Most of the details in place, need to add some (30-40) teeth.

Thanks

I found the seam lines really stick out on the FW stuff when you see them painted. I can't see any here, but I assume you found some.?
Good decision to touch up any issues. Now is the right time.

Seems like you got bit by the model monster just like me and in the same way. I can't stop modeling either!

Looking cool man. I can't wait to see what colors you decide. I love seeing this kit done in unique ways.
Good Times.

Thanks my friend!
Yep, there were few seam lines but I took them out during second black coat. Anyway, on this "bio" model some seam lines will look ok

I applied first bright layer for armor painting. Airbrush color Model Master Acrylic - Radome Tan

Thanks

I continued the work with armor painting.
Thanks for Grail's explanations in his thread, I tried to do something similar.
Used sponge and several layers of random painting by diluted acrylic dark brown color and Games-Workshop's brown washes
These are the results:

Next will be wash that will unite, I hope so, these several layers...

THanks

This is looking really cool!

I would even consider not doing a wash at all except to just cover any little touch ups. Looks pretty cool the way it is. I really like how bright/contrast it is and how warm the colors are. The wash will darken it so maybe just a really really diluted wash. ? Or gloss clear it first so the wash just settles in the recesses like a pin wash? Just my opinions. I'm sure you will do something cool.
Anyhow, looking awesome, your paint skills are flying along

Thanks my friend!!!

I already did wash, it made color a little darker but not too much. I will take picture when it will dry.
Here is closeup picture

Thanks for your help!

One more wash layer for unifying layers

Thanks

Wow thats one cool model!

Great colour, cant wait to see how this beast turns out

Beork · May 05, 2011, 03:00:42 AM

Cool, I love the FW nid models.

It's a tad larger than I imagined.

Good start on the painting, the mottled effect really makes fits.
I'm curious what you'll do with the more fleshy parts
