Vassakov Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Needs highlights/shading really - at the moment the colours are very flat. Still, looking good for an early WIP.

Ompfris Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Personally I think you should whip off the storm bolter... looks like he is struggling to hold it, maybe the combi Plasma or a pistol .... or maybe even just raise the arm from the elbow, just a little Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147991-da-master-of-the-fleet/#findComment-1717237 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it's semi-pinned in that position. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147991-da-master-of-the-fleet/#findComment-1717242 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Malachi Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 One other problem with the stormbolter is that the strap is floating sideways in the air, doesn't look right, the model is kinda let down by that arm, sorry.

Cpt Ultio Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 I was going to have the arm pointing straight forward, but it doesn't quite fit. http://www.gothic-valentine.net/bolter/posetwo-1.jpg http://www.gothic-valentine.net/bolter/posetwo-2.jpg http://www.gothic-valentine.net/bolter/posetwo-3.jpg http://www.gothic-valentine.net/bolter/posetwo-4.jpg That was the original pose I had him in Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/147991-da-master-of-the-fleet/#findComment-1717396 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I think if you lean his head forward, toward his target, he'll look great. Kinda targeting the enemy through furrowed eyebrows.

AlexCrute Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 It's a question of your attitude to brute force. :D I don't think you'll damage the model at all, unless english superglue is WAY stronger that aussie superglue.
