Well done Adam!

But using non-GW paint? I'm afraid that's heresy :lol:

Since those pics I’ve done a pretty heavy oil dot filter and added some forced contrast with oils. Over that I’m going to do a base layer of Tamiya buff “dust” then use some enamel products to dirty it up.

Have spent the week painting in the details.

Progress pics, oil dot filter done, panel line wash and forced contrast with oils done. Optics painted Warhammer style. Space marine commander painted and installed in his cupola.

Not sure how he gets in and out of the hatch, his power armour pauldrons are so large he can't fit through it :D

Still have some minor detail painting to do, tracks need done and then I need to add dust and mud.

Stunning Adam! :D

As to the pauldron and fit and all... I mean... the Wh40K tanks also never have sufficient storage (or really any :lol: ) for their ammunition,
Wh40k is just awesomely baroque dieselpunk hardware with a vague early 20th century look... based on the rule of cool :lol: .

Looks stunning - I might join this build with a 40k guard tank... or a Gundam Mk II... :lol:


Best regards
