@Dread: No worries and glad you stopped by! Yeah - I bought the War Cry box for myself

. Still waiting to see what comes in the Christmas cache!

Nice to hear about your Necrons - can't wait to see the status on those!

And then the colonnade he is on comes next

The green is just the right shade. It provides an apt contrast to the white and it has turned out very well.

Myen'Tal · « **Reply #1244 on:** December 20, 2022, 11:05:30 PM »

Reinforcements have arrived!

As I get back into the swing of painting - muscle memory is returning to my brushwork. Getting more efficient, smoother, and cleaner.

Got everything I have so far assembled and a pair of sentinels painted. Got a few things to clean up before calling it tabletop standard.

Irisado · « **Reply #1245 on:** December 21, 2022, 07:32:39 AM »

That is a very impressive archer model and the green and gold combination is working very well. I look forward to seeing how the entire force turns out.

Myen'Tal · « **Reply #1246 on:** December 21, 2022, 09:50:26 PM »

Thank you, Irisado!

Another Sentinel done.

Tried the popular new slapchop method out on the Shrine Luminor and Alarith Mountain Spirit. Here's the results!

Irisado · « **Reply #1248 on:** December 24, 2022, 06:43:53 AM »

I have no idea what that method entails, however, the result looks very impressive to me. The water has a beautifully icy theme to it, so assuming that this was your intention the terrain feature has turned out very well.

It's like a brush-made zenithal - then you use heavily thinned contrast to block in the colors. This was my first attempt and not perfect, but am happy with overall success.

The luminor shrine came out better than I expected!

Looking great as always.

Merry Christmas!

Thank you, Dread!

Merry Christmas!

Reinforcements have arrived from Hysh!

Also got some painting done - mainly blocking in colors. Will do some cleanup before proceeding to washes.

Got some reinforcements assembled!

Still aiming to get a few more kits done by Saturday!

2000 Point list ready for this weekend!

This is a very impressive force that you've assembled. I really do like the colour combinations. Once everything is finished, it's going to look very good indeed.

Myen'Tal · « **Reply #1254 on:** February 10, 2023, 05:00:34 PM »

Back after a long break and taking my time with this batch.

Re-learning how to apply edge highlights cleanly again.

Working on Lyrior - finding my brush skills again.

It's been a little while.

Irisado · « **Reply #1256 on:** February 14, 2023, 06:39:38 PM »

The red looks so good. It has a very consistent and clean appearance that really allows the colour to come through very well. I would say that your brush work is very much in stroke

.

Sir_Godspeed · « **Reply #1257 on:** February 14, 2023, 07:10:23 PM »

Is the deeper color in recesses on the legs (along the bones/tendons) of the mount a wash or is it just the paint settling naturally?

Myen'Tal · « **Reply #1258 on:** February 14, 2023, 07:22:02 PM »

Hi Sir_Godspeed,

The fur / skin on the mount is a number of thinned contrast colors - blended in more toward the lower legs / concentrated fur areas. I finished with a wash of beserker red + reikland fleshshade.

@irisado: Thank you!

Myen'Tal · « **Reply #1259 on:** February 26, 2023, 11:37:57 PM »

Gearing up to begin working on Aeldari this week!

Took about a month long rest from life stuff. Coming back to the hobby with a renewed mind. Ready to try-hard again.
