Melta for the melta god! (oh, blood too)

My wedding is over and everyone has recovered, thanks to all those who wished us well!

I was able to get a painting day in with some friends and here are the fruits of that labor:

Pointing meltagunner:


Running meltagunner:


Meltagunner stepping up. I just realized he needs some touch up: strap, eyes and khorne symbol coming up!


Aiming plasmagunner.



Here's my experiments with Tamiya Clear-Red X-27. I found a great blood tutorial on the Bolter and Chainsword. It's quite simple really, there's actually only two steps so I can't recommend it highly enough.

Blood spattered Pacter. One of the great things about the Tamiya Red is that it's glossy, so it stands out even on top of red and black.


Bloody Axe.


Bloody knuckles.


To get the gore effect, just mix a tiny bit of black paint with the tamiya red.


Blood at the front, rust at the back.
