JetfireUK Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Nice mini! I would mix the last highlight colour with a little bit of ice blue for the very edges of the armour but that's my personal preference. Nicely painted too.

Ripper.McGuirl Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Oh hell yeah! Not enough marine with burly beards, says I. More beards, says I! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146819-brother-torsteinn/#findComment-1702963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 the beard would look much better, if it wasn't hanging out over TDA. a marine w/ normal power armour, would look much better w/ a beard.

BrotherAtrox Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I don't think it needs more highlighting. I would just paint something else on him to add more detail to the model. Make some battle damage or a campaign badge or something. Overall though its quite nice. Beards rock.

Bogus Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 This guy looks great! I don't think you need another highlight on him. But that's a personal preference. I'm not a fan of the extreme highlights. Also, that beard is great. I agree with the others here. We need more bearded marines!

Leonaides Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Only problem woudl be that that beard would either prevent him from wearing a helmet, or throttle/choke him if he wore it. Nicely painted though - as suggested above, maybe some sort of campaign/army marking somewhere (left leg perhaps) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146819-brother-torsteinn/#findComment-1703145 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The God Emperor Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Who is going to get ***** slapped? Nice work, now do some epic base to go along with the model.

Algoroth Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 The beard is a defiantly fun divergence from clean-shaven marines. I have to say the sheer volume of it makes him look a touch unkempt, though. Perhaps if it were tied/bound/braided (dwarf fashion?) so as to appear more disciplined?

Brother Richard Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Nice work. I like the blues... Good job on the details in the red. I really like the bullet holes in the shoulder. I also like the details on the face/scar. Honestly that drew my attention before the beard. It screams..this is a vet!

Apothecary Orpheus Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Really good job there,as for the extreme highlighting though not necessery will make the model stand out more,try some ice blue or a darker blend of ice blue +base colour and paint it on the top of the curves and where corners meet.No harm in trying,if you dont like it is easy to paint over.
