Ghost Bears
Charlie Star
Charlie star is the fast moving recon star.
A pair of Dashers for dropping off elementals, grabbing objectives and backstabbing. The Mercury cant deliver elementals, but is also blisteringly fast and is all backed up with the Viper and Uller to provide fire power, they arnt slouches when they come to speed either.
I chose grey undercoat with a lighter grey over the top, white for random edge highlighting. This gave them a bit more of a worn look, rather than falling back on my usual COVER IT IN RUST tm style.
To get the shattered ice camo i used masking and a brush to lay down some blue and white, edge highlighting with a lighter blue.
To finish it off i put a black oil wash into the panel lines, added the Ghost Bear decal and then glued them to the base. Like the Elementals i added a brushing of rust powder (did i mention i like rust? I have a lot of it). and then done.
I’m pretty pleased with them. I think they have the look of the piece of art i’m working from below and the shattered ice leans more towards camo than something you would see on a space marine for example.
Next up, Beta star.
