Pig Of Sparta Posted September 23, 2010 Author Share Posted September 23, 2010 Some great looking stuff there Astador, how do you find the time to work on so much stuff? Dante's axe does look fantastic, a nice sheen to the blade and the green fits perfectly with the pallete on the rest of the mini. 1000heathens, I'll have some step by step photos of how I painted the white flesh up later on tonight or first thing in the morning :D. Normish, that seal looks even better now you've tidied up the the rough edges. The 3 GW game systems at the bottom is a nice touch as is the 010.m03 at the top :). Once again thanks for taking the time to do that for us. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Normish Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 @Normish I see you've posted the finished logo. Do you mind if I try to tighten it up? I would like to get it inked as well and then I can mess with it in Photoshop/Illustrator. Let me know. Brother Anthony Go ahead! Do whatever you want, as long as I approve of it when your done (I'm sure I will). In fact, if I may recommend something, is that you make the text more standardized. No-one wants to read my handwriting, so some sort of typed font would be nice. Also, contrast, but I'm sure you plan that already. I look forward to seeing the final result.

Brother Anthony Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Cool. I agree with the lettering. I will take it into Illustrator and match up a bezer curve to the scroll work, so the type will flow. I will work on it tonight and hopefully have a inked version in a few days.

Pig Of Sparta Posted September 23, 2010 Author Share Posted September 23, 2010 After an quick couple of hours painting, a step by step guide to how I painted the white flesh on the Daemon Prince can be found here in the tutorials section of the PCA forum. I apologise for the quality of the photos in advance, but you can hopefully make out most of what I've done. cheers James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Well James I usually get bored with projects and start others. Plus these were fast simple conversions. And when I start painting something I generally finish it in one or two sittings! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Of Sparta Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 No bother 1000heathens, I posted a better 'finished' photo tonight if you fancy seeing how it looks with less blurryinness :cry:. Astador, I keep starting projects too, but I don't seem to be getting half as much painted as you do! I think I need to try harder...

Dosjetka Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 For those who were interested in my Dark Apostles, I'm painting up the first tomorrow and may be able to upload some pictures at the end of tomorrow ;) I'll definitely be having a look at those. :P Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Of Sparta Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 Aye, I'll be checking those out as well Skirax ^_^. KK, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with that FW stuff. They're both on my list of things to pick up from them. I get paid twice next month cause of the way that the dates fall so maybe, just maybe I'll be able to grab some stuff.... If anyone fancies a look, I've uploaded some photos of the Sanguinary Guard I've been painting tonight. You can find them here in the thread I created for them in the WIP forum, just scroll right down to the last post I made. I'm headed to bed now cause I'm shattered and all I can see is feathers.... cheers James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madwolf Shadowmane Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I've finally returned. My family and I have completed our move from Barstow to Virginia. Gonna be a while before I can paint again, I'm still putting the house together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Of Sparta Posted September 26, 2010 Author Share Posted September 26, 2010 Hey Tarkus, happy belated birthday! That'd be cool if you can spare the 48hr trial :P. If you PM me your gamertag as well then I can add you as a friend on LIVE. As for your spending money. If you fancy a something that'll give you a bit of a challenge then I'd recommend checking out Forge World's goodies. The new mk's of Space Marine armour are very nice as is the character conversion set and the Lufgt Huron kit. Also Khorne Lord Zhufor is a pretty cool mini as well. Or if you like shiny new stuff, some of the new Dark Eldar (I know it's Xenos, I apologise and brace for bolter shells) stuff looks quite tasty too. Hmmm... I guess I have'nt really helped much there. Are you more of a painter and modeller for painting and modelling's sake or are you wanting to put together an army just now? Either way, an army starter set might be the answer..... James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Well I haven't posted in awhile but since I have no Internet I have to do it from my phone which is a pain haha. But I did get some painting done which means I'll post pics from my phone later tonight! Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhornateKiller Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 hey tarkus, Do do the axe i used the eavy metal article out of White Dwarf number 364. Its actually quite simple to do just need to remember to make sure your brush strokes go the same way as the "grain" in metal all goes the same way. They dont tell you to do that in the article/ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Anthony Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 @Normish Going to post it up tonight and see what you think before I ink it. I'll also post some suggestions. till then, Brother Anthony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Anthony Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 this is what i have thus far. i did it friday night in about 45 mins before the wife got home form work. will be explain my suggestions tommorow, using buddys lab top and wife needs ice cream. just a little bit tighter. let me know what you think so far. brother anthony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortsonfire79 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 It looks much more clean. I like it :) This will be awesome :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Anthony Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks. Here are some of my suggestions. I'm not sure about all the scroll work. In regards to logos I think it should be kept simple. The Hell's Angels logo is a good example. When you see it you know what it is without having to read the top our bottom rockers. The BIH on the shield should be good enough and maybe the motto on the shield. I will try both ways and see what you guys think. I also left out the eagle claws holding the shield as it looked too much like US currency. All in all its a great design Normish and I can't wait to get it into the Mac. Those are my thoughts and as long as every one agrees with the meat of the design that I posted I will begin inking it this week. Tuesday nights I have Billards league so most likly Wends for the inks. Inking just like painting minis, just got to remember to breath.... Also I have no internet from home now, (checking at work, M-F) but can post pics from my wifes friends lab top on the weekends.
