Space Hulk Blood Angels Painting Guide (Pt. 3)

    Just a little update on the Blood Angels. The bolters got drilled out, and I did all the text on the purity seals, and also re-did the wax seals themselves. Here`s the shot from the garden. In natural light it becomes very obvious just how dark this scheme is.

Happy painting, and remember DMGWLFP...

Mazda Mods (Stereo)

     One of the many wonders of America is that no matter how far you are from a road, you can always find bits of a car...

After cleaning and adding the black base coats

So I found a sweet hubcap, from some ancient beast of a car, Thunderbird? (I thought it would look awesome on the dash of the Mazdarati.) Anyhow, I also had a really big knife with me so naturally I dug the emblem out of it. It was pretty nasty and dirty, and the gold fleck was badly worn. But, after a round of sonication and scraping it was ready to paint, sadly the acetone fogged the inside surface a bit.

Just the black outline done

It tuns out that it's really hard to paint well on the surface, also, since it's on the inside you have to paint things in an opposite sense as to how you're used to thinking.

Tail is gold, legs are two yellows, claws and head white, copper wings with silver and white on the tips.

The final result isn't really that spectacular, but it's fun none the less. I just need to figure out how to buff it up, I think it's acrylic.

 Happy stereo modding...
