Brother Atheos Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 Well the wash isn't dry for some reason so its headshot's for now. Here's a peek at the skin but i still need to do a couple more highlights on it. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/fezuk/IMG_1938.jpg And i had a fiddle with the levels in PS and this is roughly the tone im going to build up to... http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/fezuk/IMG_1939.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155243-orange-marines-army-blog/page/2/#findComment-1815595 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Atheos Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 skin and rebreather pretty much finished now. probably wont go back and pick the eyes out. Will start touching up the stains on the armour and highlight this afternoon then round it off by doing the blacks and metallics tonight. Pretty much stress free so far, with pretty much all of the time spent so far on the skin as i'm a little bit OCD when it comes to painting skin these days. Im stuck so far tho with regards to how i want the head to fit in with the pose of the body... EITHER: Aggressive http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/fezuk/IMG_1940.jpg OR defensive http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/fezuk/IMG_1941.jpg (yes i am aware of the HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE mould line on his hand... my trusty camera pointed it out for me).

Brother Atheos Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 Hrmmm... the further i go with this the more he looks like a slightly bleached blood angel lol. Anyway here's where im at. Probably gonna end up doing one more highlight on the armour aswell as a quick highlight on the black then its base coat the metallics and wash em then do the pouched et voila! Then i have the fun of trying to decide on how to base them. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/fezuk/IMG_1943.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155243-orange-marines-army-blog/page/2/#findComment-1815717 Share on other sites More sharing options...

warflag Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 I did orange marines a while ago and mine turned out so damn orange, you need sunglasses, or you have to pass a leadership test modified -2! What colour did you start out with? Cool work however! Keep it up!
