Looking good. Congrats on getting so many models sorted and good luck with the rest of the Skaven and all the slaves...

As for tips, maybe try adding in highlights or some washes to give the colours a bit more depth? Try it on one mini and see what happens I guess. Obviously it will take longer to paint the same number of minis. Kudos for trying the freehand stuff on the banners too.

Very nice, I like the cold-looking scheme.

Is that the whole unit though? If it is, why did you take full command on an MSU unit!?! :? :shock: :cry:

White Lions are looking good. I take it they are the new plastic ones? I've recently bought some, might have been a mistake as I'm not sure if I can get any red on them.

Only another 35 to go! It's going to look great when they are finished.

Looking forward to seeing your dragon too.

35 will take a liitle time.... :wink:

dragon must be finished sunday at least.... what i have painted until now he looks real good...

plastic ones of course.... red on them of course it can...just paint it... (my advice take white undercout or black painted to white/grey before you sart painting the red that makes it a lot easier...)

Slow and steady wins the race my friend, consistency is the only thing you can hope for with painting. I certainly can't sit down and paint a unit in a week however I know people that can, they're the same people that don't have 2 jobs, 4 kids and the rest of the attachments.

You're making progress (and good process at that) and that's all that matters!

Looks pretty nice. Good blue and white.

I like the thread title now. 'Korhain's painting log...dragon without wings!...' hehehe ;)

You do realise that they fly further with wings? :D

It's a nice choice of colours but I think the white needs a little shading & highlighting, especially on such a cool centerpiece model. At the moment, the skin, teeth, etc all just blur together. Maybe try it out on something smaller first so if you make any mistakes/changes it won't matter too much. I'd maybe suggest and wash of a light brown or grey and then highlight up through some whites blended with your wash colour all the way to pure white.

well i already thought that by my self :wink:
you can see it a little on the back of the dragon, i did a wash of a lot of water some badaba black and a little skull white, then you got some kind of grey wash...
a 2nd layer is coming but i will w8 for it until all my archers are white undercoated , so i can do them both at once with the same wash...

I'm glad your going to add a wash, it would be a shame to leave it plain white. Looks very promising though. Are you planning on white wings or a contrasting colour?
