I didn't use the brass on the dread only as the picture in HH book III was silver. I tried to cheat it a little by slightly bronzing all the silver running gear, like the arm, leg and hip joints. I also added touches of white, but they blend into the black due to the lighting! The only thing I cant decide on is how I am going to do the screens, for now I have just a green outline, so if you have any ideas, I wouldn't mind hearing them!<br /><br />...yes, any hand is an improvement in the FW one...<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07904465965003296427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6366962561146992018.post-90753634957959288152014-05-09T20:35:28.789+10:002014-05-09T20:35:28.789+10:00Thats a nice idea for the Scimitars - I have a set...Thats a nice idea for the Scimitars - I have a set that I wasn't sure what I would do with them basing wise when I finally start on my Heresy gear - with the wheeled bikes its easy enough to cant them over slightly. I think I'll use brass rod rather than plastiic flying stands though for that extra stremgth, particularly if I did end up going that bent over look.<br /><br />Again the chipping over the white is a great way to add flavour to what could have been a quite plain model. Once more that bronzed metal look suits perfectly - It would have benn good to see it carried over to the Dread.<br /><br />The new claw hand looks good - nice use of those chain attachments and a massive improvement over the FW one - not sure what they were thinking - definitely one that should have been rethought at design stage.<br /><br />Finally, the blue is a nice touch - very very subtle, but once you notice it, it makes perfect sense that's its there without being oversold. Also a nice re-purposing of the Deathguard model.LWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769460904008281915noreply@blogger.com
