Chaos Preacher - Alterations and Undercoating.

*Heres the first of hopefully two posts today regarding what i'm currently upto and my new to-do list.


Chaos Preacher:

I made a few changes to my Chaos Preacher conversion last night, mostly because I wasn't happy with the figures right arm and bolt pistol.

I've swapped the bolt pistol arm for one with a plasma pistol from the CSM Upgrade sprue and added a shoulder guard from the Black Templars sprue with the Crux terminatus sysmbol shaved off.

Weirdly each photo makes the pose look odd, Once I get a better setup for photos hopefully all this should change.

Here's a pic after a quick GW CB Undercoat:

(Another really poor shot from my camera phone)

It's been a while since I last used Black Primer so the results should be interesting. Recently my painting has been shades, washes and glazes over a white undercoat as can be seen on my Nurgle Herald a while back.

Looking at the Preacher as a test model of sorts for my colour scheme I've realised that I needed to go back to the shading and shadows that only a black primer can provide. This is especially true for the metal and the rusty armour effect that I want.

I'l see what I can get done tonight painting wise, although I still need to finish green stuffing my Mutant Leader.

Plaguebearer Test Miniature

Here's a quick shot of the original test model for my Nurgle demon force.

I really need to sit down and get this unit finished, at the moment I have four other demons painted along with a converted Herald of Nurgle.

Also on the work bench are some unit fillers to bring the unit up to fifteen strong, their just the Nurglings off the Plaguebearers sprue on some large bases along with some gravestones and skulls.

The paint scheme for these demons is really simple, just washes and dry-brushing over a Rakarth Flesh base coat. If I ever get chance i'l post up a tutorial.

  

I also need a better camera other than my samsung phone.
