This is as far as I'm getting as what I call batch work. I'm gonna try the new GW washes on them next week. They should be here Monday afternoon so Tuesday morning I'll give them a go.
Since this is for eBay I know I'll actually finish them.
Anything to not be working on my Empire

| Just a quick shot of the helmet using the new washes (Devlan Mud)
I like the washes actually. You cant really put too much on and it dried smoothly. This particular guy has seem one too many coats of different paint. Not sure my green eyes pop. I used Camo then Rotting.. meh. I don't think I'll wash the red until I finish with my edge orange. All the metals need love as well.

| A layer of yellow after wash. I think I'll leave it at this for speedsake. A nice focal point for the time spent.
..damn that center strap skull and left pad are annoying me

| My little test jumper is complete. I kept him dark from the wash using the base red over it. Freehanded some markings and badges and stuffed some dead grass on the base.
We leave for Naples, FL this Friday so at least I have my ratios worked out for the other 19 Assault Marines for when I return. I think I'll turn my Jump Chaplain over to the BA cause as well.

| Thank You gents.
I did not want the shiny red/orange as the bases were rubble. I tried dusting up the helmet and legs, but meh. Other ideas were tried and retried on my guy here. I ended up with a nice, quick, dark looking model still. I'm happy, but never practice/test model up an important squad member ..doh!
Some of the freehand has been touched up but nothing to post about. _________________ 2nd place is the 1st loser

| Think you will be able to reduce the thickness on the coming models? Or is that a side effect of the foundation paints? _________________ Dark Angels 1750 win/loss Record Win - 22 (The Dark Angels wiped some silly pod marines) Loss - 13 (Brice's Necrons wiped me) Draw - 2 (The 13th hold out in alpha take and hold)

Yes as this guy has a few too many layers. The others will be smooth.
Too bad I went straight for the Veteran as I sorted things out. He still looks fine in person and should blend in well with his squad. _________________ 2nd place is the 1st loser
