Last night I was able to spend a little time doing some further work on my Pandora crew, specifically the 3 sorrows I've been working on.
Bearing in mind that I'm only aiming for 'table top' or gaming quality. I'm not expecting to win any competitions with this lot.

1st off, the sorrow I showed you last post, this week I've been working on the base, touching up a little and applying washes. In the case of the iron work I've used Gryphone Sepia to give it a weathered, rusty look. Around the pipe you'll see I've applied some Orange, I thought this might be a bit heavy handed but I'm actually quite pleased with the result, be appreciative of any views you might have on this, should I apply more of this to look like rust?
On the sludge flowing from the grill I applied Ogryn Flesh wash, I like the result. I was going to do a highlight on the sludge but might leave it as is, after all, as I said, I'm only after gaming quality. Lastly I applied a highlight of Adeptus battlegrey to the stone work on top of the Black wash I'd applied earlier.

This is the most progressed of my Sorrows but here's another one that's almost done, the base is less interesting but I've followed the same process as described above. The camera flash has rather taken out the effect of the wash on the metal work. Might have to apply some 'rust' to this too.
Finally here are all 3 sorrows. One more session and I think they'll be done.
The one in the middle is very weak. It bends with no provocation so needs to be treated carefully. If you're building them.. you've been warned.

I've also painted the bases, these are GW foundation paint Hormagaunt Purple, but I'm wondering if I should bring them up to Liche Purple.. any thoughts?
