Horus Heresy - World Eaters Paintblog by Andre77
21st day: End of the tunnel
After the battering i started working on the details.
Shoulderpads trims in gold. Washed with 1/2 softone, 1/2 strong tone + thinner. Then the golden edges and rivets lightly overworked.
On the picture it is hard to be seen, right washed and left overworked.The on the left side of the shouldpads i did the red maw and on the backsides i painted the grenades. I also did the metal parts of the hand weapons and applied a thinned oily black ink on them.
Then i did some decals. I later noticed i need white decals, but the FW World Eaters doesn’t deliver them, and the other ones not so many in quantity. And i didn’t wanted to invest so much in decals. So i searched in my decal box and some ones with storm symbols. I used a decal medium/softener to apply them on the rounded surfaces. Dried (needs half a day) i applied a matt varnish on the decals to fixate them and take the gloss from them:
Then i did the sergeants face. Used a bronzed flesh + kislev flesh mix. Lighted this up with white and applied a sepia wash on this. The teeths are metal, but that is hard to be seen. Eyes and cables to the head and scars for further details. Will apply later a thinned black ink on the metal parts of the head avoiding the flesh 😉
