Librarian


Recommended Posts

These are the pictures of my Librarian from The Immortals Chapter. He is my first ever attempt at highlighting, etc. and so he isn't that great a quality as what you can find on this site, but i am proud of him so i thought i'd show him off! I am sorry about the picture quality but it turns out a 5 M.P. mobile phone camera is the best camera in the house! :-S

Hi Immortal,

 

For a first attempt its brilliant. And the pictures work just fine for me, and are good pictures. I use an old 4mp kodak to take mine.

 

The flesh on the face is really good can't fault that, it draws draws the eye to it. As is the pattern on the force axe.

 

I would suggest for your next model to add a drop of water to the blue. Ultramarines blue i find is a very flat colour it really needs a darker blue to take that away, perhaps use a base of regal blue to start then layer the UM blue over that, if the paint is thinned with the water you can get a pretty decent blend.

 

And as said, some of the white areas would benefit from being a different colour. On the joins in the armour, cables coming from the helmet and on the right arm. Mabie try painting them black and highlighting them with codex grey, or black with a spot of white mixed in. Although a green cable might work too :)

 

The metal areas such as the end of the plasma pistol, the Aquilas and force axe would look good as gold or dark silver. Mix it up and have both gold and silver on the model, gold alone can look a bit too much.

 

Hope i have not been over critical. You have made a great start with this model and no doubt will continue to improve with every model you paint!
