Hi everybody! I've got a new custom Mk.7 to showcase! After having some a brief moment of rest from School and Commissions, I wanted to treat myself to a custom for myself, a simple repaint of a Mk.7 Spartan in the Red Shift armor coating.
I really like this armor coating but I'm unsure if the promotion to get it is still available. Nonetheless I wanted my simple repaint to be of this armor coating. I also used this opportunity to test my new paints and brushes! I even followed Videogamecollector117's
Youtube video of how to paint a figure for fun! You should check his videos out they're pretty neat!
I took a Mk.7 figure from the recent blind bag, primed it in gray, and painted the legs using citadel abbadon black, the arms using citadel celestia gray, and the upper half using model masters red. I sent over the figure with a nuln oil wash, and then dry brushed citadel leadbelcher for silver weathering.
I also quickly painted and weathered an assault rifle for him which turned out alright.
I don't normally do just repaints, but the Mk.7 has been a great canvas for multiple simple repaints and these armor coatings are pretty neat honestly. So maybe look forward to more practice projects with Mk.7 figures lol.
