Viking 2G - 6th Army Comstar
« on: 19 November 2011, 22:19:43 »
A kitbash showing that powerful variant of the Viking, parts are from a Berserker and some mods/sculpts of others parts..

Known Variants
Grumium has produced one variant of the Viking, popular with the Third Hussars. An unusual variant, practically a new design, it replaces all of the standard weaponry with a large pulse laser in the right arm and three medium pulse lasers in the left. A Gauss Rifle rests in the right torso and an LB 10-X autocannon sits in the left, each with two tons of ammunition. The variant, dubbed the 2G, retains the CASE systems and adds two tons of armor, a Guardian ECM Suite and two double heat sinks.

Well, if you mean how to get that white, first i went with a light grey undercoat, then i applied white colour in many wet touches, mixed with a Mate Medium (Prince August Medium Mat to be precised)..
After that, using a very small brush, usually a 10/00, i went through the lines with a diluted black once again mixed with that very same medium.

It's a very long process and i must say the pic made it appear a bit darker but that's worth the result ;)

Hope that helps..

I love the lighting in the photo.  Really makes it look like its standing in a strong summer California sun.  Is this a photoshop tweak?

Only a nice French Spring Day( I've took this pic in April IIRC) where sunlight was sweet enough for a picture ;)
