The House Davion one on page 48? I'll have to wait till it's sunny out. This CFL is skewing my color perception.
Yup, that's the one.
Here is a photo of my Wasp. I'll get some better ones for a thread in the showcase board. What I did was this:
1. Primed white (all paints Reaper and thinned with Liquitex; primer and dullcote are Testors)
2. Did multiple thin coats of Rainy Gray mixed with Linen White to a get a slate color
3. Drybrushed the legs with Earth Brown, realized that was stupid, then painted over with Earth Brown and drybrushed with my "slate".
4. Drybrushed the lower torso and arms with Earth Brown, which helped to make a transition.
5. Added my details.
6. Dipped in the Army Painter Quick Shade, which is the dark tone (middle version). I probably could have done the lighter toned version as it left a lot of brown on the slate portions. In some ways it looks good, but in others ways it just isn't what I wanted. Perhaps a simple magic wash would have worked better.
7. Once dry, I drybrushed in Rainy Gray for weathering, to help blend, and to lessen the effects of the Quick Shade.
8. Jeweled the cockpit.
9. Base details added.
10. Dullcote and then glossed the cockpit.
So thoughts? Right now, my biggest worry is that the Quick Shade just added too much brown to the slate areas. If you people have other ideas, I'm all ears.
PS. Force, a lance that was painted 19 years ago? Damn, that's longer than I've been playing.
