Ruin with dead SpaceMarine
This small ruin was based on postercard. A Bulkhead from Necromunda was cut
in half with a saw and then glued to the base with a HotGlue gun.
The Spacemarine corpse is glued together onto some GreenStuff. I used
an older model I had in my BitzBox, putting the arms at angles, so that it looked as if the Marine fell IA (as in MIA...). The GreenStuff was punctured
with a small screwdriver to make it look like some deadly fungus, maybe nurtured
by some fluid out of the Marine.
The base was covered with 1x1 cm card tiles, over that some WhiteGlue and
then birdsand. After spraypainting with ChaosBlack I
drybrushed the base
with CodeyGray, the sand extra with a light brown and then BubonicBrown.
The SpaceMarine and the Bulkhead were drybrushed with MithrilSilver and then covered with a light coat of ChestnutInk, to create the image of being
old and worn. Some bits on the Marine were painted on, but mostly I just
left the highlighting, as I am not a fan of Marine painting... (I donīt like Miniature painting
that much, making terrain is something I enjoy way more :_)
The special parts of the Bulkhead were highlighted with red and yellow, to make
it stand out a bit. The moss was drybrushed in GoblinGreen, with lighter
and lighter coats of green and yellow and then white.
As a small extra there is a dropped handflamer on the base, too. I like to add stuff like
this, as it gives some life to the scene and makes it look more "real".
The small pic below shows the Marine before painting.
