Grey Knight (Done)

The first Grey Knight is now considered "done". I may go back later and add scrolls, books, or other such attachments, but for now the model is complete.
So awesome, he glows.
There's not much of note to say really. The besagew (at least, I think that's the intended function of the little shield) and wrist-mounted storm-bolter are the main additions, with a little base work to round things off.

The base could have been done better. I tried using some pre-made elements, but they don't sit flush with the rest of the base. So there's this muddied rock or concrete slab with a Guardsman's flask and some shell casings that doesn't really fit. The flask was Stegadon Scale Green (base), Agrax Earthshade (wash), and a bit of Straken Green to highlight some edges. Might make a nice Guardsman uniform basic later.

The besagew has a half white, half red colour scheme. The "white" was just Celestra Grey with Ulthuan Grey over the top. Going to White Scar would have been too much. Larger areas given the same treatment might benefit from edge highlights with White Scar, which is again something to keep in mind for later.

Only one more problem remains: four more of them to assemble and paint still.

-- silly painter.
