Bronze applied and dry brushed, then washed a few times with black to dull it back down

Very, very nice, but an awful lot of money to spend for just a couple scenarios.

but an awful lot of money to spend for just a couple scenarios.

Only if you think that way, other people don't.

I agree it is an awful lot of money, but I don’t game too often so it’s always going to be a display more than anything else, I have to say it’s a superb model to put together, mierce definitely make their resin kits s hell of a lot better than the forge world kits I’ve bought before, oh and thanks guys,


To paint it i basecoated black, then used foundry burnished copper A , a little drybrush with the B shade and then a little C added to it, then nuln oil washed 3  times making sure it didn’t pool darkened it down enough, then I used nihilakh oxide, thinned a little in small areas and sponged it off !
Hope that helps!


Cheers

Andy

That is very nice indeed, a proper Talos. Does he have the plug at his heel? If not, how do you defeat him?
