Bonjour Little Stuff, your painting is really nice mate and don't worry about your english its great :rolleyes: is my french ok? lol I've just started Ultramarines to, it makes a nice change to painting Blood Angels :devil: look forward to seeing more of your work.

Thanks guy, don't worry Tancred, your french is perfect <_<

 

it makes a nice change to painting Blood Angels

 

You was a blood angel player before? It's space marines with red armour no ?

I have choose Ultramarines because it's seem to be the basic army, there are on all space marines box^^

How long have you been play/painting 40K for?

 

I know warhammer 40.000 since one year because of my best friend (he plays a blood angel army, that's why I know them) but it's my first army and my first painting.

 

Manserus, you have discovered my secret^^ It's my first mini, that's true but my friend gave me a lot of tips and I have read a lot of, tutorials on different web site like ciryl abati etc.. . And when you have a friend near of you to give you a lot of advices, it's easyer to make a good painting^^

It's great that you speak french Manserus but can you speak only English please, it's a very good exercice for me^^

Wow that's the truth. Your friend giving you advice really paid off! You have grasped a lot of advanced yet simple techniques. For example, the use of a brown undercoat really gives some depth to the blue.

A lot of first time painters usually master the painting style of flat colors only. If you've flat out skipped that stage, i think your are heading on a path to victory brother :D

Lol, no, last night, I tried to paint his cape and aquilas on his chest and on his shoulder pad in white and it's.. .horrible^^ How can I make a good white? My friend told me that when you want to put a color like yellow or white on a black base, you need to put several layers of intermidiate colors, do you know what are these colors??

I have to make the sarge and the heavy bolter.

 

And there is my first tactical marine, with assault marine legs and a magazine of terminator weapon

it would be best to get your hands on the new foundations and washes. they are 1000000% worth the money.

 

they cut painting time and increase quality. honestly they are fantastic.

 

and id say go for the grey foundation with thin layers of bleached bone ontop, finally building up to white.

I tried without foundation and I want to know your opinion,

Ciryl Abati marines are a good inspiration^^
