Blog Chicken Lips Warhammer Armies

Thanks! He needs to stand out a bit as General. Kinda difficult to do when your main army colors are Brown, Grey and Black.

 

I can attest to that. I have one and I love it!

Nice work on the Skaven!

 

Love the warpstone, you really nailed that part especially!

 

Thanks! I was going for a Warlock-Augmented Weapon look!

 

Queen Khalida looks fantastic @Chicken Lips ! I really like the way you did the green, so striking!

 

Thanks! Honestly, she was a trial run. I have two of those models, and I painted this one up for a friend. I wanted to see if I liked it. I'm still thinking that I'll go with more of a teal green - blue color with mine.

 

Excellent work on her majesty

 

Thanks!

 

You are very welcome. Hopefully I'll have my own someday

 

I finished up my second Ogre Hunter over the weekend. I got a lot of other things done as well.

Like my wife and I actually getting away from the quads for a date night to see the Avengers movie!!!



Anyways, Ogre Hunter:

 

Good looking couple, good looking ogre!

 

Amazing work The wooden parts of the weapons and the snow on the base are my favorite bits.

 

+1

I am amazed how much the basing looks like real snow.

 

Thats because it actually is!

 

Thanks, guys!

The snow is really easy as is the blue skin tone.

The snow is just the snow basing material from Gale Force 9 with a little Elmer's Glue mixed in with it. Mix it to a rough grit texture and then apply to the base, keeping in mind how it would fall on the surface. (Don't get it too fluid by applying too much glue because it will flow into the cracks and crevices, at which point, you might as well have just painted it white.)

The Blue skin is simply a base coat of "The Fang" (all GW paints), a thin wash of "Drakenhof Nightshade", and then a drybrush of "Fenrisian Grey". Done. Not really much different from a normal flesh tone.

 

Here's a Gorger I finished as well. Hopefully, this guy'll be able to wreck some good damage in some backfields!

 

And here's my finished unit of Ogre Maneaters! (The 3 I just finished and the 3 I had previously finished.)
