Here's my dozerblade creation, still WIP, need to smooth off the GS.

Used two blades and one hydraulics setup.

That looks great, nice job mate. :)

Am I the only one who doesn't have a Baneblade?!

most probably Hive, apart from me! nice blade!

And me :)

Bought two Blades but neither are Bane Blades :rolleyes:

Heresy!

One other thing: if it's to be winter camo, is a black or white undercoat better?

i'd go black, because you need the white wash effect over it

Well its how bright you want it I almost always use black and then work may way to white. Takes longer but you get the ... Duller colors effect. I find when using the white spray i get the NEON BRIGHT MUST DIE LIGHTING effects.

I agree. Start black then block brush a light grey then finish with dry brushed white. That way, you get good definition lines and highlighted details.

what sort of winter camo?

if it is whitewash, then best way is prime black as Digits said, then paint a mech colour (grey, green, brown, yellow, red - all primer coats) then mask off sections, spray white then weather the hell out of it. Twill give you this....





if its other winter camo, look up the guy who has a valhallan thread (damn his eyes, cant remeber is name!) cos his BB was trick

SC

I got 4, too bad im too lazy to assemble them.

no

i am without a baneblade. sadly. even tho more plastic BBs exist than there really are in the background. i dont have one.

OT- nice to see another baneblade, i look forward to seeing it finished in all its painted glory.

Really awesome. :)

SC, that's a fantastic bit of weathering. :)

BTW, I have no baneblade. But probably because until I get the money for a CSM army I'll only be playing fantasy ... ;)

Nope, I don't have a traitor Baneblade either. Yet. :ph43r:

I'll assume those are some kind of Guard dozers? I've never had any guard so wouldn't know :P Looks great! Now paint it!!

PS, I have 1...

Well I only actually own black primer, so that means I can actually get started...

By masking, do you mean tape? or that paint stuff? If it's tape, where do you put it?

Not tape, you can use masking fluid, but the best masking fluid is... marmite, apply it to the edges, basically look at where the base tone comes through the white and apply it there, anywhere where wind/snow/rain can take off the whitewash etc.
spray it white, then wash with warm soapy water, leave to dry and then weather it back to hell ¬¬

SC

I... see. Marmite. Well, you either love it or you hate it...

Or you spread it on tanks ^^

SC

yes. :ph43r:

Tried to buy spraypaint today, was refused because i was under 18... :blink:

That's cos the're worried you're gonna spray iy up your nose. Randomly you can buy deodorant however.

Actually I'm pretty sure it's about vandalism...


*Imagines putting the Imperial Eagle up around town*

Cos Banksy's under 18 :P

lucky they let u
"yay mommy can we go deoderant shopping !"
wierd tho ive never been denied spray paint and im 13
u must look like a druggy jk jk
fjk

Ok, it's all sprayed black now.

(To be honest this should really be a Project Log, name: Winter Baneblade. Mods?)

:lol: Makes me want to become a crimminal

Here's a look of two possible colour schemes befre the winter camo effect:







Which is better? Or a different one again?

I'd say if you were doing a white wash the darker grey would be better.
One thing I've been trying with my Warmachine Cygnar is to block in the base colours (Fenris Grey and Space Wolves Grey) then water down Skull White till it has the consistancy of a watery ink. Then coat this on the model, multiple coats will be needed.
Then mix up a reddy/brown wash in the same way as the white wash, and coat everything... This adds a degree of shading and colour to the whitewash while weathering it to a degree.
Then go back and do a few more coats of white wash over the top. It's time consuming but it looks good.


If however you were going to go for a more camo stripe pattern I'd say the white and put grey, blue or green stripes over the top.

Would a dark grey and green scheme work?
