Title: Ork56's Painted Delgon Post by: ork56 on November 07, 2011, 10:25:47 pm best get posting then....
here are some poorly painted and phoographed Delgon Striders. (http://i996.photobucket.com/albums/af83/ork56/Twilight%20pics/IMGP2601.jpg) (http://i996.photobucket.com/albums/af83/ork56/Twilight%20pics/IMGP2602.jpg) my lighting is dreadful.. :-[ They are a metallic blue armour with a smoke wash. the globes were done with silver and then I tried to give an impression of fuel in them by painting a blueish coloured liquid in them Title: Re: Ork56's Painted Delgon Post by: Carcharoth on November 07, 2011, 11:15:39 pm Yup, that's just the sort of thing that deserves a point :)
I split this off and posted it as its own thread though! Title: Re: Ork56's Painted Delgon Post by: Megatron0 on November 08, 2011, 12:58:38 am i really really like these guys! and the more i see delgon the more i want in.

Title: Re: Ork56's Painted Delgon Post by: maccioniath on November 13, 2011, 12:41:33 pm Vallejo makes a blue just like that in their Model Color range. Gunmetal Blue, it's called. I know because I just spilled some all down my pants.... ::)
Title: Re: Ork56's Painted Delgon Post by: Brandlin on November 13, 2011, 05:52:44 pm Foundry do metallic colours too.
I like the idea of the blue metal, but I thnk you needs to use it more sparingly. Title: Re: Ork56's Painted Delgon Post by: ork56 on November 13, 2011, 07:11:41 pm iirc its a Tamiya colour, with a Tamiya smoke wash.
just checked its Tamiya X13 Metallic Blue, I do also still have some GW Polished Blue which has settled a lot over the years and is hard to get a decent metallic mix |
