Dark Angels - Warhammer 40k

[David 317]

Hi All,


Here are some WIP - Dark Angels from the Dark Vengeance set.


They need basing and the odd bit of detail.


Airbrushed base coat then brush painted.


They show the progression of my painting abilities.


Hope you like them.


Regards


David

Very good I like WH40K figures I'm thinking of doing a dio


If you don't mind me giving a little bit of advice , you know you've done the dry brush effect on your weapons and insignia if you do that on the armour edges it will look really good


I hope you don't mind me passing this on

Hi Alan,


You are spot on about the dry brushing!


It wasn't until I got near to finishing them that the penny dropped!


It's all a learning curve!


I have some armour and their enemies The Chaos Space marines to perfect my skills on.


They are great looking figures with lots of possibilities.


I used some Mr Color paint on the wheel wells of my Zero and thought that it would make a great Space Marine armour colour.


Thanks for the comment.


Happy modelling.


Regards

I have been building war hammer vehicles which the pics are on here, I have proposed a GB on war hammer as it is out of most people's comfort zone so it should be interesting and I hope it goes ahead. The figures are well done they do look the dogs well done and nice job.

Nice job.


A technique which works well with these is zenithal highlighting, where you make a take a lighter shade of your base colour and airbrush from above. Then do the normal shading and highlighting.

Hi Dave,


Thanks for the Zenithal highlighting tip. I will get that a go in the future.
