sword brethren Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 hello, i usually go straight to hall of honour but ina desperate attempt to improve my painting skills i have come here, i custom built an inquisitor for a friend as he wanted one and i had spare parts... well marine bitz and shadow suns body, he is happy with it i just wanted some tip and what people think the colour scheme should be as we are undecided. here it is its a bit scruffy at the moment, i will be fileing it down soon what colours, any tips for those colours? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlauG Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Wow, the disparate parts all come together really nicely, though the Tau-ankles are still a bit skinny. Inquisitors tend to be brooding colours, deep dark reds, darker metals or black are common... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 hmmm, yeah the parts are just thrown together really but my friend really wanted the alien technology loving inquisitor looking guy, you know the ones, all crazy about the disgusting rubbish xenos make, makes me sick :) thanks for the colour ideas, do you think he needs a cape or cloak or something or shall i leave bear armour?

GlauG Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 IMHO a cape might be a bit much with the wings as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heru Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 You need to build up the ankles with some greenstuff, they really don't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sword brethren Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 ok ankles built up, right size? ive also painted the backpack and the hammer and other little details here and there. i think the face has come out well, this is the first time ive bosh washed and highlighted properlly so im quite pleased so far, tell me what you think, any tip or ideas? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonkin Arenis Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 i'm adamant right now that the Stormbolter on his left arm looks too heavy for him to hold up... maybe add a slightly smaller one? :) nice model and nice pait-job so far ;) Arenis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlauG Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Ankles are looking a lot better IMHO. Paint seems good, though the gold's a bit thick maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 thansk for the comments, regarding the storm bolter, i love that pose so we'll assume he has bionic that can lift it :) a lil update, just put some paint on the armour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sword brethren Posted June 22, 2009 Author Share Posted June 22, 2009 where is that thunder hammer from? i have seen them just dont know where they are from master of the chapter set, not sure which master though. another update, I'm bored and there isnt anybody coming out so *shrugs* back to work :lol: can anybody give me highlighting tips or suggest painting improvments (other than the gold being thick) thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutteman Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hmm, well this is purely my own personal taste (translation, ignore this unless it was already bugging you) but he seems a bit light, but thats just me, I suppose it would help the Inq's PR if they appeared as knights in shining armour (you know, offset the planet destroying that no one knows about :P ) Other than that (again, personal taste) he looks great, I think the Storm Bolter looks fine, really like the bionic face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 The pieces come together very nice, paintjob's also good. I don't like metal colors much myself, but they work well on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
