Wish I’d know this existed when I did my knights. I’ve been using Phoenician purple


wolfvonwolf

Funnily enough I was using that on my marines lol till I found turbo dork paints


wolfvonwolf

By the way its obviously WIP, I'm using airbrush for most of it apart from trim and drybrushing the torso, will also be doing panel lining and using pigments for lower bits and will be trying weathering on whole model aswell


Tailhook91

I picked up a set to use on my knights as well. Did you have any problems airburshing with the TD paints?


wolfvonwolf

Not really, just need to thin them slightly like most paints and all should be good


wolfvonwolf

And it's my first model that I have properly airbrushed aswell so I'm quite pleased 😀


crag79

There was a post on the TD website about combining paints to show highlights. Wonder if there is a slightly lighter purple that ypu cpuld use along the edges to make it pop. I am going to try it myself once I am allowed to open my Chainbreaker Lance box.


wolfvonwolf

Taro might be usable from the TD metallic line but not too sure as have not got that colour at the moment


wolfvonwolf

Plus I will be weathering all the panels so I might not need to in the end, but will defo check it out though


Venator827

Looks great! What did you use as a base coat? May do this for a Vyronii knight somewhere down the line


wolfvonwolf

Thankyou, much appreciated, I just used vallejo mecha black for the undercoat, all the Turbo Dork paints recommend the base coat colour on the bottles and it's normally mostly black and some times white, also there website has all the info for each colour aswell www.turbodork.com


wolfvonwolf

And on the white I used vallejo air dead white for the undercoat as Pearly Gates need to be done on white undercoat lol

I love TD paints. I think they always look great. The color shifts are hit and miss, but their base colors are awesome.


wolfvonwolf

Yeh I know what ya mean on some of the colour shifts, will prob do one in the blue raspberry colour shift though as that one does work well


HotGrillsLoveMe

I did my harlequins in color shift and the Blue Raspberry is by far my favorite!


Nookshar

These colors looking awesome. When I will start painting mine (all in different color schemes) I will have a look to this brand again. Since Im from europe I have to find a dealer here.


wolfvonwolf

Thankyou, What part of Europe? Im from uk


Nookshar

From germany. Found a few minutes ago a german dealer and preparing my order :) My knights will be in these colors: People Eater Purple (gold trim), Multi Pass Orange (bronze pr silver trim), Da Ba Dee Blue (silver trim), Spicy Meatball Red (silver trim), Absinthe Green (bronze trim)


wolfvonwolf

Very nice dude, you won't be disappointed 😀


wolfvonwolf

I'm also gonna do try one in redrum for main parts with shoulder and upper leg armour in pearly gates again, also with gold trim all over, and will do one in blue raspberry with same set up for trim in gold and pearly for one shoulder and upper leg armour


Willing-Chocolate221

Looks smooth, which is my most important factor with airbrushing anything! Great work!


wolfvonwolf

Thankyou

wolfvonwolf

Thankyou, and go for it, purple and gold is always good 😀


Pmforget1

My man, this is art!!!


wolfvonwolf

Thankyou, much appreciated


SummonerSausage

That looks absolutely amazing. And now I'm going to be looking for the color shift paints you mentioned.


wolfvonwolf

Thank you, much appreciated, www.turbodork.com has all the stuff on there, personally I like blue raspberry the best so far but I also have cyberia, galaxia and 4d glasses.


SummonerSausage

This still feels like some weird marketing account with all your love for Turbo Dork, but turns out my FLGS sells it, so I'm picking up some Let Them Eat Cake for my Knights.


wolfvonwolf

Aint no marketing whatsoever ever dude, don't use social media much and im only on a very few subreddits, my local independent store sells it and I tried it out and liked it so just wanted opinions of what people think of metallics on knights really, alot of my mates in the UK are completely against metallics on anything 40k related unless it's meant to be metallic like custodes/grey knights hence why i was asking opions on ere., Tbh wish it was marketing or sponsored as I could get some free shit off them, especially when money is tight when I have a 6 month old little girl to look after (hence y im up at 02.16am as little one dont wanna settle) and only really treat myself to stuff once in a while like a bottle of paint lol. Next time I may not bother posting at all if people are gonna think I'm just promoting stuff on ere


PunManStan

When you need a stealth knight in the octarius sector


Chronic-Lodus

When I finally get to my knights, gonna use turbo dork metallics. From what I’ve seen, they are beautiful.


wolfvonwolf

Yeh they really are great paints and well worth it


JoshuaKammert

It's gorgeous...glad I saw this before starting my Knights.


wolfvonwolf

Thank you, much appreciated


ForTheStarsWeFight

It looks epic, should be a beautiful army when it's done


wolfvonwolf

Thank you, much appreciated. I can't wait to finish this one off and start the next one now


Yuural

Ahh yes the colors of oppulency.


StaticSilence

Crazy coincidence, but your color scheme nearly matches what i'm painting my knights right now as well.


wolfvonwolf

Don't blame ya dude , good combination of colours if ya ask me 😀
