My first tutorial and Space Hulk WIP

Hi everyone

Firstly here is my first tutorial video for my Grey Knights scheme.



With all the Space Hulk excitement I've dug out my 2009 set and my unfinished Blood Angel army themed around a strikeforce clearing a hulk in order to get them done using techniques and experience I've gained over the years I have been painting.




So far here is a regular thunder hammer terminator I'm testing out my recipes on. The basecoat and shadows were applied by airbrush.



I am having a lot of fun doing the details by glazing up the highlights so I also started a Space Hulk guy completely by hand. Here is where he stands at the end of the second highlight colour (50:50 Mephiston Red and Evil Sunz Scarlet) after many many layers.



And the xenos side of things is getting done as well



What do you all think?

Ultramarines! And a few ebay bits

Hey everyone.

This week's project is some Ultramarines. Doing these for a friend at a local club here in Wales and following a tutorial http://thetwelveolympians.co.uk/painting/tutorials/ultramarines-blue

I have made some changes, preshading with a wash made from black and Vallejo glaze medium and pin washing with nuln oil and lahmian medium 50:50 mix instead of oils. These are very fun to paint.




And the next few ready to face the airbrush


What do you guys think?

And I have some lots on Ebay

A short intro

So who or what is Brush Knights?

The Brush Knights is a commission painting service for wargaming and related miniatures based in Wales in the UK. It is a never ending quest ascending the mountain of plastic, resin and metal to achieve the goal of every battle being fought with beautiful armies arrayed against each other.

From time to time I'll also be painting some figures just for ebay as a way to experiment or just paint something new.

To get a quote on a commission simply email brushknights@gmail.com

The Quest Begins

The quest begins! Let's start things off properly with lots of lovely pictures of some just finished Blood Angels. These will soon be up on ebay so keep an eye out for that update.
