I always paint the base of flyers quite early on in a project so I can glue the stand to the base. This then gives me somewhere to rest the model. I really like this model. It looks a lot better in the flesh then it did in White Dwarf and it looks even better when placed next to my Storm Raven.
I think, I might paint inside the cockpit and the pilot next. That way I’ll be able to glue the canopy in place. Watch the skies, more to follow soon.

Thanks a lot, we appreciate any help to continue and grow Tale of Painters 🙂
Great start. Airbrushed used for the blue tones shading?
Hi Vladdd309, yes I used my airbrush to get an even coat of Ultramarines Blue all over, I then used the airbrush to line the armour plates with a darker blue. Finally I used a lighter blue to add some subtle area highlights. I didn't want to go too over the top with the highlights at this stage because it can look too airbrushed if that makes sense.
What airbursh do you use? I'm looking for an upgrade.
Scotrot, this should answer all your questions and your wallet will thank you.

Looking very nice for now…
Maybe you could do tutorial for painting Ultramarine Storm Talon?
Hey deka, I have more WIP blogs planned, you should be able to piece together how I paint the model from each WIP post. Feel free to ask any questions. Finished model showcase blog by the end of the week.
Cheers dude!
That will be OK…
Could you name colors you use in that WIP's?
