Legio Mortis - Adeptus Titanicus
Laying down the paint.
This is the largest model I’ve ever done, and actually it’s also my first mechanical model. Even when I did play 40K it was Nids. It gives me a great opportunity to do something I’ve always wanted.. but I’ll get to that. First steps are first steps and a model this big really needs some airbrushing. This is a Vallejo Black Primer, Followed by Scale75 Black Metal Alchemy sprayed on a negative angle with Scale75 Thrash Metal Alchemy on the positive. Drenched in GW Nuln Oil and vigorously dry brushed with Scale75 Heavy Metal Alchemy. I haven’t done alot of any of that for awhile now, it was great fun.
Now, the base gave me a bit of trouble. I put crackle paint down and airbrushed a deep red, Vallejo Model Color Black Red. My plan was to dry brush an orange on top but that just wasn’t working. I ended up having to layer on orange pigment (Secret Weapon Rust Orange) but the crackle got buried. (pictured later)
