LunchBox Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 Apothecary done. Not the smoothest thing I've ever done, but not terrible considering it's my first "white" Marine. http://coolminiornot.com/pics/pics14/img4b1c16862ab3d.jpg Also, some work on the 5th Vanguard for the Golden Bolter Squad entry...still working on the jump pack, but what you see is mainly finished. I really worked hard on my blending for this guy, and alothough it may seem minor, I feel that the right leg on this guy is a HUGE win, and one of the smoothest, and most "correct" things I've ever done. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v492/lunchboxmtbr/vanguard5wip-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2207044 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Toddius Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I really like them both. The smoothness of your style is getting better with each mini. I guess the only critique I have is the apothecary light. The white just seems tl be drowned out by the white of the armor. It might be more successful with an alternate hue. Possible red in nature so as to create a triangle of color and frame the model in. Or green so as to balance the green of the bolt pistol and medical arm. Nice work :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2207100 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zsoulless Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I like the Apothecary.. But the Other Guy is Painted absolutely Beautifully.. You had to have used the Ugliest Head I have ever seen in my life for him.. But Paint wise hes gorgeous!

LunchBox Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 MT...thanks, bro...the light is actually amber, but it's placement, and the contrast between the cage around it bleeds it out. SB...thanks for your continued support! Z...thanks, and I agree the head is hiddeous...I love it. It is one of the ugliest heads out there, but after painting so many standard Brad Pitt/Arnold heads, I wanted something completely different, lol.

Brother Loring Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Both extremely beautiful! The vanguard looks as if he's had 7 shades of astartes :P beaten-out of him, but as stated before, looks brilliant! Squad shot???

Brother Loring Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I know it's pretty boring and not incredibly productive, but... awesome! Absolutely superb, really superb! I tried very hard to find to find something that I could criticise (not to be nasty, more to be helpful if possible) and the only thing I could come up with is that I'm not all that fond of how he veteran in the top right is holding his bolt pistol, but it's still incredibly well painted! Congratulations, and best of luck for the competition!

Starks333 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 very nice :P im curious how all the guys in this scheme look together so far? Alex Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2222481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Fingered Villain Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 brotha brotha brotha man, good stuff. I second Starks's comment, a group shot would be wonderful. Some purple hues in the gold, or maybe even like a jade or phthalo green shade in just a couple REALLY light glazes could add a splash of color to accent what looks like some purples here and there in the grey. Hard to tell with out seeing these beauties in person. Cheers.

Iacton Qruze Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Nice work. Excellent stuff, as always. I'm interested to see your entries for the single model and vehicle categories... I assume you're entering all three? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2222585 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunchBox Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Thanks guys. I'm entering single for sure...but I'm not much on painting vehicles...I do have a quad bike stripped and ready to be primed, but it's hard for me to get motivated to paint a vehicle. Who knows...maybe I'll surprise ya! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2222615 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Sounds odd but the bolt pistol on the 2nd vanguard model (the one that should of been a beaky) looks like his hand is limp ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2222632 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Harbinger Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 You know I couldn't find that tut for faces that you put up. I thought I had it marked I guess I was wrong. You should put up a new one with your more learned abilities showing us how to make mind blowing faces.

LunchBox Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 Sounds odd but the bolt pistol on the 2nd vanguard model (the one that should of been a beaky) looks like his hand is limp :D His wrist is wrenched a bit downward...it doesn't picture well, but it looks pretty cool in person. You know I couldn't find that tut for faces that you put up. I thought I had it marked I guess I was wrong. You should put up a new one with your more learned abilities showing us how to make mind blowing faces. If you search my name in the tut section, it *should* come up somewhere. However, you are correct, in that, I have moved past the old techniques. As requested...here's the squad: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v492/lunchboxmtbr/finishedvanguard5.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/18/#findComment-2222721 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Harbinger Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 You're right about the "limp" handed guy not picturing well. Thought that front view does make him look a little better. I've seen you use that arm positioning a few times, any reason for the affinity?

LOL...I think this is the second one, and the only real reason is because the base is tall, and I have a dozen or more of the DA power sword arm.

LunchBox Posted January 22, 2010 Author Share Posted January 22, 2010 Well, for those of you that don't know, we had a fire at the house 2 weeks ago, and we will be out of the house for another two weeks. So, the squad entry will likely be my only entry...which is a shame, because I was kicking some @$$ with the single entry. Good luck, all!
