Wraithknight and crimson hunter pics

[Farseer Kyladras]

Still practicing with the airbrush, experimenting (just a little bit!) with masking on the crimson hunter's left wing (large Saim-hann symbol) and the Wraithknight's head. Still a way to go with getting to grips with everything but I'm happy with these as part of my growing army

Only thing I may change is the colour of the crimson hunter's cockpit glass- I am using sotek green as a `spot colour` on a lot of my army but I don't think it looks right here. Any thoughts on this? Or anything else for that matter

Looks great Paul.
Did you mask those black stripes and star serpents?
Also can we see a better pick of WK cockpit?

[Farseer Kyladras]

Thanks Daz yes all the stripes were masked before painting. I'll get a closer pic of the cockpit in a bit...

And here it is:

Looks nice.

I think you should change the flyer's cockpit. Compare it to the pretty Wraithknight head, it's just flat and one color. The color itself isn't the problem, it just needs some depth.

Thanks G. how about a similar effect to the wraithknight head on the cockpit canopy?

That's what I had in mind.

[Farseer Kyladras]

Good man, thanks for the tip

Love the wraithknight head (Git!)

One criticism if any, but i think the guns need to pop more. The bronze kinda gets lost against all that red. I dont know how to solve it as I have the same problem with my fire dragons

[Farseer Kyladras]

Yeah I was thinking the same with the guns, the problem is that prior to getting the airbrush I hand painted 10 jetbikes and 10 dire avengers. The guns on them were kept simple to keep with my painting ability lol so once I got the airbrush and moved onto the rest of the army I had a choice of repainting the original models or painting the new ones to match and given that the entire 2000 point army is assembled and I don't intend adding any more to it I went with the easy option of matching new to old...

Now my next army project I intend to go a bit wilder with popping colours

I can relate to that. Keep up the good work

Cheers matey and the head was a 5 minute job, dead easy with the airbrush you should give it a try
