Squallbuddy Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Hello B&C! I'm fairly new to the board, (been lurking for a while) but I would like to know what you think of a few of my figs. Constructive criticism welcome!

Snozz Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Not bad, I don't like all the gold on the chaplain though. It doesn't fit for me but that's just my taste. I think you need to shade the gold more, it looks very flat. I like the regular marine very much, the crusade iconography is very good and the terminator isn't half bad either. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155168-black-templars/#findComment-1811532 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squallbuddy Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Yeah, i wasn't sure if i liked the gold all that much on the chaplain either. I used dwarf bronze as a base for the gold thats probably why the gold highlights on it dont show up all that well. As for the Command Vet. I really enjoyed painting the iconography and the armor scrapes and what not. Helbrecht looks good too but the pic doesn't do him justice... and the Termie was for the blackreach paint contest on the forum lol, but it obviously wasn't top of the line.

Snozz Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Try a wash of brown (Not ink) on the gold. It might improve it. Also for your black, if you want to make it even better, I shall refer you to Kik's BIG iron hand tutorial, his black is simple but absolutly amazing, I've tried it myself, and it works great. If you feel like it give it a go, his tutorial is under the tutorial section. Good luck. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155168-black-templars/#findComment-1811549 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelmage99 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 The gold would really benefit from a Badab Black wash IMO. And, for God's sake, base the chaplain and Helbrect. :D An even colour (green, brown or grey depending on your terrain) painted on the side of the base would help too.

Squallbuddy Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Lol, I based the chaplain once and I screwed it up and it came off in one big flake. It will get done again, but im more concerned on the paint right at the moment.

StrangeGuy Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 That is one sweet looking Helbrecht, any chance of a close up on the inside of his cloak? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155168-black-templars/#findComment-1813355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar Molotov Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I like the use of the crusade iconography on the initiate. It really helps to prevent the Templars from looking boring. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155168-black-templars/#findComment-1813365 Share on other sites More sharing options...
