taLLis Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 As i've never painted any chaos before i thought i would give it a go. This guys going to be added to my diorama which is steadily getting there! Thought i would get some opinions before i cracked on with the rest of the bunch. I apologise for the picture quality! http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k420/ddsmith1_photos/P210808_1605.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k420/ddsmith1_photos/P210808_1606.jpghttp://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k420/ddsmith1_photos/P210808_160601.jpghttp://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k420/ddsmith1_photos/P210808_1607.jpg All opinions welcome! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
blood_raven_240 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Yep, its cool =] The red's a bit bright, maybe, but other than that, it's cool. Have you got any pictures of the rest of your diorama thing? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/#findComment-1670578 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 That guy is a real nice contrast to the Spears of the Emperor fella, looking really good, I especially like the base texture :> Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/#findComment-1670609 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetfireUK Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I like the red and the gore on the chain axe - the figure looks suitably annoyed that someone chopped his hand off too. The only thing I could suggest would be to add a highlight to the edges of the armour (but it could be the pictures). The shadows on the shoulderpads look great too by the way.

A17roolz Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I've been following this log and I must say, very impressed and excited how it's coming along :D I gotta ask though, since I plan to do the same when I revive my old Ultramarines army, how did you do the dirt effect on his legs? It looks awesome! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/#findComment-1670989 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rival Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Very good, only wish I could paint that well... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/#findComment-1671155 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImperialTemplari Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Hi TaLLis, he's very nice, love the missing hand and the base is excellent, not sure if I like the yellow/green wires on the head, but very nice figure regardless.

Xenocidal Maniac Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 That's awesome! The hand-stump is really cool. But just FYI, World Eaters are angry about EVERYTHING! So saying he is angry about losing his hand is redundant! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/#findComment-1671235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
taLLis Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Cheers for all the kind words and advice! blood_raven_240: I agree with you it is bright, I was toying with a darker shade for a while but as nurglespuss pointed out, they contrast quite well, which is what I wanted!! JetfireUK: I Think your right there mate, maybe a little highlight on the edged would help. In the past my highlighting has always been very harsh, with these models it's the first time I’ve really tried to blend the colours which is why there isn't a large highlight, but I think your right. A17roolz: Cheers for your support dude. The technique is actually quite simple and effective. I started with a mix of scorched brown and snakebite leather which I applied quite heavily to the base, with the same mix I dry brushed the same mixture onto the area in which I wanted weathering. I then gradually added small amounts of bleached bone and repeated the same process. Remember to dry brush a smaller area each time though because otherwise your just covering up the same area. I hope this helps a bit! your welcome to ask if you have any other questions at all. The diorama is on its way, work is impeding my progress slightly at the moment. As for his hand it does look like he’s just eaten it, maybe he had to gnaw it free or something!

Patrick O))) Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I really like him :lol: it's a neat idea, the missing limb. I like the 2x2p base too, I used that for a vet sarge a bit ago, give him some weight :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/144150-world-eater/#findComment-1671924 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prot Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Very cool. Funny, at first because of the blood from his mouth, I thought... man did that dude just gnaw his arm off? That's serious butchery right there. I really like the skin colour of the head. I wish you had slightly bigger pics. Nice job!
