Title: Dark Heresy miniatures.
Post by: galatea77 on August 31, 2015, 08:24:40 PM
Some miniatures I have painted for an ongoing Dark Heresy 1st Ed campaign.
Still practising with taking pictures !!!
Thought I'd post cause the forum looks fun!

Attached are -

1. Galatea de Vries, Adeptus Arbites intelligencer.
2. Ramsfold Chottle, Ratling quartermaster.
3. Zarkov, Imperial Psyker now deceased, got sucked into the warp unfortunately.

Dark Heresy is one of the few RPGs I've actually had the pleasure of running more than one game of. I liked it a lot, but sadly couldn't keep the players together due to scheduling.

Great miniature work!

That is a great first post.
Loads of character in those figures.

A shame about Zarkov, though, as he is a great figure.
He must have a twin brother somewhere.....

Yeah base white and then ink up through black, brown, sepia, orange and finally yellow, drybrushing and detailing light grey and white along the way.

Yep it's a metal Hasslefree mini...

Thanks guys !  Not had a chance to play 2nd ed. 1st Ed seems fine to me, no one in the group has mentioned on a move to 2nd. Read some mixed reviews on 2nd ed. We're 20 sessions into the campaign so getting plenty of mileage out of 1st !

More minis !! Trix is the one of the player characters, mini bought by the player, team sniper, took out an Eldar Vyper jet bike once.
Turned out a bit darker than I wanted maybe but looks suitably moody, don't mess with Trix...

Love the face on the swordswoman, maybe some techno doodad or detail on the belt or sword hilt would place her in the sci fi universe. Really though, she's great as she is.

I lack the words to do this thread and it's collection of superb minis justice! Beautifully painted and a fantastic diversity of models. Just about sums up what 40K/Dark Heresy/the inquisition is all about - fantastic work! As a bit of an Inquisitionfile this is just the sort of stuff I love to see.

Brilliant.
Title: Re: Dark Heresy miniatures.
Post by: galatea77 on March 23, 2016, 11:40:18 PM
Many thanks for your comments Legionnaire Bert ! Most encouraging.

The attraction of 40k is it's open template I think, Rogue Trader era for me especially, where diverse elements can be explored whilst still being used part of a whole. Plus I can then use the minis in other games too without them looking too out of place.
Title: Re: Dark Heresy miniatures.
Post by: blacksoilbill on March 24, 2016, 12:37:09 AM
I do really like the muted palette on these. Also agree with you about the diversity of the 40k world: heaps to explore as you build characters and teams.

Nice. There's some really neat stuff in this thread.

I really like the inquisitor and retinue, and the very 'gritty' look of your style.

There's quite a few minis in here that I've been looking at buying for a long time: Always nice to see them painted.

Post by: galatea77 on June 23, 2016, 10:24:57 PM
I undercoat white and then do a watered down black ink wash to better reveal hidden mould lines. I still fail.

Drybrushing reveals mould lines other techniques can't reach !!

Loving all these paint jobs. The gloss varnish is very different but I like the effect a great deal. The basing is also quite distinctive, kudos to you for that!

I like the effects you've achieved on the Cawdor gun casings in particular - just out of interest can you briefly describe what was done?

Thank you for sharing!

Ragsta

Cheers Ragsta ! - The guns are layers of light grey and white dry brush over successive layers of ink/wash and paint, I started with GW's agrax earthshade and then added drakenhof nightshade and fuegan orange.
The dark greeny blue you can see though is Vallejo model color 898 Dark Sea Blue which contrasts with the orange for the overall effect.
While going through these steps it can look a right mess at times but the drybrushing pulls it all together.

AWu - the head is from a plastic empire kit, the hair and beard already on it.  :)

The hair and beard started off white.
Then I dab some dark red and orange for the roots of the hair.
Next ink or wash the hair dark brown/sepia.
Then drybrush light grey.
Then ink with Valejo Game Ink Amarillo Yellow.
Then drybrush white.

The yellow ink is so much easier than using yellow paint.

I'm with AWu, hair is well done - as is the colour matching on the figure (not to mention the conversion).

Agree - lovely story telling. Where are all the pieces of the conversion from?

The Inquisitor is all GW, Astra Militarum body, Neophyte legs. The other parts I'm not sure, got them in bits off ebay, marine arm and plasma pistol and marine lightning claw I assume, the cloak and head are from an Empire kit I think but no idea which one.

Cadians are ugly by themselves but can be base for really great conversions. I really like them. :-*

Are those greatswords legs ?

Great execution - I agree, a great reimaging.

Thanks guys.

Yep, Greatsword legs, and heads. Cadian body and arms are Cadian or Neophyte. Trimmed the lasgun barrel on one and gave one a suitably oversized melta gun.
