Plague Angel Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Just a bit too monochrome for my tastes, to be honest. But it may look better on an actual model. Do you have one?

TrentL Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 If your doing something like that you should think about more than just your core troops. Do the scheme's for your Death Company, Sanguinary Priests, And Sanguinary Guards.

Plague Angel Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I figured out what's bugging me. It's that loin-cloth. A white loin-cloth against white armor makes it all look very "I forgot to paint the rest." Ditch it or throw a splash of color onto it—perhaps a red stripe against the white cloth to compliment the white stripe on the red helmet? The shoulder trim could benefit from some attention, too—I recommend the same bone color you're using on the eagle. That will keep the total number of colors used to a tasteful minimum, whilst still making the marine look less bland. Of course, this is all just my opinion, but you did ask. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199666-blood-saints/#findComment-2378410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboarder Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I would like to make to recomendations. The first and what I feel is the most important is to change the colour of the cloth to red to help add defenition to the model. Secondly have you thought about a bone white armour scheme instead of plain white?

Grey Mage Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Looks alot like the doom eagles... With a proper wash, some nice grit added, I think that could look really nice.

Midnightmare Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Respect from me for painting a white army!! Looks a pretty good scheme to me (not sure on the grey jump pack?) It has the added bonus that the various squad designation helmet colours will go with it depending if you go for them too :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199666-blood-saints/#findComment-2378626 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Agosto Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Looking good Ob. I know this is just a template but adding red detail to the loin cloth will add an imense ammout of depth to the model. Can't wait to see an example!

TrentL Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Hmm the Sanguinary Guard look like normal marine's with more "Bling", which I guess you can do for sure its your army but I think they should be something different than the normal Troops. But that's just me you can spend your $$ anyway you like i'm sure once we see some testor mini's done it will be different.

BLACK BLŒ FLY Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 It is a normal Marine in the picture as the Marine Painter does not feature armor for Sanguinary Guard. Anyways there will be lots of golden boys running around. If you have ever seen a nicely painted WS army you will know that a sharp clean white looks nice. 0b :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199666-blood-saints/#findComment-2378970 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad III Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I feel it's a bit too monochrome. It doesn't need much, but I feel like another couple of accents are needed. Maybe red trims, just something to break up the white in some more places. Not too sure how well a stripe will fit on SGs.... And further, I'm sure if you use the BA bitz you'll have lots of accented details to bring out stuff (all those awesome gems and things) What color are you gunna do the wings on everyone? White would be a bit much. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199666-blood-saints/#findComment-2379727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK BLŒ FLY Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 I am not sure about the wings as yet. Obviously not white. I have shaded the jump packs grey in the pictures of the assault Marine & Sanguinary Guard for a simple shadow effect. The jump packs will be painted stark white to directly tie in with the power armor... Too much red & I think they will start to look too much like civilized versions of the White Scars. I am thinking light grey wings or bone white might work & provide some better definition. As I said the Death Company will have the traditional appearance except they will have a red stripe running down their helmets. I am planning to use Astorath to lead the Death Company & he too will have deep black artificed armor to tie in. The Furioso Librarian will have stark white plated armor with a blue helmet to denote his rank. The Death Company dreadnaught will have deep black plated armor. I will be using the Venerable dreadnaught model from Forgeworld for both of my walkers. I am planning to use the limited edition Vanguard veteran sergeant (slightly converted) to represent the Sanguinary Priest, he will have the classic blood red armor to denote his rank... Might mount wings on his back, not sure yet though. One Stormraven (Omega Sword) will have a deep black chassis & wings while the other Stormraven (Alpha Sword) will have a stark white chassis & wings. Omega Sword carries Astorath, DC Marines & the DC dreadnaught while Alpha Sword will carry the priest, Sanguinary Guard & the Furioso Librarian. There will be two full squads of assault Marines with jump packs. That is pretty much the build for this army @ 1850 points. Thanks for all the feedback! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/199666-blood-saints/#findComment-2379857 Share on other sites More sharing options...
