40k Imperial Guard Elysian Army ‘The Fighting 95th Talevaran Airborne’
1st Wave
Front view of chimera. I have used Mig Ammo products for the entirety of this project for the vehicles.
The base colour is olive green for the whole chassis, Matt black for camo stripes, with a German yellow for the outside. I applied this with a H&S Infinity airbrush. This was followed by a filter of 3 tone camouflage. This ties the 3 colours together. All the add on items were then painted with base colours fitting their type. These were then washed with AP strong tone and highlighted with base colours to emphasise the shadows.
All the decals were then applied by using Micro Sol decal products to soften and fix. Once dry a gloss varnish was applied over the whole area the decal was applied. This is done to level the area out again.
All this work was sealed with satin varnish to protect the work done to this point.
The 1st part of weathering was to do all the rain effects and rust, I did this using Mig Ammo weathering effects.
The 2nd part was to apply the dust effects, again using Mig Ammo dust products.
The 3rd part was to apply the mud effects, again using Mig Ammo mud products.
This was all sealed with a flat Matt varnish. The new mud splashes where hit with gloss varnish to create that wet look.
I can’t recall who I purchased the wheel conversion front. The tyres are painted with Mig Ammo tyre colour.
I love it. The more realistic, lived in feel really works with guard.
Thx.
