Right, current state of play – bought Alpharious and Lion El’Jonson.

I am however working on Vulkan.

Didn’t have a copper paint for his armour however, so I have mixed one up using 2 parts Retributor Armour 1 part Mournfang Brown.

Probably going to wash that with Reikland Fleshshade to make it bit warmer.

Spent ages working on the armour as well.

Waaagh flesh, nuln oil, many thin layers of warpstone green, and some moot green highlights.

His flesh is basically just Black Templar Contrast and dry brushed with eshin grey and dawnstone.

*helps if I remember to attach a picture!*

So after my recent update on Alpharius, I can almost hear you Salamander fans asking “What about Vulcan!?!”

Never fear Vulcan Lives!

To be fair the issue with Vulcan is there is a huge amount of tiny detail on his and I am currently not feeling 100% confident in doing it and him justice.

As an example on his right shoulder pad there are tiny little flame designs. If you look at the Forgeworld art they have actually painted it like flame (red, orange, yellow etc.)

What I have turned my attention to and this is something @seldon9 encouraged is the base.

Vulcan’s base is huge.

It comes in 5 pieces.

You have the gaming base (which seems tiny).

This slots into the bigger base pieces, and there is a large wrap around piece that literally locks into the back.

Then from there there are two additional pieces that slot in next to the gaming base to give a sense of a broken wall and rubble.

I have painted the base with Zandri dust – agrax earthshade so far, and some leadbelcher with agrax earthshade for what looks like a metal area.
