UMS "Agram" : Danijel’s paintjob on his Chaos Space Marine Lord

Danijel’s paintjob on his Chaos Space Marine Lord – Part 2

Goran Krunić, 30th March 2022

We continued to add shadows to the recesses (wash - darker, less pigmented and rarer color that capillary enters the recesses and thus creates shadows and contributes to the contrast that further evokes details).

He first set out to shade the upper fur of the mantle with Citadel’s Agrax Earthshade.

Then, with the help of Citadel's Nuln Oil, he set out to shade silver-metal parts, such as rifle barrels, chains, and chain armor below the waist.

Like many beginners in painting miniatures before him, he noticed how many washes, ie shadows, evoke details and how much depth they add to models.

The model’s face set out to overshadow Reikland with Fleshshade.

It is important to mention here that I repeatedly informed him at every step of shading and advised him to prevent washings from accumulating in large quantities on certain surfaces as soon as possible, as this leaves stains whose removal and correction requires extra effort and time.

One thing he noticed very well is that the glove of his right hand looks quite boring only in black, so with Scalecolor Heavy Metal he started to define it, and later shade it with Nuln Oil as well.

Then, with Citadel's Seraphim Sepia, he shaded all the bronze parts (armor trim and decorations, pipes and breathing apparatus on his chest).

Also, as a preparatory work, in these areas, he tried to fix some of the shortcomings from the previous workshop. For this step, he still has to work on noticing mistakes and details, but for a start, it is more than enough.

Also, the top knot went to shade Agrax Earthshade.

Then the red part of the mantle was shaded from the Carroburg Crimson.

Another detail that went to fix was the belt next to the chain mail under the waist, he painted it in Brown Leather by Scalecolor, the rivets on it in Heavy Metal, and then shaded it with Agrax Earthshade (leather part) and Nuln Oil (rivets).

Finally, he shaded the skulls on the front of the armor with Agrax Earthshade.

Below are photos of the shaded model from 4 angles:

General rules for the reader when using ink or washes when painting armies:

Do not allow the liquid accumulated in large quantities to dry on a small part of the shaded area, as stains will form that need to be corrected.
Black wash use for silver metal
Reddish and brown wash use for bronze and gold metal
Pastel colors (blue, purple, red, green, etc.) are best shaded with a darker shade of the base color.

	I will use this article to describe the process of drawing a Roman shield for 54mm miniatures. I won’t be going into the process of painting the basic colours of the shield, just concentrating rather on the freehand itself.

	  

	I found the design that I liked on the internet. I planned to recreate that design with minor changes. The first step was to draw the basic shape with a graphite pen.

	  

	Then, using a darkest shade follow the lines drawn by pen to make the basic shapes. Once, done, fill those shapes with the same paint.

	  

	Check your reference and correct if need be.

	  

	Afterwards, using the ligher shade begin drawing smaller shapes within the darker areas to get the contours of your design.

	  

	Start by drawing the simplest shapes so your hand picks up the motions subconsciously finish with the more complex (wings). Watch out that your shapes (wings for instance) have the same number of elements (feathers).

	  

	Next layer was the first highlight. Similar to the previous step, start drawing the simplest shapes.

	  

	When you finish with this step, check if you are happy with the depth of your freehand. I wasn’t so I continued with the work.

	  

	Using a wash, I added further shadows simulating and accentuating the curvature of the shield.

	  

	In the end, I added the final highlights.

	U ovom ću članku ukratko opisati proces kojim sam iscrtao rimski štit u 54mm mjerilu. Ovdje neću objašnjavati bojanje same crvene površine štita, već samo kako sam izradio freehand.

	  

	Na internetu sam pronašao dizajn koji mi se svidio i kojeg ću uz manje modifikacije pokušati replicirati. Prvi korak je bio iscrtavanje osnovnih oblika običnom olovkom.

	  

	Zatim, najtamnijom bojom prateći linije iscrtane olovkom nacrtajte osnovne oblike te potom popunite bojom oblike.

	  

	Pogledajte vaš dizajn i prema potrebi korigirajte oblik.

	  

	Potom, svjetlijom nijansom krenite iscrtavati manje oblike unutar tamnijih ploha kako biste dodali obrise vašeg dizajna.

	  

	Krenite sa jednostavnijim oblicima i kad vam iscrtavanje “uđe” u ruku, završite sa složenijim (krila). Pri tome, pazite da imate jednak broj elemenata (npr. Pera) po svakom obliku (krilu).

	  

	Sljedeći sloj je prvi highlight. Slično kao i u prethodnom koraku, krenite sa iscrtavanjem sa jednostavnijim oblicima.

	  

	Kad završite, provjerite da li ste zadovoljni sa “dubinom” vašeg freehanda. Ja nisam bio sasvim pa sam nastavio sa radom.

