Dave worked with Joe on the colours for the Imperial Knights. He worked on the House Raven, naturally going for red to link the Knight to the Mechanicum.
“The Imperial Knight has a lot of large armour panels,” says Dave, “which are an excellent
place to try out blending. With the red basecoat applied, I highlighted the top half of the
armour panels by mixing in ochre tones, working up to a sharp edge highlight. The
shading was done with thin, carefully-applied washes over the red basecoat using Rhinox
Hide and Abaddon Black mixed with Lahmian Medium and water. It takes a few hours to
get this effect, but it’s worth the effort if you have the time and the inclination."
In Jan 2012 he was working at Games Workshop Doncaster (TBC), and has clearly been recognised for his skills with a brush as part of the Eavy Metal Team.
