Say what?! Another post in the same week? I know. Crazy, right? I've taken a bit of a break from my orks and started working on some Blood Angels. My goal was to paint the smoothest red possible. I made the horrible mistake of priming this model--and a squad of 10 assault marines I'm almost finished with--in brown. Painting red over that was a ginormous pain. What you're looking at is about 10-15 really thin coats of red to make sure it went on as smoothly as possible. There are definitely mistakes here and there, but I really like how the wings came out. I ended up painting them grey, and then white. After that, I made my own wash out of turquoise paint, and then did a final highlight with white. It's simple, but a nice variation from the grey and white wings you see on Blood Angels more often than not. I used some Citadel texture paint to create a snowy base.
