The Sanguinar Showcase

Here's a showcase of a model I painted a few years back.  This was one of my first major NMM attempts, and probably one of the best. Partly because I had some good reference photos and was willing to spend time working on him.

Here's the post for the tutorial:

Santa Cruz Hono(u)r roll- Sanguinar

In reviewing my hit stats I saw a spike of refferals from Santa Cruz Warhammer, so I thought I'd check it out.  Well, it turns out my Sanguinar WIP grabbed their attention and earned me a spot on the Honor Roll (I'm honoured :)

Here's a link to the honor roll:

The Sanguinar WIP

Here's a couple pics of The Sanguinar, Blood Angels special character done in Non Metallic Metal.  I decided to do this guy because of the 'Eavy Metal painting guide that just came out.  I had the old White Dwarf that the article originally ran in (#363), and most of the other articles so I might do a review by proxy... or I might buy it... still undecided.

Anyway, I'm basically following the article, but using Reaper paints instead of GW ones.  Less mixing that way, and that makes for easier painting.

Colours used so far are (reaper unless otherwise specified):
Oiled Leather (base)
Palimino Gold (1st highlight)
Ruddy Leather (1st shade)
Devlin Mud (GW Wash, 2nd shade glaze)
Badab Black (GW Wash, 3rd shade glaze)

Still to come:
Buckskin pale (2nd highlight)
Pure White (final highlight)
Plus all the other areas...

Here's what I have done so far (more pics after the break).
