For... said tutorial... do you want the same colors and how I did those or just a basic how to do the stripes? Gonna see if i can get a decent enough video possibly or maybe set up a time for a live video or discord thing?
Just built these two Lumineth models, not gonna start em for a little bit, but I'm debating on their color schemes. Part of me is thinking the blue color of my Dawnriders for the Ballista and the green theme for the Bannerblade. We will see, it is very likely that I'll instead do the Volcanic/Destruction theme
Please do a video. I never manage to have my schedule correlate with people on Discord. Which is why our Pathfinder thread doesn't go anywhere ( )
Very nice models. But if my eyes do not deceive me there is no converting going on here Grrr, Imrahil
They are indeed! And haha, yeah! Just pure GW sculpts, I really just love how they are... but I'd be lying if i dont want at least one Ballista to make into a mobile chariot
I am slowly working on the armor bits, though there is still some fur work to do. For the armor im adding in oranges and red trim for the chest and leg armor, im essentially just rearranging my Vanari colors a bit. For the large gems that are yellow im going to work small crescents in until i reach a nearly white yellow to mimic a sun (as seen on the saddle fabric) Slowly but surely
Great work so far, such a cool model. My one critique would be that the orange on the armour is too close in colour to the brown skin and fur of the beast and gets lost a bit.
Noted, Ill see what I can do! Just a general question, if you could or wanted to do a discord hobby thing, when would be good for you? I only ask and press simply because I have a lot of time on my hands and and pretty wide open atm. This question for a voice chat hobby time in the LO discord (here: https://discord.gg/CheCGEak ) is open to everyone!
Thank you! Im definitely enjoying the process and really loving the model itself; a lot of different textures to play with. Definitely a favorite if not my favorite model (even with its flaws). I was thinking with the orange to build it up from this base color (Jokaero Orange) up a couple shades using Troll Orange and Dragon Bright Orange with possibly one more including shades. It's very possible orange hust isn't a good color, but I want to try as uts a big color in my Vanari, definitely not a set thing though. What color would you suggest? Thanks for the feedback!
That could work, nothing stopping you from painting over it if it still doesn't work after that haha. It's hard to suggest a colour really because I know you have lore reasons for your colour choices. The most complimentary colour would be a blue or maybe a green blue.
I actually almost did Blue or Green as both are a part of my theme lol We'll see what happens, I likely wont change it so drastically at this point, but if the orange indeed does get lost I'll switch it up a bit within loreful colors.
Had a building itch, so decided to finally build some skinks. Also as hype for the new Total War Warhammer 2 dlc! I think I have 12 or so more in a box i still need to find, then some saurus
So, decided to try out a green gem instead of a yellow, and I really dig it. My wardens already have green gems on their shields so it already feels in place. I still need to go back and work on the fur a bit, but I've definitely gotten carried away with the armor haha. For the fur I kinda want to listen the mane up just a tad in a few spots, I did the same for the High Warchief and it came iut pretty well. We shall see how it all works out, but im pretty excited about it. The horns are what always have me the most puzzled, im debating ash colored but really not sure
The armor looks amazing, I love the gem in it. The green pops real nice against the orange and black. Keep up the good work. Grrr, Imrahil
Thanks man! I think it'll look even better ojce some gloss is on it, but definitely pretty happy with it. Ive been using the citadel gem technical paints, but wanted to get back into hand painting them; makes a world of difference if the time is taken for sure. I love the armor, absolutely love it, still got lots to go tho