	  

	Koristeći wash, dodao sam dodatne sjene – simulirajući i naglašavajući zakrivljenost površine štita.

	  

	I na kraju sam dodao završne highlighte.

	In this text I will describe the process of pinning a bust to a wooden plinth

	

	You will need: sanding paper, pin, pen, ruler, pin vice (or electric drill), clippers and superglue.

	

	Sand the bottom of the bust to get an even surface

	

	Mark the two spots for pinning on the bottom of the bust. (Two pins make it easier to center the bust on the plinth)

	

	Drill the two holes in the bust (use a pin vice or an electric drill)

	

	Place the pins and glue them with superglue.

	

	Repeat the process on the plinth - first marking then drilling the two holes for the pins.

	

	Before placing the bust, dry fit the pins.

	

	Glue the bust.

	U ovom ću članku opisati kako pričvrstiti bistu na drveno postolje.

	

	Za to će vam biti potrebno: šmirgl papir, spajalica, olovka, metar, buštilica, kliješta i superljepilo. 

	

	Pošmirglajte donju površinu biste.

	

	Označite dva mjesta za postavljanje zatika (pina). Spajanje preko dva zatika olakšava centriranje biste na bazu.

	

	Bušilicom izbušite dvije rupe.

	

	Postavite zatike i zalijepite ih.

	

	Ponovite proces i na drvenoj bazi, prvo označite mjesta, zatim ih izbušite.

	

	Prije postavljanja biste na bazu, provjerite da sve odgovara.

	

	Zalijepite bistu na drveno postolje.

	We continue preparations for our traditional Agram Arena Summer - TURM2024 with demo games of Forbidden Psalm, the game that will be played in July at the Arena. In this game, our Ana, the organizer of TURM, sets up a game for Seb and Domagoj, and this time she lets them pick their own crews!

	

	Another game at Ana's, but this time Seb and I didn't play with premade warbands... we chose minis and did the whole warband creation process! The scenario we played was setting up mortsafes and looting tombs. I was extremely lucky with my magician and found 3 treasures in the first tomb, one of which was a relic.

	

	Seb had a little less luck with the treasure, which got him into trouble with the skeletons. As I started the game with a few lucky rolls, I decided to invest in positive karma and help him with the mobs. At the end of the third move, Corpse Collector appeared, a large monster that we decided to defeat with joint forces.

	

	To slow his progress, I summoned a Skeletal Warrior, an affiliated gang member, behind his back. Karma paid off because my gang member, Vid, defeated the Collector with a lucky mace hit and earned another relic!

	

	

	

	

	

	

	I think we've mastered the rules and independent play quite well, and I'm looking forward to Turm!

	Nastavljamo sa pripremama za našu tradicionalnu Agram Arenu Summer – TURM2024 demo partijama Forbidden Psalma, igre koja će se igrati u srpnju na Areni. U ovoj partiji, naša Ana, organizatorica TURMa, organizira partiju za Seba i Domagoja, ali ih prepušta same sebima i pri izboru svojih vojski!

	

	Jos jedan game kod Ane, ali ovaj put Seb i ja nismo igrali s premade warbandama… odabrali smo minije i odradili cijeli warband creation proces! Scenario koji smo igrali je postavljanje mortsafeova i pljackanje grobnica. Imao sam izuzetne srece sa svojim madjionicarem i u prvoj grobnici nasao 3 blaga, od kojih je jedno bila relikvija.

	

	Seb je imao nesto manje srece sa blagom, sto ga je dovelo u nevolju s kosturima. Kako sam igru krenuo s nekoliko sretnih rollova, odlucio sam se investirati u pozitivnu karmu i pomoci mu oko mobova. Na kraju treceg poteza pojavio se Corpse Collector, veliko cudoviste koje smo odlucili savladati zajednickim snagama.

	

	Kako bi usporio njegov napredak, iza ledja sam mu prizvao Skeletalnog ratnika, pridruzenog clana bande. Karma se isplatila jer je clan moje bande, Vid, sretnim pogotkom buzdovana savladao Collectora i zaradio jos jednu relikviju! 

	

	

	

	

	

	

	Mislim da smo poprilicno dobro savladali pravila i samostalnu igru, i veselim se Turmu!

	Ulaz na predavanja je besplatan i otvoren za sve te prijave nisu potrebne.

	

	

	Izrada makete je rezervirana za članove Agram Lego Sekcije. Ukoliko se želite uključiti u sljedeće projekte, javite se za više informacija na ums.agram@gmail.com .

	

	Za kraj, ekipa je provela struju, odn. rasvjetu kroz cijelu maketu. 

	

	A rezultat je bio magičan!
