In an effort to do some advertising of sorts, I picked up some Salamanders Firedrakes Terminators and painted them up for an eBay auction. When they were released I knew I wanted to paint them up but as I wouldn't be playing Salamanders I had little impetus to purchase them and paint them. Since I've shifted to doing commissions, I can justify painting almost anything!
I had a great time painting them, though there were some challenges. The green mid-tone went on very glossy for some reason, and was only toned down with the use of Tamiya matte sealer (amazing stuff). I also had some trouble getting good pictures of them, as I prefer the black background to the white. The black background was just too dark; and while I'm not 100% happy with the white, they look pretty good.
