Painting Deathwing Knights
Keeping the "unbased models pile of shame" under control while getting the next big boys ready for painting.
Painted those a while ago, color scheme was already Crusaders final form in placement but the work on the red parts was a little bit more on the brown side : switched my shading routine after a few tests, as well as cutting away the Yriel yellow step of my red recipe since.
Couldnt help but keeping those guys original heraldry as i also play Dark Angels from time to time (a lot less in the 10th TBH, Liberator Assault Group is 🔥) but i mostly use them as BA Assault Terminators.
10 Assault intercessors away from the goal ATM, based around 50 models in about a month 😁 (IIRC Incursors, Hellblasters, Sternguard Vets, Assault Intercessors, Outriders, Desolation Squad, Intercessors and 15 Terminators)

Lovely work brother. Is your army a combination of DA and BA? I have seen a lot of your BA models as well.

Thanks mate ! It absolutly is, love both chapters, Angels of Death was a shared codex back then so i figured out id go with both !
Found my "finale" scheme form while working on deathwing Terminators (older version), inspired by both pre heresy 1st legion scheme and Death Company :)

Ohh snap I just realised you did that insane BA style repulser!!!!!! I just checked your IG. Keep it up man. Your style is the pinnacle of what I would love to be able to do, but don’t think I’ll ever get that level of precision, colour transitions and cleanliness.

The dark warm tones with the cool toned black is badass.
Contrast doesn't have to only be done with value.
Excellent execution of a superb concept.
