About the Project

Got a GW Stormbringer magazine with a terrain / objective marker sprue. Had fun getting it all together and all painted up. Looking forward to getting them involved in a game soon.

The pool will probably get a layer of Nurgle's Rot to give it more shine. The grey primer and Corax White zenith helped.The pool will probably get a layer of Nurgle's Rot to give it more shine. The grey primer and Corax White zenith helped.
For the stones facing the circle I used an Athonian Camoshade wash and for the side of the stones facing away from the pool i used Nulin Oil. All sides highlighted with Grey Seer.For the stones facing the circle I used an Athonian Camoshade wash and for the side of the stones facing away from the pool i used Nulin Oil.

The zenith helped highlight the ribs etc. The main colour for all the skulls and bones on show was Morghast Bone. The wash was Aggrax Earthshade and highlightes with Morghast and a high area highlight of Wraithbone.The zenith helped highlight the ribs etc. The main colour for all the skulls and bones on show was Morghast Bone.

The head was washed with Seraphim Sepia. The way It settled gave some odd looking pooling just above the teeth. I knocked this back with a thin layer of Steel legion drab. The highlights were Morghast Bone and Wraithbone as elsewhere in the project but wanted it all the stay a touch darker than the dragon bones etc.The head was washed with Seraphim Sepia.

The horns were painted with watered down Wyldwood Contrast Paint. The zenith from black, to grey, white made the washes more effective and better contrast especially on the horns.

I could have gone for toxic gas, but was happy with fire instead. I could have gone for toxic gas, but was happy with fire instead.

To try and be a slight contrast to the blue crystal I used Targor Rageshade on the stones. It has a slight reddish tone but not overpoweringly. To try and be a slight contrast to the blue crystal I used Targor Rageshade on the stones. It has a slight reddish tone but not overpoweringly.

I used Guiliman Flesh on the sides and the tentacles. Then watered down Shyish Purple on the tentacles as a nice contrast. Morghast Bone and Wraithbone on all the teeth and spikes.

The way that the stone frames the terrain pieces I think they will fit in on multiple mats.

This was a fun project and I look forward to using them in multiple games.
