For Month 2 of the Challenge I finished 5 classic wraithguard.
Not too much to say, I painted them the same way as the guardians. Except I did add a lot of transfers for the iconography. I think they turned out pretty well, overall.






Here is a link to the official write up on the c0wabunga! site.
Next month, Warp Spiders and Striking Scorpions…
Wow, right out of a (good old) White Dwarf. Beautiful.

Yeah – I was forulating my reply in my head before I clicked into this post, and with apologies for echoing Suber almost verbatim:
Wow! They really do look like something straight out of the 2nd edition rulebook or WD.
Outstanding! I just spent a minute or two staring hard at the tiger stripes to work out if they were decals I didn’t remember.

Thanks mate! Very high praise indeed and catching the feel of the old codexes and White Dwarfs is definitely the goal here 😀
There are a lot of transfers on these ones but the Tiger stripes are just freehand, and aren’t to hard to do decently even with my skill level!

Great work with the freehand across the loincloths. Really helps break up the model and add a fun secondary focal point.

Thanks! Yes I think it keeps the heads as the main focal point with the eye then being drawn to the guns and loin cloths so I think it works well as an overall composition, even if I didn’t put that much thought into it until after they were painted! Glad you like them anyway. 🙂
