Forgemas 2014 - Pre Heresy Death Guard Mortis Pattern Contemptor Dreadnought Showcase

Hi All and Happy New Year,

My forgemas entry was completed a couple of weeks ago but with family time and other commitments I have not got round to putting it up here.  I feel this model is my first model where all of the techniques for weathering I've been learning in the last few months have been put to use on one model.  I use sponge weathering first attempted on my Imperial Knight. Weathering powders both wet and dry.  I also used weathering liquids for the first time to apply a rust affect to rivets.  The idea with the weathering liquid is to show where the water would run and create a rust streak.   I'm really happy with the finish and glad the forgemas event came along to get this model finally finished!

Anyway on to the pictures:



As always comments and constructive criticism is most welcome.  This model has added a further 10pts to my painting points total (shown on the right hand side of the blog)

I have lots of projects up and running so will be looking at a high number of posts from me in the coming weeks.

Thats all Folks

Doc out

  3. The disaster with the water effects really knocked my enthusiasm for a while, but I've rebuilt the base now and I'm in the process of repainting it. So shouldn't be too long now.
