Ole Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Your models are pretty neatly painted, no doubt. Looks like you have some good, solid colours on your marines. However, let me offer you some constructive criticism. Some of your colours come off as a little flat, and that is easily fixed. If you look into shading and highlighting (there are A LOT of tutorials around the net and here especially), your marines will improve immensely. You can even get some washes that will shade your models instantly. Also, some of your paints seem a bit too thick some places. You should thin your paints so that they flow much easier over your models. And if they don't cover, give it another thin layer. Also, a tip for doing metal. First, paint it black, let it dry, then drybrush a metal colour over. It will look very realistic. Be sure to post more of your stuff when it's done!

Twin .44 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 in my opinion they do seem kind of "animated" in the sense there isn't much depth to them and kind of bright. Don't take it the wrong way, because they aren't bad at all, but take a look at some tutorials and give them a shot. I just recently did my best model (you saw the Templar) to date because of a quick short beginner tutorial (with my own splash of style on it) so they are truly invaluable tools for even seasoned painters. I can't wait to watch painting improve upon you Captain Kantor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrible_Trygon Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 It is a good start, but I don't really think the robes are that Ultramariney. Ultramarines are noted for two things: Generic and Bling. Robes tend to be more a Dark Angels thing, and to me their just blue Dark Angels. Right now I would also look into washes. Instant shading would bring some depth to the models and be a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
