Genestealer Cult Paint Schemes [With Digital Painter]

[ilovethenids]

Hello, all!

I'm posting this because I am trying to decide upon a paint scheme for my Genestealer Cult, but I am having trouble getting inspiration. I want it to be my own cult (Rather than just one that already exists) so I have the justification to make up my own lore and whatnot, and I was hoping perhaps some people could give me some inspiration by posting what they've done. For additional help, I have made two digital painters - one for an Acolyte Hybrid with a heavy rock saw, and another for a Neophyte hybrid with a shotgun [Well, they're more just outline drawings that you can fill it, but you get the idea].

They are not perfect by any means (there are gaps that make it difficult to use the bucket tool, stuff that like), but they are a decent start. I figured I would share them so that others may use them or even improve upon them - perhaps we could make a generator like the one from B&S for the Space Marines! If people like these and seem to put them to good use, I may end up making some more (Aberrant, another Acolyte, Primus, Magus, Patriarch, vehicles).

These look great—thanks for sharing!

Thanks! I have made another one for a regular Acolyte:

Just made two more yesterday - one for an Aberrant and one for a Magus. I am currently working on a Rockgrinder.

Aberrant: Aberrant
Magus: Magus

Managed to create another set for a Goliath Rockgrinder and an armored sentinel. I have yet to see anyone using these, but I hope that changes in the future! If people would rather have the actual PSD files those are available too.

Just finished another paint scheme generator for a GSC Chimera - this one took a long time, to get all the circular rivet things outlined.


The only ones I haven't done are the Patriarch, Purestrain Genestealers, and a Leman Russ. The Russ will be next.

Please, please, feel free to use these - there's not much use in putting them out there if nobody wants em

Hey ilovethenids, I stopped lurking and made an account just to say: Thank you. These are really awesome and well done.

I do hope your work ends up in one of those fancy painter things they make on other sites, like the ones of bolterancchainsword, but I don't know how to make that happen. Either way, good job!

I hope if you do get them all done, we can put them in a bunch file and share it around. I can at least manage that.

Managed to finish one for a Leman Russ. Here ya go!

Thank you so much for sharing these. Will try them out.

Just finished one for the Patriarch! All praise the Four-Armed Emperor!

Well, I decided to make a second Neophyte paint scheme generator, one with a blank face. Here ya go!

[ilovethenids]

Managed to make a Purestrain Genestealer one, and I realized that with the use of the Black and White photo adjustment stuff, I can actually make it a bit better, like the ones on B&C. The only thing is figuring out how to get selection to work so that it only fills particular areas, and the gradient is an overlying layer. If anyone wants to help out, let me know!

Could you make one for brood brothers?
