Deathwatch Genestealer Cult progress

I've bee slowly working on the genestealer cult from the deathwatch box.  My goal is to have a simple paint scheme, but my lack of free time has made this a longer than hoped progress.  The purestrains, primarch and familiars are basically done now, and the hybrids have the base coats.

For the purestrains blue and purples I have been using reaper paints, and I really like how bright the colours are on them.  For the hybrids I need to do some washes and finish up the lights before moving onto the cultists and characters.

Assassinorum Chaos Finished

Finally, I can say these guys are done.  I motored through the 4 assassins relatively quickly, but things slowed down for the rest. I didn't do anything special for the forces of Chaos, so they are similar to my Dark Vengeance guys.  For the sake of time I didn't bother filming anything for a tutorial, but because they are basically the same as my dark vengeance guys there are already tutorials for those here:

I'll post some pics of the complete set shortly.

I'm happy with having the box finished since its nice to have something totally done before moving onto the next project (a problem I have).

Assassinorum Chaos Progress

I haven't forgotten about these guys, in fact I'm almost done.  I did the cultists in a similar fashion as the ones from dark vengeance, so they painted up pretty quick.  This is a base coat, dark brown wash (army painter strong tone) and a single highlight.  The marines and sorcerer are also similar to my dark vengeance guys so they can be mixed in (or at least go on the same shelf).  I should finish these guys with enough time to do one model or unit before the Age of Sigmar stuff comes out.

Chaos Cultists Finished

Here's the finished first batch of Chaos Cultists from the Dark Vengeance set.  I did these guys pretty quickly as they are going to be a fodder unit not lasting very long on the table.  Pretty simple paint scheme using a base, wash and then highlighting with the base colour.  Paint list shown at the bottom of the post.

Oh, and someone over on youtube pointed out I painted the Sergent's mask skin colour.  I didn't realize it was a mask, so I'll have to go back and fix that.

Chaos Cultists WIP

Here are some work in progress pics of the Chaos Cultists from Dark Vengeance.  I'm doing these guys up quick with a base, wash and highlight method.  The highlight on the cloaks will be the same as the base to make it a bit more muted.
