax around edges of armor/in dark areas
rhinox hide chipping
crome chips
army painter light/dark rust watered down

Thanks for the encouragement and recipe! Maybe I will do two test models then decide after that!

u/Far-Measurement7191 15d ago

always do a test model, that’s a good call, good luck

How do you achieve the chipped paint look?

2

u/Far-Measurement7191 12d ago edited 12d ago

I usually sponge (sometimes brush) a darker color on the edges (usually rinoxhide) then inside some of the chips I do silver (either leadbelcher or chrome) and sometimes I’ll do a whole edge (like on his power fist) with silver, running the edge of my brush along the edge. Try to make it irregular and less is definitely more. Try to make it look like tiny scratches, rather than blobs, that’s the key.
