Took advantage of the surprisingly warm weather over the weekend to get the initial sealant pass on the Proteuseses in preparation for the addition of the water-slide transfers and weathering. A little work after work last night and the weather was nice enough to get the second round of sealant on as well!
As part of the Fallout Hobbies kickstarter I'd picked up a few custom sheets with Thousand Sons icons and hieroglyphic cartouches to help differentiate the look of the army somewhat from the last iteration. Used the sponge method to add a little weathering here and there, running on the 'less is more' method to start with to see how it goes - it's always easier to add a little more than it is to cover up too much!
The Thousand Sons symbol transfers were a godsend, as I'm just rubbish at painting 'em! Rather looking forward to adding them to the vehicles I'd held onto from the previous run. I'm musing adding some mud effect to the treads and undercarriage and perhaps a bit more aggressive scraped paint. So far so good though!
