Dread-naughty Demio
This is my Deathwing Furioso Dreadnought, Brother Demio. He's one of 3 Dreadnaughties with inter-changeable arms that I run, the other two are painted green. All three can break down into a torso, arms, and legs when destroyed in battle. He's also the first mini I've posted here on CMON. There isn't much shading or highlighting on the bulk of him, but the caution stripes are shaded fairly well, IMO. The stripes are around both fists, and on the lower left leg. painted with Tamiya flat yellow and black, straight out of the pot (when new) then shaded with GW orange ink. I had to tape off the stripes as I painted them, but they came out well. I went for a stark white appearance, hence the lack of shading on the armor plates. The darklining is RP Tauren (cleric) brown, the BEST brown ever. EVER! GW Mettallics painted straight on for the trim around the front. The skulls that are barely visible on the right arm are GW decals. This was pretty much the last mini I painted before I began thinning my paints (about 1.5 years ago), altho I was able to work a little bit of thinning in on the little Dark Angel on the front and on the purity seals. I rated him a 7 (tabletop base +1 for shading on stripes +1 for interchangeable arms and other details that aren't visible in this pic like individually painted wires and such). Better pics will follow, but I had to take these with my friend's digi-camcorder, in my office at work, with only overhead florescent lighting. Sorry they're so dark! Comments appreciated!
