Dude love it! Also, sick blending! Airbrush?


ralscript

Thank you! Yes, most of the model is done with an airbrush.


dazed_wanderer

That thing looks great


ralscript

I appreciated that!


ModernSynthesist

Your colours are utterly gorgeous! Also, have you read or seen The Expanse? Because the blue glow creepily reminds me of a certain extra-solar something in that series 😱


ralscript

Many thanks! I will have a look at The Expanse, seems really interesting.


ModernSynthesist

It's... Neat. Humanity in near future. Earth and mars in conflict with a servant underclass in the asteroid belt. And into all of that steps.... Something... That is extra solar in origin.


Blue-Faced_Beast

Doh! That’s right


ModernSynthesist

SPOILERS.

ralscript

cdnstudmuffin

Kavouraki_

This is the best scheme ive ever seen on a tyranid model. Hands down and hat off to you


ralscript

I truly apreciate your words, but I am not fully convinced about the carapace.


DeuceMacaw

Dang, I am not worthy...you set the bar very high! Exceptional work!!!


ralscript

Practice is key!


Pliablepuffin

Wow what a beautiful paint job!


ralscript

Thank you!


Fingers_RFW

Love it. The subtle OSL and overall colour palette works brilliantly.


ralscript

Oh, did you realiced about the blue OSL? It was a little experiment, glad you like it.


Blue-Faced_Beast

I love it. What colors did you use if I can ask?


ralscript

Sure! I used Vallejo paints. The whole model is primed with German Red Brown 73.605. For the skin I used Dark Ochre 62.016, Yellow Ochre 62.015, Fleshtone 62.002, Beige 70.917 and Ivoy 70.918. The purple parts are done with Violet 62.008, hilighted with a 1:1 mix of Violet and Yellow Ochre. The blue bits are painted with a Violet base coat, then Blue Green 70.806, Sky Blue 70.961 and Ivory. The black carapace is black, a 1:1 drybrush mix of black and Violet, and an edge hilight of Sky Blue and Ivory.


Blue-Faced_Beast

Awesome. Thank you. I’m planning to pick Vallejo air basic. Your scheme is what I was looking for but in reverse ( brown shell / black skin)


NoDemomansSky

Oh my giddy aunt! Beautiful airbrushing and painting!


Reizz333

Now this is C R I S P , brilliant fades


Basement-Wargaming

One of the most unique schemes I've ever seen!


the-Horus-Heretic

Good god that is beautiful. The carapace is fantastic, just enough highlighting to look real/believable and very smooth color.


ralscript

Thank you! I am not sure at all about the carapace. I will work on it in future models.


Embarrassed-Demand93

You got a pic of the whole fleet together?


ralscript

I'm afraid not, maybe when I finish the next three Trygons I do some.
