Doom Dice Roller Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 A hello to you fellas! I've been drawn back to the hobby a little bit since my main army's new codex (Nids) just was released, and the only thing I found time to spend on 40k-matters to satisfy the itching geek-part of my brain was posting some pictures of my relatively new Iron Warrios. They are my first non Nid models, and boy is metal hard to do! Normally I wouldn't bother making myself look silly posting these below average warriors into the halls of painting gods, but it's the least I can do before my occupied mind is sucked into studies again. So here they go, Irony Warriors! http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3439.jpg Light's too bright.... http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3445.jpg As usual, my pathetic attempt at source lighting again turned out to look something like some kind of strawberry candy rather than glowing hot plasma coils. http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3446.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3464.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3447.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3448.jpg As you can see, my metal is very blunt. http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3449.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3450.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3452.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3454.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3458-1.jpg Thank you Doghouse, you were one of the best. Paintscheme wise I opted for a less-is-more approach, but I feel now that I yet want to add some more hazard stripes. And although I tried to make them techy (you will have noticed the Iron Hands Bitz), I think it's also not yet enough. http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3459.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3460.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3461.jpg http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g118/DoomedDiceThrower/Games%20Workshop/Gothic%20IW/DSCI3462.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c-wrex Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I think they look pretty good. The armor even looks like it's iron. Very nice <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ash Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Very well done. You achieved the iron look so well. I also love the glowing of the plasma gun and his bionic eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayesh Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 i wouldnt overdo the hazard striping though, its good as it is subtle, i like it on the shoulder pad thats a good take onthehazard striping, ive seen some iron warriors where its gone too far with stripes and looks like a big bumblebee !!!

The Dean Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Oi Mate! Good to see you back again in the hobby if only for a short while. :) Nice Squad you got there. If you still want to add a bot more depth to the metal I would maybe try a very light wash with a brown ink. Might get rid of some of the "bluntness". Though I really don't mind the blunt look. Suits them just fine. Anyway, keep on the good work! Someday you might even have enogh for a game! *gasp* ! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
