HJL Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I decided to paint up some scouts i had laying around for a while. After thinking about it I realised that they would be much better at their job if they had camos, i fight on a city board mostly, so here goes.

Tom O'Bedlam Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 hehe the glaucoma scouts *doesn't throw rocks in his glass house* really nice camo that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIMSA Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Pretty sweet, I do think camo works better with the lightest colour as the basecolour though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
son of nocturne Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hey HJL, your scouts are good, faces are coming along nicely, just keep at it buddy! Your profile pic makes me giggle every time i see it by the way, brilliant! S.O.N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HJL Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 lol thanks son, on these ones i tried dry brushing to pick out detail and then a light black wash to blend it all together a bit better, im not sure i like the results too much though.

kravi Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 How the heck did you get that flat grey on the bolters? I need/want to know! It's smooth as getout and works nicely. Looks like a mat plastic of sorts. --Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlmb_123 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 If I can give you a tip (I'm an asolutely awful painter myself, but there you go...), try to extend the pupils so that they touch the top and bottom of the eye. The shocked expression will fade away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
