Gareth Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KBQLCd80RY4/Ulrw2u1nBlI/AAAAAAAAE64/BbjHICo9_ks/s1600/IMG_7531.jpg I was blown away when I first saw the Centurions. I space marine wearing a warsuit was just too awesome. The models are a little stumpy straight out of the box so I added a spacer to the waists to lift them up a bit. I also chopped the legs at the hip to create striding poses so they don't look as static. Having painted the entire 4th and 1st company and half of the scout company, I feel it's time to start a new company. I really like the fluff for the 2nd company but find the paint job lacking. As a compromise I decided to go full retro and paint them like the the old 2nd edition marines. Oh and here's the all important comparison shot. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-aJx4ve0q1kY/Ulrw6nks0MI/AAAAAAAAE7k/Mlokcs79CfU/s1600/IMG_7538.jpg Loads more pics over on the blog I contribute to. http://taleofpainters.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/showcase-ultramarine-centurion.html#comment-form Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281874-ultramarine-centurion-devastators-second-edition-colours/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funfunseeker Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Those are awesome! That paint job is incredible! Only thing I don't like about the models is the helmet so I replaced mine with standard me 7 helmets I had spare.

Legatus Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Very well done paint job. If centurions weren't such an affront to the integrity of the Space Marine organisation lore, I would have liked that.

The Emperor's Champion Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I actually grabbed the Index Astartes:Centurions article out of curiosity.They're not too bad, actually.Kinda take several different existing idea and just take them to extremes.

Aspecti Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Shouldn't the sergeant have a white stripe on his helmet, he is a veteran afterall? ;) Splendid paintjob though.

Crusader Bob Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Wow, just wow. You've just made something i've thought impossible, i now like the idea of getting some centurions (and chopping them) Right now i don't know if thank you or insult you (they aren't cheap).......... i'll settle for thanks i guess. Seriously, splendid job Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281874-ultramarine-centurion-devastators-second-edition-colours/#findComment-3496477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethrion Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Wow...just wow...those have blown me away. The quality is incredible, so good in fact that I love the old paint scheme even though I usually can't stand the bright colours. So impressed mate!
