Shaun Carlin Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I go around claiming to be an Ultramarines player yet if you look at my posts theres not that many of them featured, so I decided that I would start posting my stuff starting with the latest edtions to my collection.

Trajan Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Sorry for being unclear :blush: I meant the painting :) I like that blue youve done. :) -Trajan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Carlin Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Cheers buddy, painting it took about... 2 and a half hours I think. And making it took the length of the 3rd matrix movie which is *goes to get DVD box* 2 hours long I remember cause I starting making it when it started and was finished around the time the credits started so 2 and half hours painting 4 and a half total. Thanks for your reply next will be 2 rhinos with full interior detail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Carlin Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 He has a MK 7 helmit that has a longer mouth part http://i34.tinypic.com/11lk5t4.jpg http://i37.tinypic.com/a11eeo.jpg Hmmm after looking at it, it does look like a MK 4 helm...

Brother-chaplain Astador Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Its fine mate and yea to me it really does look like maximus armour Looking at that closeup shot though I really like the shade of blue you've gone for, its very suitably dark in my opinion, some nice subtle highlighting aswell, some really crsip painting only major cruitique I would have is I can still see mould lines other than that, great work p.s. I love your pimped out 'stacked' rhinos in the first pic, its the new craze :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Carlin Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Whoa Nelly!! Mould lines really? Where abouts? Right enough Theres not much I can do now but I was sure I got them all (O.O) Its a small but dedicated workspace I have and i was running out of room those are still being painted together, Their inside details are complete only the metal and details remain for them now.

Brother-chaplain Astador Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 The mould line I noticed was on the left side/shin of the marine with the 'maximus' helmet This is the first time I've really looked closely at any black reach marines and i see a lot of nice armour variants I'd like to steal, a few of the helmets, legs etc Would love to see those termies I see lurking in the background posted and Im sure they will be in good time, im just a bti starved for ultramarines models at the moment ...and sunlight Looking again at the drop pod you really did a great job, theres a lot of intricate painting involved in that and you made it look as if there was no difficulty at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Carlin Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Aw rite I see it now. Ah well sure I don't mind too much but thats some eye for detail mister i mean i painted the thing and didn'd notice but you spotted it well done. The terminators are at highlighting stage and the space marine spearhead stuff plus 5 more stearnguard vetrans are lurking in there too all black so far. They will all be posted as they are done Cheers for your input buddy :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
