Kizzdougs Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 GREAT job on the SGuard. If i could be so bold as to suggest one more highlight stage on the Sanguinor, at lest on the the torso and legs. :P I realise you have gone for a more conservative and realistic affect with your highlights (wich looks truly amazing). :D This technique is really good for the SGuard but IMHO the Sanguinor needs further highlights, especially because of the open pose.

spikyjames Posted May 15, 2010 Author Share Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks for all the replies guys. Glad you all like the way the army's coming along. The Sanguinor may get another highlight or 2. Well i've got the first guy from the second squad finished. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Angels%20Sanguine/201.jpg This squad will all have Death Masks. cheers james Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200789-sanguinary-guard/page/2/#findComment-2400703 Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikyjames Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 Finished another 2 tonight http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Angels%20Sanguine/204.jpg Which means the 2nd squad is complete http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Angels%20Sanguine/205.jpg This means there's only 8 minis to go for the rest of the army ;) James Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200789-sanguinary-guard/page/2/#findComment-2401980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Pugnax Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 The second squad is just as impressive as the first. The clean and defined look they have really looks great. Their glaives add a good balance to the color scheme; the darker, understated color and subtle electrical pattern keeps my eye from getting lost in the gold and white. I think it brings out your shading nicely. And, going back a few models, I have to say that your style translates well to the red/white scheme of the sang priest, too. It's a jaw-dropping model. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of your army.

Turel Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Brother Shinigami, the gold recipe was posted on the first page! The gold was done this way Basecoat- Tin bitz 1st layer- shining gold leaving tinbitz in the recess's 1st wash- gryphonne sepia 2nd wash- devlan mud 1st highlight- burnished gold 2nd highlight- 1/1 burnished gold/mithril silver throughout the whole process the gold was kept well watered down to help achieve a smoother coat. The models are beautiful. I like the simple Dante conversion, the sanguinary priests... Well I love all of it! - Turel.

jah-joshua Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 nice, sloid, work here, mate... i always enjoy seeing your work, as it's so cool to see an army in all its glory... it goes to show that a set of minis don't have to be taken all the way up to competition quality to look great... there is something powerful in a simple, clean, paint scheme when you look at 20 guys all lined up together... you've got me itching to paint an army;)... keep up the good work... cheers jah Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200789-sanguinary-guard/page/2/#findComment-2409632 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turel Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Just beautiful. I love a consistent looking army like this. You should do a display board or something for them. it goes to show that a set of minis don't have to be taken all the way up to competition quality to look great... What the heck does competition quality look like, if it isn't this? o.O - Turel.

Justicar Valius Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I think he means Golden daemon, in which case look around somewhere on the wip board for some guys brother in a dread diorama. This is the awseomest you can get without spending more than 15 hours on each model.

Turel Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Ah yes of course. For some reason Golden Daemon didn't enter my head at all, it's all this sunlight we've been having! ... Unless James let's us know that he did indeed spend 15 hours per model, in which case you'll be eating your words :D - Turel.
