NogginBogrot Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hey first WIP thread here, just started painting some flesh tearers and would appreciate any comments you guys have. heres the tester i started with http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01300.jpg http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01301.jpg http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01302.jpg and i've started a dread, scultped the blood drop from greenstuff, not perfect but not too shabby for a first try. http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01303.jpg http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01304.jpg http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01305.jpg heres a normal marine http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01307.jpg http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01308.jpg and a death company one http://i936.photobucket.com/albums/ad203/lobrence/DSC01306.jpg i think i need a bit more highlighting on the black, especially the top edges. the helmet isn't started on the DC guy by the way.

Terminatorinhell Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 those normal marines are the DC ones? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196649-wip-flesh-tearers/#findComment-2343198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeffWolf Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 From what I can see, the marines look very sharp and well painted. Also, the application of paint is very good as it has been applied neatly and in the right places. The only thing I would say is use thinner paints, as the highlights look a little bit "bold" and perhaps take some pictures of the tester much like your 6th picture where it is unaffected by the light sourcing. Well done mate, it looks very professional and I'd be proud to have painted something that well. Also, before I forget - well done for getting the transfers right, they are an absolute pain in the proverbial backside!

bigmackey Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 love the dread how did you get the stealth effect on the top half ? there is something awsome about terms with lightning claws that gives me a fuzzy feeling inside i love the paint jobs Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196649-wip-flesh-tearers/#findComment-2344095 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeffWolf Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 you painted it? good job mate, seriously - looks very convincing. yeah it's slightly wonky but we all have to start somewhere! i'll be following this thread, keep painting!

Talhydras Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Very nice, love the Flesh Tearers' colour scheme. Your painting is crisp and clean, though (just my opinion) the red is still a little too bright for Flesh Tearers. I imagine them as a very dark and scary chapter, so, after highlighting and everything is done, maybe you want to give the red a final wash of thinned down Badab Black? Anyway, love those models, keep up the good work! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196649-wip-flesh-tearers/#findComment-2344249 Share on other sites More sharing options...
darth_giles Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Your freehand is much better than mine. The chapter icon on the terminator looks a hair small, though. You might want to scale it up so it fills more of the shoulder pad. Other than that it looks great.
