Warhammer: Old School Nouveau style
« on: 04 November 2018, 09:16:46 PM »
Painted up the Sepulchral Guard from Warhammer Underworlds a while ago, thought I'd post them here. Received a Commended Entry at Golden Demon Europe 2018 for which I'm quite proud.

Gorgeous! The cold monochrome is off-set perfectly by that lovely dark rust.

I second this one, also curious about that disheveled horse!

Well done!

Oh wow! This has turned out really well, really liking the high-contrast colour composition you've got going on!

Appreciate the comments!

The horseman is a conversion combining the upper body of the Sepulchral Warden and the horse from the Nurgle Harbinger of Decay. Some resculpting of the cape and repositioning of the arm was necessary. The horseman's head is from the Warhammer Skeleton Warriors box.

Commended entry only? I'd rate this band higher. Love it, strong colours, well painted, nothing wrong with these guys.

Very nice indeed. As others have mentioned, the rust is very effective, it does actually look like it's a texture in some of the shots. What's your process, if you don't mind me asking?
