I guess you look back at all the ideas you had or discussed with friends and try to decide which one excited you the most.
In my case, it was starting my skaven army. And so i started building queek headtaker. I didn't like the huge trophy rack on his back so i cut it off. He looks slicker this way....to me at least :)

I present to you my test model of the emperor's children. This is in preparation for a 30K build that we're planning on doing early next year.
I wanted to try and get the purple/pink color right for the build so please tell me how it looks.

Great looking stuff dude! For the Emperor's Children test model, what colors are you using for the purple base and highlight?
ReplyDeletewarlock & liche purple, isn't it?
ReplyDeletegood luck on your Emperor's Children project..I've a big surprise prepared for next year's Golden Kris ;)
you're starting to be like me dude, having all sorts of project on the table at the same time..hahaha..such is the life of a miniature wargaming hobbyist..
Thanks guys.
ReplyDeleteWhat do u think of the purple color?
Its equal part hexed lichen and warlord purple, vj game color. Gotta love those bottles when it comes to mixing paints and being able to reproduce the same later on :)
Iqbal- those are the equivalent of the colors u mentioned ;)
Jeff- that was the base color. I highlighted using straight warlord purple.
ReplyDeletenice take on the EC ... 2012 looking like one interesting pre-heresy year ... someone should paint up more orks!
ReplyDeleteThat's cool. I've added a small amount of Bonewhite into the purple in the past with good results. Yours looks good dude!
