Lamenters Gravis Captain - Part III (Showcase)

 

Given their history, capable armour for a Lamenter is a must.

Turns out there wasn't much left to do on the Gravis Captain. A decal, some of my personal approach to power fields on a sword, some metallics after the varnish spray, and that's about it.

I could have done more with the base, but somehow had the impression it would run the risk of looking cluttered if I did. The model is relatively bulky and takes up enough points of interest on its own.

There are a couple of places where the varnish spray didn't set quite right, thanks to a few light drops of rain while leaving it to dry, but thankfully there was no frosting.

Anything I might change in future would be to add some edging in places to break up the yellow a bit. There is simply too much of it. Maybe deeper shading would help, e.g airbrush with Seraphim Sepia.

I do like how the left pauldron turned out though.

Only a Son of Sanguinius can keep a cape clean on the battlefield.

-- silly painter.
