Tyranid Project Update: 10/20




Getting some work done on the Tyranids, finally. I've been painting this Carnifex tonight, in hopes that by tomorrow I might have him completed. Work has picked up for me a lot at the moment (the holidays are hard on portrait photographers) but I hope to start getting some games in when my work schedule stabilizes.

Same method of operation for this as my Hormagaunts. I start by primering black, then highlight the carapace with Scab Red, and following that with Bleached Bone for the majority of the fleshy bits and exoskeleton. It is worth noting that I used a 50/50 mix of Blood Red and Sunburst Yellow for the adrenal gland bunch on its dorsal carapace, followed by a Sunburst Yellow drybrush. After the Flesh Wash it will really look interesting. I still have another layer to go on the bleached bone, but this is where I am stopping for tonight. Tomorrow, I plan to finish the highlighting with a bit of Blood Red, finish the Bleached Bone, and finally douse the model in an Ogryn Flesh wash, which really adds to the macabre grimdark feel I want for my army.

I hope I am not too tuckered out from work tomorrow, I wanna see this thing done!

Until next time,
