Andy's rise of undead ,new pics of Krell W.I.P

[scourgeoflight]

Hello guys,
im not quite new to the forum - https://www.vampirecounts.net/Thread-Scourge-rises ,but my VC's have been put aside for some time,sadly,but inspiration came to me when i bought Necromancer released in summer,the mini had so much life( undead essence) in it ,that it brought me back here from greenskins,hehe !
Here my new mini,and with new releases i hope t expend my undead host.

If you have any questions how i painted certain areas,dont mind asking,i'll help as much as i can!

P.S
My photo skill is quite crappy,so sry for photo quality

Looks good, especially the face.. although the eyes are kinda crazy. Is that intended ?
To bad the picture is a bit dark so it's hard to see all the details... but then again I can't say my own photography skills are any better =)

RE: Andy's rise of undead

Hehe,yeah the eyes,were old Necro might get crazy !

P.S
I'll try to get new pics in better shape !

Great necro! I hope you enter him into the contest that Santawraith is doing! I really like what you did on the skull there. The green is bright, but not overpowering. Great job!

Looking very good, especially the subtle lighting effect on the skull is a neat touch. Looking forward to more!

RE: Andy's rise of undead

Thx for the positive feedback,working on corpse cart atm,
cart finished only bodies(zombies) and witch to go !

 

[Santawraith]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

So...have I told you I love your necromancer?
Tell me how you did the slime on the skull. I really like the effect you got with it.

I so can't wait to see more of your work!

 

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

hehe !!! Thx Santa !!!

Well if really i went for glow effect on eyes,but every1 here on forums decided it was slime,so i'll go with slime ))) !!!

Well its quite easy if really ,u take some green color,like orkhide green or dark angels green ,moix it with water in in thin coat apply over area u want to see the glow (in my case skellies eyes,newcros fingers and a bit on coat) ,then u start adding a bit ligter green ,i would go with goblin and afterwards add scorpion green ,
and the final highlights were wared scorpion green+sunburst yellow+ a just a tiny bit of skull white !!!

Yeah,finally got my hands today on Crypt Horros,Krell,Black Knights ,a lot work in front of me !

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

This one is more like a test subject for me,the champion will be a match for me,will try to spend twice the tie on him ,and put much more effects on him aswell,especially the brutalised corpse on spike (on his back) !!!

RE: Andy's rise of undead

Nice work. Why the small round base? Is that just for painting on?

 

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

It is just for painting,i haven't finished this dude yet,still working on claws,hair and some fianly highlights on skin !!!
And of course the base itself !

 

[untitled_musketeer]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

I'm liking what I see so far. Your necro has a dark and sinister feel. Great palette choice too! Green skull of doom = genius! As for the Crypt Horror. It's a great scheme. I'm not a fan of how GW has started sculpting 'flat' textureless muscles, but you've done a great job of adding some subtle texture to them!

Keep em coming pal,

RE: Andy's rise of undead

Finally got my hands on mini that is simply amazing in my opinion aka Krell ,it has so much details ,looks like it will keep me for busy for some time !

[Johnny-Crass]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

Looking good so far mate and I can not wait to see Krell

 

[untitled_musketeer]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

I'm thinking about possibly painting Krell for GD this year!

 

[Malochai]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

I love the Crypt Ghoul, your painting style's brilliant, both clean in how it's done, and [good] dirty in the effect keep it up!

 

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

P.S

[Santawraith]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

they are a nice set of crypt horrors and I think the pictures are good and if they are even better in person then wow.

 

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead

Well here is WIP on Krell,
trying to do verdigris for first time in my painting xp ,can't say im proud of it atm,hope the final result,when the whole mini is painted it will look better,
because atm i almost done with armor,will add probably a but few more highlights :

Hope for some tips and advises You may give and tell me what you think of him

 

[Cuzzy]

RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

I'm not an expert but this kind of verdigris doesn't appear on gold and painted iron, maybe if you mad some places on the red armour where the collour let loose, and where some verdigris shows. The rest of the mini looks great. I really like the new Krell modes so I'll be watching this project closely

 

[scourgeoflight]

RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

Thx m8,i'll dome some repainting ))) !!!
As soon as i have any new progress ill add pics !

 

[Malochai]

RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

I'm agreeing with Cuzzy; I'm liking the new Krell and will be paying attention. What you have got really does look good to me - I'll be taking notes :tongue:

Oh please, he's a reanimated corpse! I'm sure he can make some sorta magical 'Verdigris' if he needs to, for aesthetics of course.

Besides the model looked quite fine as it stands, IMO; The teal over red might look a bit odd since the colours kinda clash (Warm vs Cool and such), but I liked how it was looking, just seemed like it needed the details to be picked out/completed.

C'est la vie though.
