It is all too wonderful. 
The metalwork on the Master of madness is my favourite.

Hello - too much work and not enough hobby lately so sorry for late replies.
Thanks, Bane, King Arthur, ardyer, optimus, weismonsters, Kaaleb and Porkaborg for your comments!
- I prime with a light color (white or bone)
- I do a solid layer - for armor usually a mix of bronze, black and green (or red)
- Then the layering starts with thinned out numerous layers building up the tones and blending into the surrounding areas.
- A key tool here is a seriously good brush. I use a Winsor & Newton series 7 size 3 alot. I has a big body and a very fine point and perfect for blending very diluted colors (I guess due to it's designed for water colors)
An example for the armor on the Master of Madess:
1) First a solid layer was a mix of bronze, red and black
2) Multiple very thin layers of mixes of bronze/red/black adding more red to each layer. I might have used orange in the end as well (not sure)
3) Then went to pure greens and painted in and around the recesses making the tone lighter each time. (very thin coats
4) Did some edge highlight with pure gold.
Anytime - I live in Goteborg Sweden - so just come round if you are in the neighborhood
Thanks again!

I agree, the Runequest Broo's are really great - I have a few of them not far from all. Seems we'll be battle each other on ebay then ...King Arthur":30a7yhz0 said:...I love the Unicorn Broo, I have an obsession with Broo and have set out to collect the whole set...... let's see how long that takes! I have the Unicorn though
Almost - maybe not a tutorial but here's the basics of how I paint.:optimus":30a7yhz0 said:

Wow nice lovely addition, I've been going through the entire thread and your blog, and it's all great stuff very inspirational, love the way you do all the patterns, and love the pallet you use, really gives it a unique look

Alright! Just finished two more Chaos Dwarfs.
Khazek Doomlord - from the Chaos Dwarf Renegades box. Was considering painting him in his classic green with yellow chaos star. Decided though on a different approach with a patterned cloak.
...and Grimdur Gutwrencher. Continues on my mix of metal and normal color approach. His helmet has a skull resemblance so decided on blending the armor up to a very pale/bone color on especially the face.
Thx!

Holy crap! Khazek Doomlord is a bit special, isn't he, bloody amazing! the other chaps are nothing to sneeze about either but that pattern just works so damn well

Hi!
Was getting quite serious with the finishing of the Chaos Dwarf unit so felt like doing something a bit quicker. Turned my attention to my beloved C27 Mutant/Chaos Goblins. Very simple and great minis.
Got temporary fed up with my bases (after painting the movement tray for the Dwarf) so went to green. Might do these is the old style and let them into the army - we'll see.
Thx/Hans
