Ransom Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k11/buddylangner/CSM/IMGP3609.jpg So I am starting a CSM army, these are two of my test marines for colour scheme. My brother plays Blood Ravens SM's so I figured Id mess with his head a little... (inverted the BR's colours) I know there a A LOT of touch ups to do, please note these are 100% WIP and not done yet. So far I like it, what do you think? About me: I've done very little painting (a dozen dark elf warrior/crossbows) but I pick things up quick. I entered a competition a couple of years ago with maybe a month or two of painting under my belt. Didn't place but found out I had several votes for third and even a vote for second! Haven't painted for about 2 years (oh by the way I have a two year old and a 7 month old see the connection?) Definitely enjoying getting back into the hobby. Last thing: Ideas for chapter badges?

dark_inquisitor Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 the marble-looking scheme def. looks better. looks like you need to water your paint down just a little more and use washes whenever possible. good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 looks nice but the paint is so thick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 the marble-looking scheme def. looks better. looks like you need to water your paint down just a little more and use washes whenever possible. good luck! looks nice but the paint is so thick *sigh* now this is frustrating to hear. I have watered my paints down (on a wet pallet even), used multiple thin layers, and many washes. Where exactly does it look thick? the whole model? certain spots? Where do I need more washes? thank you for your comments as they can only help me improve... *Edited for spelling* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 here, on the first guy the eye paint looks thick and the washes of the backpack are thick, at leat that is my opinion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
