Natanael Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 The Sang Guard looks good, tough I am not so sure about the half-blue wings. You got any clue to why you did it like that? B) Seems like there should either be blue in all the recesses or not at all, IMO. But hey, you're the master here. Love your work anyway ;) - Natanael Thanks, I think most people's reaction is they really like it or really dislike it. I wanted to do something similar to GW's but with the blue fade and I'm happy with the overall results. Well, then all is well =) It is your army after all. Keep up the good work. - Natanael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny Roxtar Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I dont know how you paint to this standard so quickly. Id still be on my first tactical squad trying to get this standard and failing too Come to think of it I still havent finished my first tactical squad from when the Bangles came out last year. Stunning work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razblood Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Landspeeder:http://www.design-vault.com/bloodangels/113landspeeder.jpg I have two criticisms.... 1. I think you may have one too many weapons on the speeder. 2. You are too good, I think I may even hate you a little bit for it ;) Fantastic work ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the rules but I just added it there to look cool, don't play the game though if I did I could remove it to be legal.

vharing Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Oh man, every time I see stuff you have painted it makes me want to never paint again because I dont think I can ever be that good, and it also so makes me want to buy an airbrush. That is some beautiful Blood Angels, Eggroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearden441 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 continue the amazing work, eggroll. These just keep getting better and better. I was wondering, what colors did you use for the green weapons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sehguhdier Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I really love your work. It makes me want to get an airbrush. The blending is just so smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggroll Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 continue the amazing work, eggroll. These just keep getting better and better. I was wondering, what colors did you use for the green weapons? Thanks. Off the top of my head I think it was goblin green on a black basecoat then to scorpion green and then 75/25 of scorpion green and sunburst yellow. Final edge highlight with white. I really love your work. It makes me want to get an airbrush. The blending is just so smooth. Thanks...I always recommend people get an airbrush. It takes some time and requires a hefty initial investment but the time you save later and quality of work you can get with it is totally worth it.

Thanks in advance and keep this beauty army coming Thanks. For the heavy bolters, it's just a boltgun metal basecoat which is then shaded using the airbrush. For shading I used turquoise ink for the blue green hue and then black ink for the darker shadows. Amazing Eggroll - great to check back in with you and your BA. Ive used the same banner empire general standard for my deathwing BB and hes just been posted if you want to compare! Great stuff. Bold colours. Fun to look at! I bet your oppenets marvel at your work! Thanks Ellis. Saw your standard and it looks very nice.

Grizzly_bear Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Eggroll......WOW....

eggroll Posted August 16, 2011 Author Share Posted August 16, 2011 Eggroll......WOW.... JUST how do you do it? 1st of a few questions.... how do you do that glow for the plasma weapons? the blue for the cape? and the weathering on your MM.... and finally the white? these are just fantastic sir. Thanks. Glow for plasma weapons is done with airbrush using enchanted blue on a white basecoat. Blue for cape was done by brush using mordian blue highlighted with enchanted and shadowed with 50/50 mix of mordian and black. Weathering for guns and metallics were all done with airbrush using just black ink or turquoise ink for colour tones. Not sure what parts you're referring to for the white?

ephrael Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Your work is inspirational to say the least. Every time you post an update I start building another Blood Angel marine. I then realize that mine will never look as good as yours and put them away. I don't know if this has been asked and answered before but have you considered doing some commission work? I for one would love to have at least a squad of marines painted by you and I can't be the only one thinking it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronKobra Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Dude your work is bad-ass! Looks amazing and you seem to knock it out very quickly too! Though one thing is sticking out to me, the green OSL on the eyes of some of the latest marines is projecting onto the surface above the eye. Wouldn't the ridge above the lens prevent the light bleeding onto the upper area and force the light to be reflected to the lower area under the eye?
