But I thought, now that I'm starting a daemon force, I'd blog herer and get (hopefully) a lot of tips and constructive criticism! Here's my first unit of screamers: The next unit (of four) will be pink! I've got photos of my flamers and a herald of Tzeentch, but I'll post those at a later time. Greetz, Bjorn.

Keep up the good work. -Kristov -------------------- I have no idea how in the world I got my avatar picture of my Bloodthirster to look so good. I didn't photoshop it, all I did was snap it and crop it, and it came out uber bad ass as you can see.

Also, I'd love to hear what your thoughts were as you decided the color scheme, conversions if applicable, what paints brushes and techniques you like, your painting inspirations, and WIP pics if you have any. Looks great so far and I can't wait to see what else you have to share with us! -------------------- And Trogdor smote the Kerrek and all was laid to Burnination!

Then mixed it with more and more ice blue, until the blue really shines through and then mixed it with white until it looked really pale. I washed the recesses ( between the scales too) with hawk turquoise. The intention was to make a figure that looks like it has only one colour on it, but had several near look-a-like colours to create depth. The colours took a little bit of blending, but I focused that technique on the wings. From basecoat to end result: 4 hours I use paint brushes from the citadel range and my favorite is 2/0. I search the internet a lot for examples. If I see something I like, I base my models upon that. Next up: a unit of 4 screamers, going from a mix of ice blue and tentacle pink up to almost white. Stay tuned...
