LunchBox Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Been a while since the last update...I've been working on my Emperor's Storm Tactical Squad as well as some non PA'd minis. I have 4 members done, and started the Sgt. I'm also working on another Marine, but I can't show it, as it's for the RaF Marine contest. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v492/lunchboxmtbr/tacsquad4marines-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v492/lunchboxmtbr/esmarine3-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v492/lunchboxmtbr/bunkeredmarine-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v492/lunchboxmtbr/tacsgtwip-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/7/#findComment-1773329 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starks333 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 well since we know you cant sculpt...maybe you shouldnt hurt it :lol: hahahaha nah, make something out of it if its being painted to display...or just leave it as is if its just "something to paint" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/7/#findComment-1773548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetfireUK Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I love your work as always and it's always interesting to see what you do with your 'painterly' style next. It might be down to me taking more of an interest in NMM but the gold (especially on the shoulder pads) really glows. As for the Ebay haul; I'd only do subtle changes to the piece and paint it up to your usual amazing standard.

Asiriya Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Very impressive work sir. I wonder if you would ever consider filming yourself doing a piece, not necessarily the whole model, but to demonstrate your glazing technique.

LunchBox Posted November 24, 2008 Author Share Posted November 24, 2008 Thanks all! that chaplain and those jump legs look familiar :woot: everything is looking good, in fact a lot of things are looking better...specifically the blending and the lighting You got it...that's "your" Chaplain. I decided I really like that model, and a conversion would only detract from what I feel is GW's finer sculpts. I'm including him in my army. As far as the new army...I figured I wanted an army to play with, and I also wanted to practice blending, and trying different methods. I've started base coating a bit more instead of going right over the primer. I like the way it's turning out. I'm hoping the practice will improve my competition pieces, and make them smoother. On each Marine so far, I've tried different blending methods, concentrating on (and changing) the sequencing of layers. That's why some of them look good, and others not so good. The Sgt. is coming along nicely, except I keep losing my actual desired color in the middle (on all of them). I'm going back in and glazing it in, but it still seems a little subdued. This will be, and has been, a learning experience for sure.

Starks333 Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 well remember if you go over your desired colour it will not look the same...if you put red over it, and then try to glaze it back, it will still be slightly redish...this is how you can soften shadows, by going back over with the main colour to kinda bring the shadows back in line with the colour Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/7/#findComment-1783710 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draakur Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Everything is pretty much just straight up gorgeous... but that techmarine... oh my :) Just so damn awesome. Kudos on all your efforts man, you produce such great quality minis.

LunchBox Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Thanks...the techmarine was kind of an accident. I love the model, but hate painting it. I just started tinkering with it between glazes on my other stuff, and found myself focussed on that mini for two straight nights.

Askren Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Hey, first time stopping by this thread, and I have to say, I am floored by the quality here. I personally love the recent Chaplain most, just for the color, which is beautiful. I'm assuming it's glazed, because of the thinness of the paint on the belt buckle. Any way you can share a little info on how you got the color? I'd love to do the same on my Chappy. Great work on the rest of the Marines, too. Dynamic, well painted, and really gritty. I love it. Keep up the great work. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142610-lunchboxs-wips/page/7/#findComment-1789208 Share on other sites More sharing options...
