Featured Project: Spacewolves vs Genestealer Diorama

Featured Project: Spacewolf Scout VS Genestealer Diorama
Display Standard Commission
By Nuke Arts (nuclealosaur)


Another fun project - this one is done as a birthday present and it was made around the same time that
Skyrim was still very hot (got to play a bit of it, quickly) so I was really inspired by the setting and especially the music - really epic














This project was done within two days - and I didn't have time to photograph any WIP pic....

Basically I made the base first in a big batch (made about 10 of them), painted both figures separately and glued them once everything is done. Sounds easy, but not really.

Enjoy!

Featured Project: Ork Meganobz

Featured Project: Ork Meganobz
Display Standard commission
By: Nuke (Nuclealosaur) 



A fun but challenging project as they're all metal so I had to do a lot of filing and dry fitting.
Also there are many parts which are hard to reach.

Another challenge is the color scheme. The preference from the client is "Bad Ass and grungy", and the color preference is black.

So I spent quite a while researching and trying out different ways to paint. The hard part is figuring out how to highlight them. Normally I do extreme edge highlight and zenithal lighting, but with them being dirty the effects aren't really going together that well.

In the end I decided to use vallejo steel to highlight the edges and wash with oil paint - after weathering is done it turned out like the client ordered: Badass

Studio Opening!

Yay for our first blog entry!


So I wanna say a bit about who we are, while I'm waiting for the lacquer plastic primer to dry.The name is Fasai, and I'm the same guy that makes videos for youtube.com/nuclealosaur and Nuclealosaur Painting on Facebook is me. 




Why Nuke Arts?
Okay I gotta start with a really simple reason: English isn't my first language and pronouncing words like nuclealosaur can be quite difficult. So I thought, hey! Why not come up with a name that, of all people - I, can easily pronounce!

So I talked to Dave from Dave Saunders Graphic, the guy who designed the banner and logo for me, and we thought Nuke Arts would suit the purpose - concise and it conveys the ethos of Nuclealosaur well: powerful, fast, and unique.

The purpose of Nuke Arts is to form a team of cool professional artists from various aspect of arts, be it miniature painting, motor modeling, military scale modeling, sculpting, graphic design, illustration, architecture, photography and etc. Nuke Arts is a channel where we can promote our works of art, get seen, receive more commissions, make a living out of what we love to do, and produce more cool stuff for the fans.
