Good painting m8, reallly nice.

 

One point bothers me though.....due to the fact that uve only used green, black, white and khaki(SP?), i dont really find that the model has something special....the colors themselves are very nicely painted indeed, but its kinda.......dull....i think this model needs some colors on the details that really make him stand out and that complement with the other colors.

Nice work, your a brave man basing him on a flying base that high!
"And now Im moving Sammael 12 inches that wa(Bunk! Crack)... Okay maybe not!"

Anyway this is one nice mini you got there! The book is nicly done. And I really love the sword!

 

real men have tall stands, that way you can get sympathy and get an extra inch so your in charge range with him ^_^

Some purple added to his mini sword, rope around his neck, the book and also the little gem in his sword.

small but glaring oversight: Dark Angels always have black hair.

 

Since when? Raven Guard yes, but most colour artwork of Dark Angels shows them with Brown hair.

 

Azrael has Brown/gray hair on the one by the eavy metal team, as does Belial, Naaman, Cypher, The Veteran Sgt from 3rd ed, All the scouts....

 

It's a mini, artistic licence is what counts I feel, thats why Belial has a Beard and my Sammeal is Blond ;)

Also, though I actually think you may be right on the black hair thing, I was also under the impression that he was not sammael(sp?) just using the model

 

Pyro-

Fluff wise the majority of DAs used to have dark hair (not black) when they were from Caliban but now they recruit from many worlds with many different cultures. In the DA codex the only model shown with black hair is the heav' metal version, everyone else has brown or even blonde. Painting it brown or blonde helps add some needed colour to the black armour.
k i guess you win. i just assumed that if the gene conditioning turned all Black Templars' hair the same colour, it would have a similar effect on the Dark Angels Chapter. i bow to your superior reasoning.

 

What a great attitude. It's nice to see somone admit defeat on a forum, god knows i've got enough things wrong before lol. Your reasoning makes sense tho. I guess we have to remember now and again that this is a fictional universe which favours fan participation. Hell, if you had a good enough reason you could argue that all imperial fists are bald!

 

Great work on Sam, love the mini and loving that purple!
