RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

Its not a colour clash, its a contrast. There is a subtle but important difference between the two.
Also, the skulls are likely bronze, not gold by the looks of them, and the red armour would be bronze armour with red paint/lamellar over it.
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

Thx guys for the tips,
yeah it's bronze not gold,but here in pics u can't really tell,
looks like i have to do some wonders in phoyoshop otherwise some pics look total crap,u even cant pick the details i tried to make .
Yesterday finished my crypt horror,only base needed ,and did a bit more highlights on armor,tried te white edge same as on GW site,and a bit verdigris highlights aswell !
Ill try to post pics today,if i have time.
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

Love the look you've done on him so far. Remember, in the world of fantasy anything goes! The shading on the armour is looking great, as is the bone! Is the bronze NMM? If it is then I must congratulate you because it looks really good!

I can't wait to see it finished, keep us updated!

As I've said I'm not an expert, and though I like the explanation of magical appearing verdigris, I'm still convinced that the verdigris on the red would look a little bit better with just some grey from the iron showing around it, to make it look like the original red paint chipped of and shows verdigris.

If that is NMM then I quit life; That looks way too good (And or like it actually shines a la metallics xP) to be just browns/yellows.

Although I did go to the GW site and look around the WD archive for their painting articles and saw a pro-guide for.. I think Manfred? They painted their gold/bronze with metallic colours mixed with browns/yellows.. A sort of in between NMM and normal, it actually looked really rather well.
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell

No guys ,this is not NMM,too far to get uber results with that,have been trying though,with more basic models toachiev NMM ))) !!!

Here they are guys,i hope you can give some ideas :vampire3:!!!!!
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell+1st finished Crypt Horror

I'd suggest using the same skintone as your previous horror (or at least close to that tone). This will make it a more unified gang (this grows more important when the unit grows).
Good luck with the next crypt horrors :)
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead+WIP Krell+1st finished Crypt Horror

Yeah will probably stay to same tone,only i'll try to give it more realstic tone,by making it more blended intead of sharp highlighting

Is the troll just a more green colour than the Horror? I feel like those two are very similar at any rate; But it is probably just a good idea to stick in the colours you have already lol.

I actually liked the sharp highlighting you did on that Horror, like a lot. It's a pretty cool effect/looking. I'm interested to see though how different it looks/feels if you end up doing the same general colours but with more blending over the sharper lines.

Great work though. I think part of the reason I like the sharper highlights/lines is partially from my love of Superheroes/comics. It's got that really comic-feel to it. Not like funny, but like, I dunno, like when Comic-book art has the thick outline of characters, or that kinda feel? I dunno hard to explain.

Tawg:Is the troll just a more green colour than the Horror? I feel like those two are very similar at any rate; But it is probably just a good idea to stick in the colours you have already lol.

The troll is not quite the colour as horror,i used more warm colour mix with green,the base was knareloc,but on pic it might seem so,but yeah i'll stick to standart aka first horror scheme,will do soe final assebmly and base it,today evening or tomorrow the challenge will begin
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead finished Crypt Horror and need help for further work

The lord krell looks awesome he has always been one of my favorite of character's

I would have to agree with the same tones you should stick with the first one. As others said it makes things more unified.
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead finished Crypt Horror and need help for further work

Necromancer looks FANTASTIC! Love the detail-work around the skull in his hand. Very, very nice!

The Crypt Horror looks great as well. I like the "fresh" look you've accomplished with the spine coming out of his back. Well done!

Brahm
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead finished Crypt Horror and need help for further work

Nice work, though the troll does appear to have dandruff.
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead finished Crypt Horror and need help for further work

Sanai its sweat drops,hehe :D
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead finished Crypt Horror and need help for further work

Very impressive painting, could you give me a guide on how you achieved the colours on Krell, especially the bronze and red? :)

Red-well its quite easy if really,u start with red tone,personally i started with scab red,than you start adding +red gore to mix,in even portions,but you must apply paint on the model in thin layers,otherwise i will look crap,believe me, afterwards when you get to red gore start adding blood red to the mix and start layering till you get to pure red blood . Krell is undead so i decided that further highlight on the very edges with warm colour won't do the trick,so i started with very thin skull white lines over edges,and dont mix white with red,pink isnt cool on undead,hehe ))) !
Regarding the bronze,well i started with tin bitz,afterwards game model a shade with devlun mud,afterwards layered everyhtinh except deepest parts with tin bitz again,afterwards i started adding dwarf bronze, and started layering,till i achieved the effect i desired,afterwards,start adding small droplets of mightril silver to the mix ,when model looks okaj,just make slightest edge highlight with pure mithril silver !
Well i hope this helps ,if You or any other have questions ,dont be shy to ask.

Ill be adding some new pics of Krell tomorrow,finally had time to wokr on him,finished with leather parts,black fur,now working on human/leather cloak !
 
RE: Andy's rise of undead finished Crypt Horror and need help for further work

Here my Krell,not finished,now working on cloak,want to make it look good
