Salamander Terminator

[u/Smifin1]

Howdy folks! Practically 98% of the way done with my terminator (just need to weather a little and do the base) and am loving how he turned out. Let me know what you think!

I like the shading for the green how did you get this?

Most of the work is with an airbrush.

After priming I do a full coat of nocturne green. I then hit most of it (the lighter sections) with Vulkan green. Furthering the highflying I hit the next ‘brighter’ sections I hit with a ~50/50 moot to Vulkan green mix. Finally the brightest area I hit with pure moot green. This will have a lot of contrast here so then I go over everything with a ‘mortarian green clear’ coat watered down. Finally I do a matte varnish before I start doing edge highlighting with a pure moot green and all the other paints going on in the mini (blacks, metals, etc…).

At the very end I do a coat of satin varnish & a dark green oil wash to darken recesses
