NMMonday #24

The last #NMMonday of this year! And here is not finished yet guardian spear for my "me'h" Custodes.
But what did you painted in non-metallic technique during last week?

NMMonday #21

 NMMonday in the cold summer! While I waiting for my Scalecolor shiny smooth paints (sooo looong) from kickstarter I still paint the custodes with Pacific88

Third training custodian

 Third (and the last) training custodes now finished. And also I finished developing of the golden NMM recipe based on Pacific88 paints. So I will reveal it soon and then will try something different for the new NMM recipes.

Also I will start a small gang of this golden boyz)

NMMonday#17

 #NMMonday is back on the stage!What did you painted in non-metallic technique during last week? More progress on Custodes training piece, great golden future is near.

NMMonday #16

Did you all missed me and #NMMonday? some more golden NMM study on the training Custodes. I am still in the process of establishing new color recipe for gold NMM. This one a bit looks too yellow and I'll try to add more orange and red into this scheme.

Custodes test mini

 This is training Custudes piece I started to get a practice in new for my style of the golden NMM just before start painting of Trajann Valoris. So this mini was half painted for several weeks before I got enough time to finish the model.
I was very enjoyed by the process of painting Custodes so I plan to paint some of them in the next year. Characters and a dreadnought perhaps.
I hope you like the result as much I like the process.

More custodes wip

more and more golden NMM wips

Trajann Valoris of the Adeptus Custodes

The current Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, all in red and gold. I decided to do this model in the modern style of NMM. To do this, I looked at many works of Michal Pisarski (aka Lan) and his followers as refs. For the basis of the color scheme, I took the one that was used by Lan to paint Ixion Hale, but gradually I replaced all the paints with others and added orange in the shadows.

The fact is that for my taste absolutely matte paints are not very well suited for NMM, because IMHO the lack of gloss a bit spoils the feeling of NMM, if we consider the model live (not in the glass cabinet).

Therefore, I used the colors of Pacific88 for the gold NMM, and I made rags based on Andrea and Scalecolor paints, since in this case the matt is a plus.

Separately, I want to note that I really liked the process of painting the lion head, since it is fairly well sculpted and also has a smooth texture. So it was a pleasure to paint it.

In general, I really liked to paint Custodes, so that next year I plan to do several similar works with other heroes and/or dreadnoughts especially if there will be another Golden Demon Europe
