[RETOUCHED] Airbrushed chaos space marines!

Post by axia »

Hi to all, this is the last unit that I've painted, a unit of Thousand Sons! I've used the aribrush for the blue armour and the chipping technique for the first time, I hope you like it! The bases are done with some bits, sand, pigments and ready made grass! Love the metal bits of the model, despite the poor quality of the legs that I found horrible.. hope you like them!

Wow, very nice job on the unit! I really like their bases. How long about did it take you to paint these?

Could you tell be what the make and model of the airbrush and compressor are that you use? I'm looking to get an airbrush that works well for miniature figures.

Looks great!

I'm looking for another air brush as well. Something good for detail. Please share type of airbrush.

Man.
I remember a time that nobody would've admitted to using an airbrush on their minis. There was just an overall predisposition against it.
You'd have been flayed alive.



I'm SO happy that time is gone.

thank you man! I'm happy to read this! However I used both airbrush and normal brush. I think that the two things combined can give great results! Where one can't arrive.. can arrive the other!
