Finally finished the four infantry frames for the Manachean Bulls with the Ogryn:
Additionally, I built 8 Leman Russes, 4 Malcadors, and 2 Baneblades! (partially). I came up with a paint scheme that will hopefully let me paint them super fast with high quality. However, all schemes need a test. So, I painted one Leman Russ completely to make sure the scheme worked.
The tank was primed Grey Seer on the sprue. Then, partially assembled (turret, body, and rear struts seperate). Here is the scheme after that:
- Metal areas were painted flat with Two Thin Coats brand Sir Coates Silver.
- The entire tank (except the dude popping out of the hatch) was washed with 50/50 Nuln Oil/Lahmian Medium.
- Yellow areas were carefully painted with Iyanden Yellow contrast.
- Blue areas were carefully painted with Asurmen Blue contrast. Lines were cleaned up with Grey Seer and Nuln Oil.
- Gold metal is Retributor Gold with a light wash of Gulliman Flesh where there was detail
- Tiny details were added, along with decals.
Note to all LI players who want to build Russ tanks: the rear struts WILL BREAK FOR LIKE NO REASON. Be EXTREMELY careful when clipping them off the sprue or cleaning them.
Next: more tanks!
