Some great painting indeed. I’d love to see some OSL coming from the Fireborn though. You’ve got some of the best painted fire I’ve seen, and adding glow would really make them special
ma una domanda: le IG con ascia delle prime foto le hai messe su una basetta da carro?

Eh sì, sti modelli sono impossibili da sistemare sulle basette da 20mm, così ho provato con un basettone multiplo 100x50
però non mi ha soddisfatto molto, mi sa che tra un po metto tutti su basette 50x50
in english: I found quite impossible to ranks them on 20mm bases, so I decided to use a 100x50 base
In fact, actually I don’t realy like the final effect, so I will put them on 50x50 base soon

Thaks!
you are relating to the armours or to the bases? I’ve tried, but I’m a too lacking painter! x.x
wow! those are incredible! I love the blue detail/patina you've done!
is it possible for us lesser mortals to get a tutorial on how you painted your fire effects?

certainly! I've done the blue oxidation adding some hawk turquoise to the new lahmian medium (this color is really really useful!), whereas for the kdaai I started filling the holes and all the resin's imperfection (a black fissure is very annoying, especially on a yellow base!) with liquid green stuff, then I undercoated the models with the white spray.
After those preparation stages, I started with a base of fiery orange, then I applyed a washing of bad moon yellow mixed up with lamian medium (1/1, approximately). At this point, I restored the fiery orange where necessary and began the highlights: first with blazing orange, then blood red, khorne red and at last a final sharp whith rhinox hide! If the transition between colors is too noticeably, add a halfway mix up
alla faccia! veramente belli sia le Guardie che l’hobgobbo!!!
lasciamo stare sull’irreggimentare i ceffi maledetti: io ne ho convertiti una ventina con le grandi armi e c’ho sudato veramente l’impossibile, quando ho attaccato con le Fireglaves volevo morire!!
il trick dell’hawk+medium lo proverò anche io, è sempre un mezzo casino trovare una tonalità “giusta” per il verderame e questa mi piace parecchio!!!
