Here's the second part of how I painted my Daemons and this time it's the turn of the Nurglings.

Painting - Part 1

As I keep promising to show how I painted my Daemons I thought it was about time that I did, so here is the first part and in it will be the Bloodletters.

Blood Crusher finished

Bases - And how I paint them

The bases were first painted with Adeptus Battlegrey.

Washed all over with Nuln Oil,

Dry Brushed with Adeptus Battlegrey

Then Dry Brushed with Codex Grey

Then Dry Brush with Fortress Grey

And finally a light Dry Brush with Dheneb Stone

Nurglings

Just a few photos of the Nurglings I've just finished painting, tutorial to follow.

It's been a been a long time..

Well it's been a long time, a lot has gone on since I last posted, I've moved flat so that took quite a bit of my time, I'm now settled in though. The New Chaos Daemons Codex has been released :) I haven't bought it yet but what I've seen on the web it looks rather good.

Whoop, Bloodletters finished

Well I'm pleased to say that my Bloodletters are now finished (apart from the base edges) this is the first unit I have ever completely finished, so I'm well pleased.

All in all they have gone really quite well, I've learnt alot, like batch painting is the best way to paint a unit and the new paints and shades are really nice.

I'll get some pictures up within the next couple of days and a step by step of how I painted them

Bloodletters nearly done

Well my bloodletters are so nearly finished its annoying, lol. only got the last highlight on the flesh on four of them to finish and then the swords, hopefully this weekend I will get them done.

When they are finished I'll take some time and post a long How to of how I painted them with paint colours etc.

Bloodletters so nearly finished

Well I've a really cool week off, haven't done that much painting got some done, it's been really nice just chillin ;) here are some photos of my progress do far, was going to get some done today but have gone down with a bit of a cold so not doing much today.

Hopefully the next post will be of them finished.

Bloodletters

My bloodletters, not quite finished though

New paints

Well my weekend of painting went very well, my bloodletters are coming on very nicely, and I've used some of the new paints. I bought a mixture of the different types Base (foundation), Layer, Shade (Wash) and took the plunge and bought a Dry paint the only new type I didn't get was the texture paint.

Ok what did I think of them, well..

Hill Finished

Forgot to post this I've finished my hill.

Daemons

Well I hope everybody had a good easter weekend, mine was cool didn't get much painting done but have tried to make up for it the last couple of days.

I've decided to try and get my bloodletters finished and they are comming along really well.

 

Temple of Skulls

Got my easter present early and its the Temple of Skulls :)

Its a really nice piece, very heavy and what a lot of plastic, should be good fun to paint i'm going to use the same colour and techniques that I've used for the hill and woods.

Hill and woods

Well, as I havent post for a while I thought I had better change that. Ive been quite busy with my painting have finished painting my gamming hill today, and finished painting the base for the woods.

Trees, still

Well as I was working the weekend I didn't get much done, finished painting the wash on the branches and on my day off this week I'm going to hopefully finish dry brushing them :)

All the horses are now tidyed up and ready to glue together.

Not the best afternoon

Well I have'nt had the best of afternoons with my painting, have started to paint the trunk details on the citadel woods and im not to sure if I like how it has come out,think I will look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow and see then :( have managed to get some more of my tomb kings done though so its not all bad :)

Horses

Well my tomb kings are comming on quite nicely, I've got four horses tidied up, the mould lines on them are awful but if I'm going to do them I might as well do it properly.

I've also stripped my bone giant and removed the base so I can paint and base it at the same time.

Tomb Kings

Decided to go back to my tomb kings, found a half finished choriot and all that needs to be finished is one side of the horse and the crew.
