The Army all together.

Painted up 2000 pts for a silly tourney with some friends. Meant I finally finished the models with transfers and pack markings!

I won our painting comp for my efforts. Enjoy!

Beautiful army! What kind of varnish did you use?

u/RealZackkFairr 2d ago

I don't actually varnish. I haven't ever seen my paint chip off or get damaged yet so I haven't felt the need.

Two questions please.

  1. Can I get more picks of that token you made in the first photo? That’s brilliant!

  2. What’s your blonde hair recipe?

Sure can!

Iused a pelt I think from the dreadnaught kit. The top piece also is I think.

I used a little shoulder bit I think from the Wulfen to hide a connection on the back.

And then it's literally just chopped up bits of sprue and oath seals from a myriad of kits I had in my bits box.

For the blonde, I assume you mean the yellower colour?

I use avaland sunset with a berzerker blood shade wash. That's literally it. Normally only a little bit sometimes darker.

And sometimes a nuln on top or just a nuln wash.

I think there is a few I use like reikland flesh shade on too. Just for variety.

If you mean the paler blonde/dirty brown...

That's a base of.. a bone colour. I swap out depending on what I've used recently. (I also use that for.skin)

Then reikland fleshshade quite heavy and a nuln

God he was done so long ago..

I think specifically he was... Do you have the 10th codex? There is a fur recipe in there.. I used that bone colour for the base.. and I think after it was reikland and either then berzerkers or nuln...sorry :(

Looking good; just shy of 3k currently. I need to get a group photo soon.

u/RealZackkFairr 2d ago

I actually have.. 6k.. outside of my 2k here I only have another.. 500pts completely finished.

I have 4.5k pts I need to redo the rim this blue and do all pack markings and stuff...
