sgtNACHO Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Is that yellow on the fore head supposed to be a Raptor's head? If so it looks alright, I can't say much as its probably better than mine. If it isn't... ... work on your straight lines. Nice battle damage, not too much that it overwhelms the mini. Your chest eagle is a litle too dull for my taste, it looks like it got a little dirty, of course maybe thats the look your going for :D Anyway its alright mini, and perfectly fine for tabletop, minus the lack of weapon or a right arm for that matter.

Rahveel Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 other than the yellow blob on his head, looks awesome. nice battle damage, and I like the eagle, makes him look more 'special opps'. the highlighting looks very nicely done too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papy carni Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Hurray !! some CC ;) So first the yellow supposed to be a company mark ( strange aspect due to battle damage) , like in Rogue trader, I use it because I wanted to have some ref to the "god old past" (my dwarf side :P ) and to brighten a bit the mini, wich would be really too dark otherwise IMO . It works well on the red scorpions for example :) And the chest is normally a bit more silver, but I didn't want it to be bright :) I wanted it dirty and dark, to be more discreet, they change colors from a bright blue and yellow to a dark Olive drab , that's not to wear a PIMP silver eagle :D ... Or a yellow stripes on head , I know But please more CC, I'll try to do better pics soon, those are really destroying the work on the mini :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 It looks really good. Once I expanded the image I could tell what the yellow stripe was. But from a distance it looks a bit off. I can't wait to see this guy completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vissah Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Some good looking Raptors you got there mate but the yellow stripe is not what they normally wear on there armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
