Captain Malachi Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 This is my 5th company captain, and he's almost done, but I was wondering if you could all help me with ideas on how to improve him (I'm not going for golden daemon, just good tabletop quality). I know the pics aren't good quality, but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it. Thanks. -_- I will be basing him though, so don't put that as an idea lol.

kanan Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 ok first things first. great work so far. your painting is very clean and tidy and by the looks of it you are thinking your paints, ~gives you a purity seal~ anyways im thinking of the chest eagle being Sun Burst Yellow and also maybe a dry brush (with the small GW brush) on the edging of the shoulder pads, which are a dark gold of Shining Gold. all in all good going mate. keep up the good work. peace ps maybe once that is all dry a wash of Gryphonne Sepia over the chest eagle and the gold trim. cheers.

Captain Malachi Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 Thanks for the advice, you can't really see it but the chest eagle is actually painted the same colour as the shoulder trim, it's just that the rope on the chest covers it, thanks for the advice about the drybrushing on the shoulder pads, I probably never would have thought of that lol.

Skull_Lord Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I would suggest wash and highlights on the entire model. And you should also paint the cabling and details on the head. Other than that, it looks good Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150950-captain-saracen/#findComment-1755483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
