flintlocklaser Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Agreed, very nice look. The bolter strap is a particularly nice touch! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/137522-steel-scorpion-marine/#findComment-1585931 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ah-Shaulah Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 Thanks guys! The Bolter strap may well feature on all of my Scorpions, I loved the look of it once completed.

Till Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I like it a lot. I think using too many metalics can really make a mini look like crap. Having this opinion makes me really like the job done.

Cpt_Tiberius Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I like it. It's a simple yet effective paint scheme and I think the base sets the mini off quite well. The only critique I could think of would be to do some washes on the backpack to darken the vents and the joints. -T.

ShinyRhino Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Very nice! Care to share how you did the strap? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/137522-steel-scorpion-marine/#findComment-1586829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Eleysium Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Very very nice model over all. It is simple and uniform and that makes it look great! The raised edges of the armor could use either a chainmail highlight and or mithril silver, but other than that it looks very nice. I also love what you did with the Red Scorpion shoulder pad. Make sure that you show us what a whole squad looks like when you get one done.

ancient god Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Still looking good. What colour did you settle with for the grenades? Looking forward to seeing the first squad now..! :cry: Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/137522-steel-scorpion-marine/#findComment-1587151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ah-Shaulah Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 ShinyRhino : Its a kroot gun strap, with the feathers/fur removed and bent into shape. Brother Alecium : I prepared the remaining eight marines in the squad last night, so now for some factory painting. ancient god : I went with a dark green, with highlights and washes, then a satin varnish and I am looking forward to the first squad now too.

Midas Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 He's purty. Nice, I never thought I'd like an "almost" all metalic scheme. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/137522-steel-scorpion-marine/#findComment-1593228 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I like 'em ^_^. Colour scheme looks like metallicised Relictors – nothing wrong with that of course – your scheme looks great. Nice bases too. Usually where metallics fall down is on large areas found on Dreads/vehicles etc, but you have an excuse to paint whole panels black to match the marines shoulder pads so that should help. Can't wait to see more. Cheers I Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/137522-steel-scorpion-marine/#findComment-1593319 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack13 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Very nice! Can't wait to see the rest of the army! How did you do the base? Is it modelling putty or something else?
