Hello all!
My next planned video is a tutorial for my custom Stormhost, the Northern Crowns. I wanted to make it a two-parter, one for the basic infantry and one for characters
I started work on an old Lord-Castellant for the character portion, but the footage was nearly unusable and the paintjob itself is underwhelming. The model itself still a WIP, but I might go back and start from scratch. The airbrushing was subpar and I was trying out some modifications to the scheme that didn't turn out quite right.
I am having a lot of trouble capturing footage, especially of me airbrushing. I end up having to hold the brush very close at an awkward angle that leaves me nearly blind to what I'm doing. I'm trying out a new setup and I hope that footage in future videos will be better, but I will have to go back and re-record with a different model.
On the plus side, I was digging around in my Stormcast bin and I found several of the easy-to-build Vindictors, which will make a good candidate for the infantry model. I also want to do a comparison with a Hammers of Sigmar Vindictor and talk about where the idea for my scheme came from, so that'll be fun.

| I normally don't use an all-over wash for this scheme, but I decided to try out an oil wash. The problem is, I rushed the drying time with a hair dryer, and these older models don't have as many deep panel lines as something like Space Marines, so I got unsightly blotches everywhere. I haven't decided if I'm going to start over yet, but I'll at least have to re-record the footage. |
