Nice work. I feel like those larger airbrushed (I assume?) glows are a little lacking in contrast, maybe a subtle shading pass over the airbrushed glow could make it look a bit sharper and better-defined.
I think you are right, I need to go in and highlight the OSL and shade it to push the contrast, it has some but it hasn’t come out in the photo well so it clearly isn’t deep enough
Looking great! Backdrops your adding make all the models look at home.
Israfyl is done too!
I did go back to the void engine and add more contrast but it still needs some work, as do Israfyls flames but it is ready for table top at this point.

Its been a while since i did a painting session mostly due to Baldurs gate.
The Dreadguard sculpts are so lovely im going to do them one by one as these folks are basically characters. Looking forward to getting more time to paint soon.
First Dreadguard done and dusted, the other 2 are close to complete as well.
Im very happy wih how this came out, and the cloak looks as well.
Lovely as always. Keen to see the whole unit!
Well then you are in luck, i resisted another night of Baldurs gate and finished them up. Dreadguard done!
Very cool!
More words because reasons.
Got the Wraiths done last night, and got started on Dyssiss and Hellyth. Once they are done ill have a 75point list painted!
Dyssiss all done and dusted, not sure I’m happy with the flames and lack of OSL, so I shall revisit this one at some point.
Nice work. The flames look pretty good.
Thanks, I think I can do better but I’ll swing back round to them later.
Not sure about putting the def/ ARM on the bases, I know it is handy but does it look ok?
Marking the bases is a matter of personal taste. I like clean black base rims myself, but your numbers are very clean and don’t attract much attention, so I certainly don’t think they look bad.
I like it. I’m not doing “normal” OSL on any of my “ghost” units, they’re shaded as if light is coming from within, bright close to the “core” and dark far away. Dyssiss might get some extra light sources in the flames, though I don’t have her yet. They’re ghosts, to my way of thinking - it’s okay for them to be lit different from other units, as if they’re following different rules of physics.
Not had a lot of time to paint for a couple of weeks but to get my hand back in I got one of the objectives and a flag painted up.
Ill try to finish up Hellyth in the next week or so.
I got Hellyth and the other objectives finished up last week but its been a busy few days, I’m on to the cavalry next, I’m having fun painting the manticore flesh and glazing in purple for markings.
Nice work.
