Vairocanum Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I lost a bet to my cousin the other day and had to give him my librarian. Im kinda low on money right now so I don’t really want to spend more money on a new librarian when I still have a lot of my army to finish buying. So I thought id kitbash one for now and see how things go. Im probably going to be using this one for quite a while so I want it to look nicer. Can anybody give me suggestions on what I can improve on to make it look better? I’d prefer suggestions on modeling it to look better instead of painting it cause I know my painting isn’t that good but don’t really have enough time to spend more time on it and practice. (and if you cant tell whats in his left hand, its supposed to be a fireball) http://s821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Vairocanum/DSC00390.jpg http://s821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Vairocanum/DSC00391.jpg http://s821.photobucket.com/albums/zz134/Vairocanum/DSC00392.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200889-ultramarines-librarian/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToberiousTheValiant Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 it doesnt look bad. librarians dont look much different than most marines in the first place. they take after Chaplins in my opinion. maybe add something like a book on his belt (made of some epoxy or green stuff). other than that most people will acknowledge what he is regardless.

ToberiousTheValiant Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 and to be honest the painting aint half bad. maybe a black wash couldnt hurt. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200889-ultramarines-librarian/#findComment-2393246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Priest Haelaeif Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 It is very cool. I love the pose and the look on his face, and the flames are very cool, too. I was thinking of doing something along those lines, too, but then just gave my librarian the 'casting hand' arm instead, but this looks cooler. Dayum.
