Bonefleet! Shaltari Dropfleet Commander
Ceremonial fly-by
And after a few coats of varnish and the aid of my lightbox, the cruisers are done!
I like to gloss varnish my models in general as this is meant to dry as a harder wearing protective layer, then I knock the shine back, in this case I have finished with two layers of satin varnish for a slight seen across these majestic alien hulls.
I will be coming back to this project soon-ish as I continue to work through my stack of stuff. Next up will either be some frigates or a battleship.
“Next up will either be some frigates or a battleship.” –> Dreadnought 😉
You have done a great job with these! Lovely work! Cheers, Michel
Thanks very much! That Dreadnought is a little tempting now that you mention it. 😉
It’s a very cool idea, I’ve not seen this style of paint scheme for the Shaltari before, I think it really works. Especially the very subtle green glows in select places.
Cheers! Glad that you noticed the greens, I wasn’t sure if I had done enough there to add a bit of something else to the scheme. Trying to decide on where to pick out on Shaltari is a mine field as I don’t to spend days picking out every gribbly thing that might be something, but don’t want to do too little either.
I think it is just about the perfect amount, visible, but not overpowering.
