Cyrox Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I keep putting it off, but i decided to take the plunge and actually paint up some Imperial Fists. Can i just say - I have and always will hate Yellow lol Thought i'd start with my almost complete Devastator Sgt. Still waiting for his backpack to show up with my bits order, but he's nearly there. Need to paint inside the collar and tidy it up. http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/IFdevsgt3.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/IFdevsgt2.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/IFdevsgt4.jpg http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/IFdevsgt1.jpg You cant see properly but on the scroll on his Powerfist it says 'For Dorn' The undercoat was grainy - my fault as i sprayed on a cold day, but its not too bad. This pic with flash on, shows the uneven paintwork on the armour and the collar. And his mad hair. http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t107/ScoutSi/Miniatures/DSC_0002.jpg C&C always welcome Simon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201578-imperial-fists-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzy-xc Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 The paint has depth, the face looks good, the details are nice, overall its a great model, but the hair, the hair!

LOL i know, its controversial, but i'm bored of all the plastic heads being bald, apart from the odd one, so thought i'd be different :lol: I assume you mean his hair 'style', or is the colour bad? ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201578-imperial-fists-wip/#findComment-2402586 Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraRich Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 "In the dark future there is only war and the occasional blue rinse......" Joking aside its a solid paint job. Ive only done small areas of yellow so to make a figure look this good is hard.

Durus Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 The yellow on the backpack looks different than the rest of the armor. But other than that it's a nice miniature. Using the scheme of the 5th is a good choice as well. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/201578-imperial-fists-wip/#findComment-2417752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
