The Horus Hersey - The Primarchs
Sanguinius
Managed to get a bit more work done on Horus last night – he now has arms!
I shall get some pics up, and hopefully get him finished this weekend.
So naturally, my mind has turned to whose up next?
The answer being Sanguinius himself, I also have Fulgrim on the stocks but I haven’t even prepped his miniature yet.
So, as I normally do I started looking about to see if I could get any good painting guides, or see what sort of videos are out there for Sangy.
I typed my search into the world wide web, and the void spat back at me “not a lot”.
It’s almost like people haven’t really bothered with this mini, maybe due to the hefty price tag.
However what inspiration I have managed to glean has led me to pull together the rough painting guide for what I am going to work towards – some of it is still incomplete however – no idea what to do with his pelt.
So any advice on that greatly appreciated!
This is what I have so far….
Face
Bugman’s glow – (shade) Reikland Flesh – Eldar Flesh
Hair
Uriel Yellow – (shade) Cassadora Yellow – Uriel Yellow
Armour
Retributor Armour – (shade) 50/50 Mix Agrax Earthshade / Reikland Flesh Shade – ^Dry^ Auric Armor Gold – ^Dry^ Liberator Gold – (shade) mix Reikland Flesh Shade / Lahmian Medium – ^Dry^ Necron Compound
Wings
Celestra Grey – (shade) Drakenhof Nightshade / Lahmian Medium – Ulthuan Grey – White Scar
**UPDATE**
Work is progressing well, still uncertain which weapon to give him, but in keeping with the original piece of artwork that seems to have inspired the pose, I think I am going sword.
Then I just have to work on the scenic base & ruinstorm Daemon that comes with it!
***UPDATE 2***
Decided upon the sword – pictures to follow tonight / tomorrow (23rd/11).
Now just have to move onto the scenic base!
