CosmicCreations Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Well I had a short lived WIP thread, but I was too busy to really update it. As such, thought I'd just share some finished pictures of the pair. I normally have a lighter, blue background but l thought I'd try black today. Still not sure about it, but hey ho, keep trying... http://i.imgur.com/CxPqtq2.jpg http://i.imgur.com/AiMBvCG.jpg http://i.imgur.com/jpKgSIH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/GiBi3SL.jpg http://i.imgur.com/wsab5i3.jpg (I'm quite proud of the sword) http://i.imgur.com/oIxzBpz.jpg As always comments and critique welcome Cosmic Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandMagnus Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Allright, thats it! Thats the 3rd time I see a NNM power sword combined with TMM and it looks amazing, Im gonna do that from now on. On another note: GREAT MINIS! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/#findComment-3385557 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqatone Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Nice job, love the sword. One thing - but didn't loken have light hair? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/#findComment-3385563 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicCreations Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 Thanks for the kind replies everyone, I'm glad you approve! @Aqatone: He may very well have done, but it's all fiction and personal preference, I don't like the light hair he was painted with by FW, I've always imagined him as either very short, shaved hair, or black :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/#findComment-3385565 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Just one question brother Cosmic, have you done the base with weathering powders? Or how have you managed that nice red dusty colour?

Or how have you managed that nice red dusty colour? I have, nothing fancy or expensive though, just coloured dust made from scraping a knife across some old artists Pastels I had lying around :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/#findComment-3385576 Share on other sites More sharing options...

batu Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Fantastic peace ! Everything about it is just awesome. Could you tell us how you did the sword ?

CosmicCreations Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Fantastic peace ! Everything about it is just awesome. Could you tell us how you did the sword ? Thank you very much, Batu :) The sword was just the usual masking off an edge (opposite edges on both sides to speed up the process) and then airbrushing 3 main colours in sections to get the smooth transition. Next time though I'm going to try a dark Grey instead of pure black.

BrotherGyram Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Great work! And you can indeed be proud of Abaddon's sword. Looks very nice! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/#findComment-3386301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicCreations Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Thank you very much, BrotherGyram. Quick question to anyone, I know this is still a heavy Power Armoured forum but is it my understanding that Imperial Guard and such are now allowed? I have a Praetor Armoured Assault Launcher I'd like to share but only if its allowed?

batu Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Thanks for your reply :) Post your Armoured Assault Launcher in this thread, nobody will have a problem with that. Edit your Topic caption so people will know that they will see not only awsome pre hersy stuff, but some IG goodness too :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276344-loken-and-abaddon-finished/#findComment-3388304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disruptor_fe404 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Well, since I love being that guy... Abaddon's sword is slightly curved at the top. Miscast, I'm guessing. Can't fault the painting though, it's excellent beyond belief!
