Thanks for the comments guys.

I have been working on finishing up the legs. There are a few more details I want to put on the legs but for the most part they are done.

Highlighted the bone on the legs. If there are any additions that should be made, or things that you think I should do, let me know, I'm always up for making my models have more detail. Anything I missed maybe?

Ok so I tried out the black backing on the sarcophagus. Not convinced, but I'll see how it looks when I have the red more polished up, and the angel a bit more completed.

Wow thats cool, it took almost exactly 12 hours for you to repost pictures =-D

 

I like the bone more, because the DW don't have black armor anymore, so it'd make more sense...

 

Maybe for the DA insignia, you could do that the 'rock' colored, like the chest eagle.

Fixed up some of the sarcophagus, cleaned up the bone, added gold to trim, (one more gold layer to go), cleaned up green, cleaned up reds. Cleaned up stormbolter.

Well thats it for tonight. I have got alot done on the front of the sarcophagus, but I still need to highlight all bone colour, and do a 2nd highlight on the green. Red needs a final highlight as well. Need to touch up bone in a few areas, but i will wait till all detail work is done.

The back of the sarc needs to be started as well, and i need to touch up all the areas where Ii have held on to the model and paint has worn off.

I have a Plasma Cannon and a Dread close combat weapon. Both forge world.

I often think that an assault cannon would make him look meaner, but I think if I paint the cannon right it will look pretty nasty.

 

I'm just painting him one piece at a time, in order to keep my focus, but I'm thinking of freehanding the deathwing insignia on the right shoulder, and possibly the crux terminatus on the left shoulder.

Hey Dark_Vengeant, loving the Venerable dread! pose is sexy and you've done a great job with the bone colour - great highlighting there, keep it up :rolleyes:

 

for the CCW, i think you should keep it fairly uniform - bone plateing, perhaps with gold rivets to match the sarcophagus...perhaps you could colour the claw differently (black?) to make it stand out a bit more

 

just a thought, keep it up ;)

 

<<Damascus>>

Hey all, just an update. I have the first bone highlight on the sarcophagus, and i have glued the legs to the torso finally.

I still need to work on the back of the sarcophagus, more to come on that. The front is nearly done with the exception of the purity seals that are giving me a heck of a time.

I am now starting to work on the arms in between my detail work.

I tried out the red on the plasma cannon, but I am not satisfied with it, so I'll be going with the bone where you see red.

The blue is the basecoat for the "plasma" effect which I will doubtlessly be taking forever to complete.

Looks great man! I'm still loving it. I too am not super fond of the red weapons. Someone once pointed out that with the red, all the DA weaps look like toys..which, now when I look at them, they kind of do. =-D And I like the plainity of the bone on the close combat arm, though I'm almost certain you'll be doing something with it?

 

And theres a brown smudge on the plasma arm, and under the red, theres some red on the bone...and I just realized the stuff I pointed out were probably all from washes...
