Legio Throwdown: Children of Barbarus (DeathGuard40k)

Love the kitbashes there! Looking forward to seeing what progress you make!

Oh, the airbrush is meant for the white if you want to do pre-heresy Death Guard.

I saw this tutorial and now i want to try airbrushing too for the base and the light source.

Just buy the GW White Primer lah. I think one can is enough for the whole army. It's cheap kan. If I'm not wrong, only RM45 at Alvins compares to getting the Airbrush set.

Airbrushes are SWEET- a real game changer. Well worth the investment. Over time, you'll make your money back in not buying expensive cans of primer anymore.

Looking forward to seeing just how pestilent this army will get!

Pro-painter always knows better. So Beobot, you got your answer already?

if you can afford it --> go for airbrush. Well worth the investment.
if you're like me --> just get the spray can

Pax, you should ask Iqbal how he did his DG. Gila cun displayed at Alvin's

Orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr if you're dead poor like me, use a brush and paint. *sniffles* Haha! Thanks guys.

That brings back old memories ... I used to do that for the 1st few years in this hobby wat hahaha..

I still do this right now =P some spot just can't be spray paint and need to be touch up by brush

Agreed!!! Didn't know GW spray is available here. Those black or white cans could really come in handy. Airbrush plus cool gas mask. Badass la...

Just done with my paint test. Model not fully complete want to try using rust pigments and some highlighting... I think it looks sorta ok...

Pics are a bit fuzzy but I like what I see thus far. The old school bolters are a great choice, and the scheme looks suitably pestilent. Nice!

what green did you use for your plague marine?

Cool . Nice progress there bro. Can't wait to see the whole squad done and presented next friday night. Gonna be an awesome sight.
Now I need to get off my arse and start painting like mad.

How are you planning to base them?

ty guys,

Limp base was steel legion darb > then Drybrush nurgling green, then mix of nurgling green with screaming skull(bone color) for bit more highlights...

I tried this with normal washes. - Reikland flash shade for the horns and pus, and bit of leviathan purple for the shoulder pad puss plus a few bits of armor for some plague goodness. I use Army painter wash for this model.

my next marine i am going to do the same except will dip them in army painter dip... and use the matte spray a little to drop the gloss slightly and see how it comes out...

I really like the shoulder pad the pic does not do justice to how well the pox came out

For my Chaos Lord I am going with scibor miniatures

link here

I bought its chaos Lord Mainly cause he got a kick ass mace for my black mace, and I really dont fancy using a special char, or the chaos termi lord from GW... Will be doing some nurgle gifting for the lord using green stuff.







and the base for my terminator squad will be





I figured since the terminators and the lord are deepstriking from the warp they should be bringing some warp friends with them

btw does anyone knows how to make those water effects blood splatter on the lords mace?

Tamiya Clear Red is a nice color for blood n' gore, along with some other shades of red. I think there's a tute on From The Warp blog or some such place. Maybe Awesome Paint Job...?

yup, tamiya clear red, it tend to become pretty sticky when it was out of bottle, some pulling and adjusting it is not difficult to achieve the effect

will check it out ty jeff

found it... sigh fail mr faizal fail.... tutorial

Yup, that link works but felt a bit Khorne-ish.

There's also the Tamiya Clear Red + Black Ink/Badab black combination, then applying it with comb and toothbrush to represent the blood spatter.

Or if you're looking for a 'gore on rotting tissue effect', try giving Carroburg Crimson a shot.

Just a thought, will your Death Guard be entering the Nurgle realm? If you do, feel free to ask me for pointers.
