Brother-Captain Sharp Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Looks good. I'm likign the depth you've added to the blue. Some suggestions: 1. Work on your picture taking. You'll want more than one light source, a uniform backdrop, and the correct white balance on your camera. There are plenty of great guides out there for mini taking. One that I would suggest is Taking photos of your minis. Good guide with a lot of great tips. 2. As far as I can see, your red is a bit bright. I'd try for a darker color closer to Red Gore. 3. I'd like to see some color on the bolter, particularly on the casing. Making it straight boltgun metal really takes a lot off the looks of the model. As a personal preference, I try not to use models that are well established and known as one thing (this guy is one of the most popular Sternguard) for rules of another model without conversion. Unless you do some stuff to spice this model up, a lot of people will not get that it's your captain without you notifying them.

Dravenguild Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I love it, but as has been mentioned maybe darken the crimson a bit, throw maybe a banner on his back to distinguish him as a captain, or foregoing that an iron halo on his backpack. But like I said before, beatiful and exquisitely painted.

Drudge Dreadnought Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I like the blue very much. And while the red my technically be the wrong shade, it still looks good.
