Zhukov Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Nice, like 'em too! The weapon looks like the mace from the Dark Angel Veteran set, but not sure. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/172528-assault-captain/#findComment-2039099 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpudWhitman Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Superb. Interesting approach with adding the contrasting green to the flexible areas of the power armour. Did you modify the jump pack with hoses from some meltaguns? Now that you're back at it with the hobby, please don't hesitate to show us more.

Messanger of Death Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I really like him actually...quick question though. The battle damage on the left greave, how did you do it? Ive been trying to get battle damage in that sort of area and it just lacks that look that yours have. Got a feeling your doing a glaze or wash of brown onto boltgun metal but I'm just not too sure what colours and stages.

Acebaur Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 really nice job. That mace is from the DA sprue, I have one myself :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/172528-assault-captain/#findComment-2039850 Share on other sites More sharing options...

greeble Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 thanks for the comments all where did you get the wepon? is a black templar bit? it is infact a mace from the DA sprue. Did you modify the jump pack with hoses from some meltaguns? the hoses are guitar wire they dont bend very well, but if you heat them up on a gas cooker hob or a blow torch and quench them in water they then become very flexable and bend nicely Now that you're back at it with the hobby, please don't hesitate to show us more. i've posted a few bits onhere and have an account on amobunker with a project log of various painted bits The battle damage on the left greave, how did you do it? Ive been trying to get battle damage in that sort of area and it just lacks that look that yours have. Got a feeling your doing a glaze or wash of brown onto boltgun metal but I'm just not too sure what colours and stages. boltgun metal then a wash of brown ink, add a very thined wash of black, i then lightly dry brushed chainmail over the rivets etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/172528-assault-captain/#findComment-2040048 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain ChonkE Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Wow! Awesome model! Love the battle damage on the shield and the white winged breastplate. Different and very very cool looking.

Brother Loring Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 The base is perfect, banner looks great and although he looks a bit static there is something about him that looks as if he's about to explode into righteous fury! I really like the blue washed metal, looks a bit like oxidised copper (2+, not 3+ for the sticklers among you), really nice effect. Always keen to see more!
