Genestealer Brood Complete.

So with a bit of painting last night and half an hour this evening I have managed to finish the second part of my first Genestealer brood.

I think they look good all together even if they lack detail on an individual basis. Because the Genestealers lack any real carapace I was worried there would be too many flesh tones but there seems to be plenty of other details on them to break this up. They also fit in nicely with the rest of the army so far, so I'm a happy with them.

Tyranid Warrior Brood Completed.

Following yesterday's post I have now finished my first Tyranid Warrior Brood. They are nice sized models and I enjoyed painting them far more than the termagants. As there are only 3 models in this brood and they are of more importance I could afford to spent a little more time on these whilst following the same painting system I have in place.

Tyranid Warrior Brood Started.

Work on my Tyranid Warrior Brood has begun, I have opted for a "shooty" unit and went for 2 Deathspitters and 1 Barbed Strangler as these are all template weapons and should make up for the low BS the warriors have due to rolling scatter dice to hit.

So far I have finished 1 warrior from the brood and I now feel comfortable with the colour scheme. I have a good system in place which should speed up completion time for each brood, I should now be able to get quite a fews models painted up quite quickly whilst maintaining a good tabletop quality appearance.

These are the other two models from the brood. To get to this stage I did the following:

1. Undercoat Skull White
2. Basecoat Tallarn Flesh
3. Drybrush Bleached Bone
4. Heavy wash with Ogryn Flesh

Once the wash has completely dried (about 2 hrs):

1. Drybrush Bleached Bone
2. Drybrush 50:50 Bleached Bone and Skull White
   

Completed models so far. All completed models recieve a coat or two of games Workshop Purity Seal Satin Varnish to protect them.
