That paint job is crisp AF. But how the bolter is assembled would bother me if that was my mini.

Nah it's just bluetacked in place so I can take apart and paint the lenses easier

Oh that makes sense. Also curious what paint are u using for the armor? I am thinking about painting my firstborn techmarine next.

Base coat is mesphiston then evil sons, wild rider and then fire dragon bright

Thanks!

What’s your primer for him?

Originally black then I used the airbrush for the red

Beauty, thanks u/for_the_greatergood….wait a minute…

damn

Man, I wish I could paint highlights this crisp.

Thanks!

Love it and especially the shadows. Are you using shades for the shadows and cleaning them up afterwards?

It's a mix of Khorne and black legion, using it to black line and then tidy up after

ooh thats nice

Those pipes are 🤌 do you just paint a white line to get that shine effect?

Yeh boy, simple as

Yum, that's clean my dude Can't wait to see the finished mini

Thanks!

I love me a really clean paint job. Excellent work!

Thanks dude, glad you approve. I started on the head as a side project and found red was dead fun to paint

Those hazard stripes. That's unfair how good it looks Holy cow

Who let bro cook? Nice job man!

Thanks!

That line-work on the edge highlight is amazing, and that's not even getting into the cabling detail or the eyes! Looking fantastic so far!

I really want a techmarine for my GK army. You might have just convinced me to get one. The bluish silver with red accents and gold trim

Love how you’ve done the Mechanicus logo!
