Kuchinawa Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hey guys. I know it's been a forever and a half since I've posted, but I finally finished a painting this guy. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0012.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0013.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0014.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0016.jpg So does he look good or just meh? I will admit I jumped the gun a bit, as right now he has grass on the base, but I'm hoping you review the model itself not really the base (Oh and yes, I was able to get the fabled helmet for this guy =D that's why I want him to look good) EDIT if it looks bad feel free to say so, but please add what you think makes it looks bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Very nice work bud :D Always loved this model, and was always disapointed they never did more. And in plastic =P But you have really caught the essence of the figure :) the only point I'd make would be about the base. But as you have already stated your still working on that, I wont say anything except.. Keep up the awesome work and I look forward to more :) CTK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuchinawa Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yaaaay a comment, I was wondering if you guys all thought it was crap and didn't have the heart to tell me. But thanks a lot. I know it's not fantastic, but I like it, and I'm working on grass right now, and a wash for the sand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlamingDeth Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Model looks nice! He has a rather unfortunate choice of names though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Emperor's Champion Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yea....the name REALLY needs to be changed. REALLY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Lysander Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 You could compliment the paintjob on the model as well ;). I like the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 ah poor oedipus, blinded by pride (and literally) and a mother lover. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattison Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Well someone has to be the unlucky one as well. I actually like the name choice. Maybe he's just got a swollen leg and not at all in love with his mom. ;) I like what I see so far by the way, but it would be nice to see bigger pictures in better lights please? ;) Do you also paint Dark Crusaders?

CosmicCreations Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Very nice from what I can see, Can we also get a scale shot? I was going to buy this model the other week but didn't want to until I saw how big he actually is, and also how much variation can you create? Are there a lot of parts? or just some small things you can change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuchinawa Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0018.jpghttp://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0019.jpghttp://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0020.jpghttp://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj100/Kuchinawa212/IMG_0021.jpg Eh I decided on the name because I thought that his ankle was going to break since all the weight would be on that one foot, and since it means "Pierced ankles" or something like that, that's how it came to be. (and I was reading the play at the time) I added a scale shot to a "normal" mini and then Eisenhorn I painted a while back. Oh he was a fun build. Not a lot of play in him. So if your a master modeler you can change him up a bit. but otherwise he's in that running pose. So small changes like head and some arm and hand movement, but not really leg and waist. Oh and Pattison, I used to paint Dark Crusaders, then got bored with just black and red, black and red, and more black and red. But they are nice when you see a lot of them gathered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattison Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 That's what I'm talking about, reaally niice. Congrats! Well regarding the Dark Crusaders... maybe black and red is a simple colour scheme, but I've got 2 comments to it: 1) simple things are the hardest to do right (and the ones that deserve real perfection) 2) endurance and strong will is the key to miniature painting & to obtain 1) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuchinawa Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Okay, well if you guys think it's good (save the name) then I'm happy with it =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forgeman Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Very nice. Good to see a Genesis Chapter marine for a change. You should post up over on the Conclave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
