Definitely some serious skill here and a pleasure to show off to you all. As you will notice, the paint job is exquisite. Maybe someday I'll be able to paint as well. It looks like it was a lot of fun to convert and paint up! Enjoy the army everyone! :)
Hello there! Today, I present you with the army painted by Lucion for Implausible Nature and the Black Templars community. Lucion and I value the community we've helped to build, so he felt it was a good way to give back to everyone that has contributed! I agree! He even went as far as to name the characters in the army after several of the Black Templars players in the community! Definitely some serious skill here and a pleasure to show off to you all. As you will notice, the paint job is exquisite. Maybe someday I'll be able to paint as well. It looks like it was a lot of fun to convert and paint up! Enjoy the army everyone! :)

Good lookin army you got there Lucion, I like how you displayed them as a video too, gives the whole army viewing a more in depth feel I guess is how you would put it.

Thanks Trig. That little webcam is really good and gives a different sense than still pictures.

I use non-GW paints, but for the next time you are fiddling around, try out a metallic white. I base coat in black, then with a layer of metallic white, I get a great gunmetal type finish on weapons. I also use it as a thin layer on anything white to give it an extra bit of shine.

Generic stuff from Hobby Lobby. Americana, Anita's metallics, maybe a couple of strays, I was picking for color.

Hi Algesan.

Actually I'm not trying for purple (although I like the effect you got, I might have to think where I could experiment with that), but for a "blacker than black" effect. Little trick from the military: Several layers of Kiwi black polish buffing each as you go, then a final coat of Kiwi blue polish buffed to a high spit shine. They literally looked "blacker than black".
