Cryx Reaper WIP + finished model
« on: November 04, 2010, 09:30:09 AM »
Heya LAFers! :D

I need some help and advice:
I've been rebuilding and repainting my Cryx force for some time and I think I found new color scheme for my army.
Test model (wip) below:



I am just wondering - should I add some glow on the model (orange? blue? green? other tone?) or just drop the idea and make it more "military-like" and less fantasy? :)

Any ideas? :)

Yeah i don't see Cryx doing decalls as everything is unique..Its never numbered like say Khador for instance..

Like the colour as well, but could do with a bit more weathering to make it look aged and menacing.

It will get weathering - it's a wip shot :)
I know Cryx doesn't seem to me as "organised" as other factions yet I am starting Mortenebra force and think well organized army will fit Toruk's top mechanic ;)

Yeah can see that as an idea though maybe he'd just daub numbers on them rather than fine decal work..

So it could work if you maybe damaged them a little or made them look less uniformed??

As I wrote - the model will get some chipped paint and weathering :)
I put early wip shots because I don't wanna screw this one up - as many model before by overdoing rust, weathering and damages... :(

Painted the model a bit last night and orange turned out (surprisingly for me) well.
Pics tonight... 8)
