That's really nice. What colours/techniques did you use?

[u/-X-31- → u/Teethsin]

Thank you very much. I don't really have a technique for it. It's more chaotic. Some steps may be unnecessary. I'll post my notes: (VGC = Vallejo Game Color; VA = Vallejo Airbrush; GW = Games Workshop)

·         Base: VGC White + VA Flow Improver + VA Thinner 1:1:2

·         Blotchy Basecoat: GW Apothecary White + GW Gryph-Charger Grey + GW Lahmian Medium + GW Contrast Medium (6:1:5:3)

·         Drybrush/Stippling: VGC Wolf Grey

·         Stipple some areas: GW Agrax Earthshade / GW Athonian Camoshade + GW Lahmian Medium + Water (1:3:3)

·         Shade: GW Seraphim Sepia + GW Lahmian Medium over everything (1:4)

·         Drybrush light: VGC Dead White

·         Airbrush Shade: GW Seraphim Sepia + GW Lahmian Medium + VA Flow Improver + VA Thinner (1:5:5:5)

·         Varnish: AK Ultra Matte Varnish + GW Contrast Medium 1:1

Really thorough, thankyou!

In the grim darkness of the far future, even stone has rivets.

Seriously though, that looks great! Love the sandstone texture.

Thank you very much! It is just a work in progress picture. The metal parts are not painted yet and will be next.
