Wyverns and Leaders
To be honest this switch to monsters is me taking my foot off the pedal, I find painting big things easy and leaders eat up the points count, so mulligan played.
So lets show you what I did of March - built the monster, adding missing details and undercoating.
Starting to apply base colours
Applying basing material and varnish
Please note the varnishing didn't go quite according to plan, if you look carefully at the wings you'll notice a crinkled effect to the wings, paricularly noticeable towards the ends, I'm putting this down to the type of varnish I used and the damp conditions I used it in. I'm not unhappy with the look as it gives the wings more texture, in my opinion.
Finally the leaders
A collection of three lvl1 shamen, three lvl 2 shamen, a lvl 5 warboss and a lvl10 chieftain provides me with a significant points boost without adding a load of armour and weapons - 648 points, enjoy.
The wyvern is great !!! I love this miniature, you did a great job !
ReplyDeleteThe Wyvern is a truly great model and painted really nicely!
ReplyDeleteWell done on the Wyvern, I like the two-tone paint scheme. Did you use a spray varnish or brush it on? I guess the latter, and the fact that the wingtips are most affected suggests to me that it ended up thicker there because it will have run down the wing to the lowest point. Next time try several thin coats with time left between them for drying. It's easy to be impatient with the last stage of the model - I know all too well! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a class model, that wyvern!
