Klaxonsfan Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Hello all! After messing around with a 5-man CSM squad for abit, I realised would rather do Salamanders. Must be something to do with an excuse to paint flames on every model...:mellow: EDIT: Army list moved to relevant forum... Here is my first Tactical Marine painted: http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/Salamander1.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/Salamander2.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/Salamander3.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/Salamander4.jpg C&C would be most welcome on army list and pics.

Rob_Loken Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Like the flames really characterful. The only thing I can say is maybe go back and touch up the exhausts on the back packs. he looks good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiny Norman Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Sorry to pick holes in your list, but if you are using the new Marine Codex you can't take 6 man Tactical Squads with special or heavy weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g0atmilk Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 wow very nice flames! they look like they glow! the only thing is that the left arm looks a bit weird, like hes got lighter green on him, but it might just be the pics. awesome salamanders tho!

Metal Fingered Villain Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 You've got a good start here just remember, thinning down your paint even with just water, will always give a smoother finish. I like the idea of flames completely covering one arm and a boot etc... Sometimes sallies become a bit too..green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathar the great Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I'll reply to you if you reply to some thread of mine B) I like the way you paint the flames, I just experimented with painting flames and yours look much better. I am not so sure about painting on the sprue. You'll just have more work later repainting the parts you could not get to before... just my thought...

Klaxonsfan Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Yes, i realised this after painting all 5 sets of arms. So for future models il just glue the arms on without the Bolter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaxonsfan Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 So whilst painting my Tactical Marines, I decided to break up the repetition by building my first Salamander Sternguard... http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/DSC01012.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/DSC01013.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/DSC01014.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/DSC01015.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/DSC01016.jpg http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z268/Dheraj/DSC01017.jpg Im going to mode some scales onto the cloak wiht greenstuff.

cathar the great Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I like your idea with the legs, but they look a bit too long for the rest of the body. Have you thought about using Terminator arms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
