Garmr Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Hi brothers i want to use this topic as a blog of my army . I ordered some colors from the mail order to paint the power armor so i started to paint metals, eyes and little things . This is the w.i.p. of a Grey hunter http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/432/provacoloreridimensiona.jpg http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/432/provacoloreridimensiona.jpg Painted all with Codex Grey on a Space Wolves gray primer . i've started to do some things on the banner but i think i will put a different background with Morkai . Eyes(they are a little bit flat on the photo) , Eagle on the chest , wolves head are finished , i thing . As soon as i will have the colors to paint the power armor i will finish it . So what do you think? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175205-wip-of-my-army/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Guard Nostromo Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I like the pose and the painted effect on the metals is great. What colour are you going to do the base? I would consider getting rid of the mould lines on the bottom of the bolter/arm, particularly because he has his arm raised!

I know, that mould lines is painful! i tried to remove it but it's so damn hard to do it! I'm glad you like metals , it was the funniest thing to do ,just painted with scorched brown than painted with brazen brass washed with a mixture of blood red and regal blue and than highlighted with shining gold . By the way i don't know how i will paint the base ...maybe like city streets or martian ground ..

clanfield Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 i also like the pose i find under coat helps the paint spread and uses less ,lookig forward to seeing your progress:) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175205-wip-of-my-army/#findComment-2070863 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schertenleib Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Personally I like it as is. A shooting star could work though. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175205-wip-of-my-army/#findComment-2070957 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmr Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Personally I like it as is.

Wolf Guard Hengist Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Good work on the banner, that is one skill I am lacking in I have been trying to free hand some Morkai wolf symbols but with little success.

Spacefrisian Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I do hope you remove that ugly moldline on the first model you've posted. It kindoff ruins it, and i doubt you want that.

Garmr Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 I removed it . Just have some problem with the mold line under the bolter . Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/175205-wip-of-my-army/#findComment-2072256 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewi Sant Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I removed it . Just have some problem with the mold line under the bolter . Hmm, the best way I have found is to very gently scrape away the mould line with a sharp surgical scalpel. Its always done the trick for me.

Garmr Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share Posted August 7, 2009 Brothers sorry for the double post but i did some progress . http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/2442/ulrik018wip.jpg The head of the crozius is done and i'm quite satisfied of how it turned out . I finished the power armor , it's a little bit darker ,just highlighted things around the cross . About the head...i don't know if it needs a little highlight or is good now . Maybe this evening i'll do some works on arms , weapons ,back pack and maybe a little freehand on his shoulder of bran redmow's pack . C&C are welcome .

warboy Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 ulrik looks great! that base actually makes his static as hell pose work, it almost looks like he is leading the charge or something, kudos to you sir. on a side note, i thought all chaplains (and wolf priests) wore black armour? that said tho, if there is going to be a chapter that's gonna buck the trend and tell Guilliman to go fellate himself, it's gonna be us.

Thanks a lot , i'm glad you like Ulrik . Yeah Chaplains have black armors but i wanted to use a darker grey to make it rather than pure black .

Dewi Sant Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Nice work brother! IMO you need to change the colour of the power axe tho, there is not enough contrast between the rest of the model.

Vash113 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Interresting choice of fatigue colors. I also agree the power axe haft could use some more color, it looks too similar to the armor at the moment.

Hotspur Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Man, these guys look great! I especially like your rendition of Ulrik; the gray is an unusual, but awesome, color for a WP!
