Sons of Horus WIP

Septembers WIP has started afresh after games day and I have learnt a lot through feedback and really studying the finalists and winners to see where I am going wrong. Haven’t started work on anything new at the moment as there is no rush as I doubt I will go to GDUK2013. Anyway here is a bit of fun I am working on and a test of colours that I saw on GW Stockholms Facebook page. I haven’t captured the colour they used but its a close and needed to get this miniature finished once and for all.

A long way to go but I like the colours and will be glad to get him finished.

Almost done, hes been chipped and shaded a bit more and I freehanded the Horus badge. Not my greatest mini but I love the colour scheme.

Hi Marcus,
Of course it was P3 Arcane Blue 90% mixed with 10% GW Warpstone Glow. I added a little Vallejo Ivory to the mix for the highlights where needed also.
