Big Shoota

Grot Gunners and Dakkajet Weathering

Paint. Paint. Paint!

Sadly, only enough for the little grotty gunners 🙂

Finished up the grot big shoota gunner turrets and realized I’ve run out of Evil Sunz Red so the main painting of the bomma will have to wait until I have a chance to get to the hobby shop (hopefully tomorrow).


Not that I don’t have other things I can paint – wait, I do! Three dakkajets I started ages ago are sitting there waiting to be finished. I’ve reached a point where I’m individually detail painting each jet to make them unique. There are two rites of passage for any ork player worth his/her salt when it comes to modeling and painting. Rivets and checks.  I started the checks a while back but finished cleaning them up and did the base weathering tonight.

Cleaned up and ready for weathering.

Black sponged wear areas…

Metallics picked out out on wear edges…

An application of watered down Gryphone Sepia over the checks – the brownish wash looks better over the white than the black og Nuln Oil, which was washed over the rest of the plane.

While waiting for the washes to dry, I started the pilots for each plane – easier since they’ll be painted primarily the same. Pics to come when I’ve got more than three coats of green on them 😉

Later!
