Next Project

Well hello again folks.  Just throwing a quick note out to say thanks to all of those who have viewed my blog and taken part of the survey.  Also I wanted to toss a couple of pics up of my next model.  This one is part of a fun (well I think it is fun) project I started with my some of my friends a while back that I nicknamed "Foreign Exchange Models".  Basically you paint a model for a friends army.  I do not know if everyone else has enjoyed it as much as I have, but I really enjoy bragging about the models that my friends have painted while I play.  It is just another thing to talk about and honestly I think the Nor-Cal gaming group aka G3, Brotherhood of Mutants, etc is about as good as it gets.  Nothing personal to those who are out of this area, but just keeping it real :).  Anyway, here is the model I am working on for my friend Anthony.  To be honest this guy is long overdue in his Grand Army and I am honored that he picked this model for me to take part in the model exchange.  As you can see he started the model with an interesting technique.  He basically primes the model and then applies a light drybrush of a metallic gold which provides some initial shading.  From there he goes in and paints in the rest of the colors.  I am sticking with a traditional paint scheme for Kharn in order to fit in with the rest of his army, though I will say it was very difficult to not go with a Pre-Heresy palate.  In the end I hope that I put out a model that he finds worthy of all the Apokolypse games that he participates in.  Lastly please take a look at my WIP section as I have posted a few more pics of the Infinity model I just finished.  Any comments are welcome!!!
