Lemm's Resistance

Fantastic Patriot, how did you make the weathering (stepbystep) I like it very much. What an idea to paint him yellow, really great.

Thank you all for the positive feedback!

I do agree that OSL on the eye would make it pop, but I was too afraid to try it here so chickened out and decided that it's merely a lens, not a light source

It's actually super, super simple.

First I painted the yellow as normal. Then I took a tiny bit of packing foam from a blister, dipped it into Charadon Granite (GW Foundation Paint from their previous line - it's a very dark greyish brown), wiped off the excess and applied this to the yellow preferring edges. Then I merely painted (with a brush this time) the patches with Boltgun metal being careful to leave some of the Charadon Granite onto the edges. And that's really all there was to it.

Super simple. I can't remember where I read about this but when reading I was kinda sceptical in that I didn't believe it could be that simple. But it really was and I'm happy with the end result.

The Patriot looks stunning. I have to try the blister foam method

Haven't posted pics of new stuff in a long time. I'm currently building Duncan, Bruce, and Valor. Hoping to get them painted this month.

But here's a team shot with some of the terrain we have just to post something:

Very nice looking squad!
