Last Friday saw a lot of work on this bad boy. From highlights to further colouring and actually painting the quad lascannons, that afternoon saw a lot of work done. I even started working on the commander which is hanging out of the turret dome. Now, the pictures aren't the best, and there is even some dust visible on the model itself, but these pictures give a good idea about how the tank looks pre-weathering.
I've got some Forge World weathering powders ready. The exhausts and barrels will get a layer of soot and of course the tracks will get some caked mud and rust, same as the hull. Another nice thing to experiment with here are the new technical paints from Games Workshop: Ryza Rust and Typhus Corrosion mainly.
All in all, there is still a lot that needs to be done before this tank will deliver havoc in Apocalypse and Escalation both. That, and this blog was in dire need of a proper update.
wow reaaly good job on the painting. now lets see how it does against a trancendant c'tan next friday :P
