oricon Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Ive recently gotten back into the world of 40k and more precisely the Astartes, Angels of Redemption. I read this topic http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.p...5347&page=5 which helped me on my way but putting lipstick on a pig, well its still a pig. Anyways, heres what Ive managed to do so far, and I would really appreciate some direction with techniques and such as its been roughly, erm, 7 years since I last painted a minature and Im rather rusty. I also enjoy using green stuff, but the stuff makes me feel nauseous after a while of using it :) Ive got some plasti card & 2mm - 4mm plastic poles, circular & rectangular. Im looking to convert these guys, giving them beefyer armor, weapons, and having them look battle damaged if possible. http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1262.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1260-1.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1263.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1264.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1265.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1267.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1268.jpg http://i798.photobucket.com/albums/yy263/oricon73/DSC_1271.jpg And happy new year guys!

dynamicspartan Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 They look really good. I really like the purple cloths and robes. They seem to go well with the bone and green. The only thing that seems kinda weird to me is the yellow weapon casings. Other than that there great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaxter Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 The purple, white and green go really nicely together. I think this will look awesome when it is finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oricon Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 Cheers lads. Thats how I felt with the purple, bone and green, delicious, sinister colours. Obviously these astartes are all still wip, the yellow will eventually be yellow and black like the commanders chainlance in the first picture. Im wondering if I should put the 2 sargents with chainlances on rockyoutcrops aswell. I was also contemplating painting all the bolters black and yellow. Ive seen in it done in a sisters of battle comic and thought it looked pretty good. I just feel going with straight red/boltgun metal drybush is a bit unorigional.

dynamicspartan Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Ok nevermind what I said earlier than. The hazard strips will look really good with these guys as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Lysander Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Yes, in agreement here :P. Those stripes are great, and I love your purple- especially how it goes well with the other colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dejay Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I love these guys, they're pretty awesome, you don't see many halved colour schemes really. The purple robes are nice :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
