2005-03-20 IG Dreadnaught

Next weekend I am off on holiday so this is it for the competition. Three months went fast. I will continue to finish this IG Dread when my parts come in.

I used a mix of bleach bone and Bestial Brown to make a tan color. My paints are old and when the paint dried I saw the results of this. The paint more gooped the model than covered, this is odd since it initially covered so well with three or four thin coats. Damn, I might drop them in brake fluid and start over. I am going to try highlighting and such first then we shall see.

I also starting to apply metallic looks to the bare areas.

2005-03-06 IG Dreadnaught

Well the night was long so I tried to just finish up what I had. Today I talked to the local GW Rouge Trader Store and Ted informed me that my order for my right side missile launcher would probably not arrive by the middle of March. That information more or less put me out of the competition.

Oh well. I have applied black wash to everything trying to avoid where the major components will be connected with super glue.
