Mindtwists MinionsI painted these primarily with contrast paints. Flesh tearer red for the red parts including the canopies and lenses, Basilicanum Grey for the grey areas and Black Templar for the black areas. I used Vallejo Violet for the purple areas and then applied Nuln oil washes over most areas.
Highlights were kept fairly simple using mechanicum standard and dawnstone for the grey areas, dawnstone and codex white for the black areas and Violet mixed with Vallejo white to highlight.
Reds were done using mephiston red, evil sunz scarlet and a final fine highlight of Trollslayer Orange. I took the canopies and lenses further by using bad moon yellow mixed with a little white and used a fine brush to add fine line from the corners that I had taken the highlights up the furthest to create the impression of glare from the sun on them.
Once completed I used thinned black Templar to glaze some shading and even out the black panels on the models to make them look far shinier and flat.
I am so please with how they turned out.
COILS are done… now do SPRINGS….
sorry, I’ll be over then then… XD
