WIP Emperor's Children

Hey Bunnies

I thought I would show you what I have been working on recently.

I decided to redo my Emperor's Children about 2 months ago as I was unhappy with the colours. The purple was flat and vibrant, the gold was bordering on eye-achingly obnoxious. I compared my colour scheme to the one in Horus Heresy: Betrayal and found it wanting.



So here is a quick work in progress of my new Emperor's Children - from a time of honour and discipline:



And here are some close-ups:

I hope you like my work, I am happy with how they look so far. Expect to see more pictures as I finish them. Please leave feedback below :)

  3. Purple is bang on your source material. What are you going to do for chipping, weathering etc? And will you be applying transfers?

    1. Yeah, it is pretty close. Really happy with the scheme. I will be putting the usual transfers on, cant remember if they are red or white though. Weathering will be a simple sponge technique - probably with Boltgun Metal/ Leadbelcher.

  6. They look very similar to your source. Are you using a metalic purple or a purple wash over silver.
