Pyriel Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Part of my 1:st company project. The first test libby. Sorry about the bad lighting, I had the ISO set to low apparently. At first I quickpainted the mini with rough and sloppy green armour (its the traditional salamanders librarian colour scheme) but when I came to the blue armour parts I had started to really like the mini so I put more effort into it. Thats why the blue armour is painted way better then the early green. It kinda messes up the whole mini but what the heck. Its also a little chipped here and there but I´ll fix that later on. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1st%20comp/lib01.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1st%20comp/lib02.jpg Everything is done except the book, I simply cant come up with something to put there, I´m thinking some pics like planets and pentagrams but I´m all out of ideas. Any help dudes? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155327-first-terminator-test-model-librarian/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Drake of Nocturne Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Amazing. Completely amazing. I love the blends going up to the highlights and the NMM on his staff and all his chains and otherbits and pieces 10/10 ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155327-first-terminator-test-model-librarian/#findComment-1813885 Share on other sites More sharing options...

c-wrex Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I think it lookfs fantastic. I've just never liked the look of green and blue together on the same model. You've done a fantastic job, as always, though.

Master Toddius Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 The model has gorgeous fades and contrasts in your usual awesome green and a really good blue. But I think that the model is 85% done Mr. Pyriel. The 85% that is done is brilliant. The Force weapon, the open books, and the scroll chained to his back all need more attention. The gold nmm on the FW script is a little suspect. It could be the pic bit in any sense I know you could do much better. The eagle finial for the fw needs more shading/highlighting. The books need writing and icons. I'm being a little more critical with you because I know how good your are. But again, the 85% that is done is really awesome. ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155327-first-terminator-test-model-librarian/#findComment-1814191 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapter master 454 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 that to me looks like a golden daemon entrant and you call that sloppy. did you suffer opposite day or something when you said that, i mean to me your a master at painting. i can't see how models can be painted so good, the colour and shades are perfect. i'm green with envy (no pun intended!)

Brother Ziggy Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I love the NMM, very well done, amazing infact! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155327-first-terminator-test-model-librarian/#findComment-1814276 Share on other sites More sharing options...
drizzt73 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 simply awesome! I love your style and it is one that I am going to try and replicate. How thin do you thin your paints or to ask another way how many layers of each colour, do you wet blend? Any chance of a step by step- pretty please??

daggitkiller Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Top work indeed. Planets would be cool. You should google galileo's drawings and use some of his sketches or leonardo divinci's. Some cool stuff imho Those are some hearty mushrooms to survive on the very edge of a lava flow :lol: Kidding aside, the crystals are spectacular and a nice touch...

aNex88 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Really like the NMM on his staff. I like how you changed it up and went with Green armour with some Blue instead of Blue armour with some Green, if you get what I mean hahaha. Any thoughts on doing some text on his Book-Banner and Book on his shoulder pad?
