Hello... Some of my Stuff

Want to show off your painted figures? Got a cool conversion? Need some ideas?

Hello... Some of my Stuff

Postby FlashyDoodLe » Wed Feb 05, 2014 6:26 am

Hey all!
I am new on these forums and would just like to Introduce myself and just show you a bit of my work.
I am known on DakkaDakka as Flying pooo and here as FlashyDoodLe (On steam as well)... yeah. I have a thing for silly names. :P

Anyway... I was looking around and came across all your competitions that you run on this wonderful forum and I thought it might help me actually get stuff done for once. As my hobby efforts have been quite dismal lately. I love a good competition. I'd also love to see all the new stuff and Inspiration and people and stuff you get from forums. :?: Terrible sentence I know...

As a gamer I am not much of a gamer at all. I mostly prefer to paint and convert. I also love making terrain. I am a mostly 40k (GW) person, little else really holds my interest long enough for me to really invest myself. Although I don't mind a dabble here and there.
I collect Ultramarines, Orks, IG and Necrons at the moment but I don't have much of it completed. :oops:
Anyway here is a bit of my work some old, some very old, very little new. :cry:

Ultramarines (Spartan themed)

So....
See you all around I guess! :D

Very nice work mate!
Welcome to the forum, I think you'll like the folks here.
And you still have time to jump into the objective marker competition, you've done a few nice ones there already I see.

The 'Rust' is not actually rust. It's worn down gold.
Here is how i did it. Or at least how I think I did it.
'Twas a while ago.

Usually for my gold I just do..
-Layer 1:1 VG Charred Brown VG Brassy Brass
-Thin watery layer VG Charred Brown in the crevices.
-Highlight with pure VG Brassy Brass highlighting raised areas.
-Wash GW Devlan mud.
-Sometimes I pick out the extreme edges with a lighter silvery metallic...

But this time I changed it up to make it look more worn.
I think I did this... Not too sure.
-Base coat VG Charred Brown
-Layer 1:1 VG Charred Brown VG Brassy Brass
-Watery layer VG Charred Brown (a bit thicker than a usual glaze) in the crevices and to add grime.
-Stripple 1:1 VG Charred Brown VG Brassy Brass on the raised areas and to simulate ware.
-Watery layer VG Charred Brown (a little thicker) in the crevices and to add grime.
-Stripple/Drybrush very lightly GW Boltgun metal to simulate further ware.
-Wash GW Devlan mud

Or at least that's how I would do it again if asked to try the effect again. :D
Ork Watchtower was done mostly with an airbrush with which I unintentionally achieved a great effect that I surprised myself with.


Can't multi-quote... :|

But thanks all for the warm welcome.
It's great to be here! :D

And I do plan to enter the objective marker comp. I already have one mapped out... :roll:
Objective markers are something I really like doing... :)
