Masito Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 first post here on this forum, so let me say hello to everyone first and foremost =) secondly, as the title states i am working on a Blood Angel terminator captain - I recently received a bunch of SM stuff from my older cousin, who had started collecting a Blood Angels army but never got around to finishing it... i will revamp this army with a few of my own twist, and i will also be converting/adding stuff on every marine and/or vehicle in the army (hopefully hehe), but to start off i give you a terminator captain. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0109.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0111.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0112.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0113.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0114.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0115.jpg there he is, ready to be primed and painted (since it's been 7-8 years, give or take, since i last fiddled around with this awesome hobby, i want to practice and brush up my painting skills before painting my more "special" models so i might take a while to complete this one) i used Grey Stuff, bits and plasticard for the mini, cork and sand for the base please, C&C's are very welcome! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lestat Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Welcome to B&C and to the Chapter Brother. Some nice, simple conversion work you have done there - I'm suitably impressed. Can we get a close up of the right shoulder - I'd love to see what the detail is there. It kind of looks like a skull. Anyway, a nice start there.

Masito Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 thank you very much brother! glad to be here indeed! thanks for the kind words! some snapshots of the right shoulderpad: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/100_0059.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/100_0060-1.jpg my camera cannot take closer pictures than this without blurring, even with the macro-flower thing turned on. hope you can see it better now though! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingsOfTheFalcon Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Great start, one crit though, the chaos arrow on the scabbard could do with coming off, a flat file would make short work of it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The skull looks like youve got some good sculpting skills there. To get a real smooth finish, put some vaseline on the end of your sculpting tool. It acts as a lubricant and allows a better finish.

Masito Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 so yeah i finished painting this bad boy of a model, and here he is. His name is Razel, and is the terminator captain of my Blood Angels - My Blood Angels, however, will not be "regular" Blood Angels and I am in the process of writing up some background fluff for them, which I think will be done very soon... Until then, enjoy Mr. Razel: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0106.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0107.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0108.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0109_2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0110.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0111_2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0112_2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/Yenlung/101_0113_2.jpg This is my first paint job on a mini after a 7 year hiatus from the hobby - but I'm back now <_< C&C's are very very welcome, I hope you enjoy!

Rob_Loken Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Wow, how did you achieve the red? And I like the green for the Storm Bolter, and that Power Sword looks great aswell. Kudos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masito Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Hello there Brother Duncs! thanks for the nice comment! about the red it's as following (keep in mind that all mixes of paint and such are thinned down with a bit of water to increase smoothness of the layers) <_< 1. basecoat of snakebite leather 2. a layer of red gore (wait for it to dry and hit it up again with red gore to get a more smooth finish) 3. a mix of blood red and red gore to create the blending effect around the edges (rather thick 'highlight' if you may) 4. a 50/50 mix of blood red and blazing orange to finish up on the 'highlights' added in the previous step and voila :P hope it helps :) gives a nice, darker and warmer red than the usual Blood Angels tend to have in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dood515 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Greystuff on your first post is a good way to get my interest and the amazing way you got the glow from the power points on the blade is a great way to keep it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
