starhawks Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 hey so I have a chaos marine army going, and I have the name narrowed down to warp hawks or shadow hawks, which do you prefer? http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00422.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00421.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00420.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00419.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00418.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00417.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t91/valos11/DSC00416.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible_Trygon Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Shadow Hawks is the name of a marine army on Warseer, so I'd go Warp Hawks as I haven't heard that anywhere. Plus it sounds more 'Chaosy'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancient god Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Warp Hawks! What colour do you use for the highlights on the teal? On the pictures, the tone looks to be a slight bit off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starhawks Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 yes I know this is a common excuse, but the pictures do make the highlighting look bad...I use snot green mixed progressively into the base color (hawk turquoise) and then straight snot green, it looks a lot better in person but I'm forced to use the flash on my camera and it makes this color look particularly odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancient god Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 If it's only the pictures, it's fine. But from personal experience, I'd presume that it's also visible IRL, less so than on the pics but still. You could mix white into your second-to-last mix instead of going with pure Snot Green for the final highlight. That should keep the highlight within the right spectrum of colour, making it look a bit more natural. Other than that minor nitpick, really cool scheme and you're pulling it off well!

mitchell93 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Definatley warp hawks sounds so much more chaosy The paint scheme is great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Aristeo Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Based on your avatar, I thought this might be an alternative color scheme for the Alpha Legion. That would be a fine name for your marines! ;) But seriously, I think Warp Hawks is a great name and much better than Shadow Hawks. Fantastic job on painting these! I look forward to seeing more.
