Notorious paint-wizard, Jez Allum of Jez’s Painting Blog is becoming something of a regular feature on the Warlord site… his paint work can be seen across all kinds of Warlord-related Facebook groups, and his brush never seems to slow… though his most recent project features a particularly interesting feature…
Beneath the glow of a blacklight, his Isorian force GLOWS!
Jez – I liked the Isorians from the first time I saw them, but it was only once I had a chance to actually sit down and paint the miniatures up that I truly fell in love with these models – the Geigeresque armour has a really gribbly feel to it – giving them a really distinct feel…
I painted the force in a chitinous purple scheme – and added an eerie alien green glow effect on the minis to give contrast. This was achieved by using Vallejo Fluorescent Green paint… and I also added some clump foliage which I made by myself as well, and coloured it with some children’s neon paint, to add even more glow!
Below we’ve added pictures of each unit, with a blacklit photo beneath each to show the effect up-close!
Jez was also gracious enough to share a pictoral ‘How to’ guide – showing you step-by-step how he painted his Isorians – showing you exactly which paint he used, and in which order… follow the steps below!
An impressive and (in typical Jez fashion) slightly off-the-wall approach – but one which we love, and which has caused quite a stir amongst the offices at Warlord HQ!
If you’re looking to start collecting an Isorian force, head over to the Warlord webstore where you’ll find everything you need – why not pick-up the recently released 500pt Scout Force to get your collection started?
