Repainted up my Exarch - still needs a bit of clean up, but just pressing onward right now.

Amazing work, I really like how the banshees are turning out, and really like the T'au scheme!

I really like the colour palette that you have chosen.  It's looking very promising and I am sure that the final result will be impressive.

how are you doing the skin tones on Krondys? It's a really nice base and seems to take light greens well, might give it a try on my forest dragon :)

- Zenithal highlight of white primer over black
- You may find using a dark or just grey variant between the black and white more useful
- combination of fyreslayer flesh and darkoath flesh on the top of the wings - apply the lighter color over the zenithal highlight first
- I think I used straight up darkoath flesh on the bottom side of the wings or maybe wyldwood, can't remember
- Skeleton horde on the main body where the white primer is concentrated
- Blend in Aggoros dunes, nazdreg yellow, and some of the darkoath flesh and fyreslayer flesh around the relevant parts of the wing membrances, joints, bones, etc.
- Drybrush with gorthor brown
- lighter drybrush of balor brown in two or three passes
- lighter drybrush of balor brown mixed with Vallejo game air beasty brown
- Final drybrush of balor brown-beastybrown mix with a little kislev flesh mixed in

Something like that, I really should have written it down lol

Wow what a drop. Loving it all especially the dragon. Your prisms look great in that color scheme. Walkers, what can i say, have 10 plastics only 3 painted in all the years ive had them so seeing yours gives me hope.

rocking the warwalker back looks better than having the pilot sitting straight upright, nice idea :)

Thanks - a part of it is because I wanted it to look dynamic. The second part is the whole pilot cradle is deceivingly difficult to glue on the rest of the walker lol.

Loving the progress Myen'Tal; you're a machine! I think my favourite mini is the Spirit Seer. Really nice and clean. Krondys is also shaping up sooooo well.

The amount of progress you're making on the host of Walkers and Vehicles is jaw-dropping.

Amazing work bud; keep it up!

I love the banshees. They have been my favorite models and unit since 2nd ed. Thru the years ive seen so many paint schemes on them as well as mine. This scheme is one of my favs for sure. The light color really shows the details on the models. Keep it up.

Built 12 windriders over the weekend - left off the underslung weapon on every 3rd model to magnetize both shuriken cannon and scatter laser weapon options.

Still have 3 more to build.

I also have a farseer skyrunner and two warlock skyrunners to build.
