I finally got around to painting the destroyers from the Indomitus set. Very cool models and the first models with “power sword” style weapons, which meant needing to come up with a way of painting those. I’d settled pretty early on on using the same sort of colours as I used on the glow parts of the models, but only really decided to go with the by the book power sword look as I stated painting these models.
Photographing these was a bit of a challenge as I varnished the blades to give them a bit of protection (glazes do not bond very well to models and can rub off pretty easily), and even though I used satin varnish the glare from the lights was quite strong. I found a solution in the end which was to place my lights much further back than I usually do, reducing their intensity.
With these models finished, I only have three models left to paint to reach 1000 points, two characters and the Doomstalker.
