Mudpuppet Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Hey all, Well after the libby was completed i moved onto my honour guard, hope you enjoy the pics, the banner is my first attempt at freehand and is far from finished. Also need to think of a name for the blood champ. http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv163/fuzzyspuz87/WH/BA/DSCF0111.jpg http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv163/fuzzyspuz87/WH/BA/DSCF0112.jpg http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv163/fuzzyspuz87/WH/BA/DSCF0113.jpg http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv163/fuzzyspuz87/WH/BA/DSCF0115.jpg http://i680.photobucket.com/albums/vv163/fuzzyspuz87/WH/BA/DSCF0116.jpg Working on the Sang Novitiate now, more pics to come.

WarpWalker Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Great Work Mudpuppet! The lines between the colors are so clean and straight. Nice work on the banner too.

Spagunk Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 The painting is awesome. My only beef is that the helmet for your blood champion has a very noticeable mould line.

Mudpuppet Posted September 20, 2010 Author Share Posted September 20, 2010 The painting is awesome. My only beef is that the helmet for your blood champion has a very noticeable mould line. HAHA! I know, its really iritating too, i took the time to shave them all off, but somehow the painting has brought it all back out again. i think its the perfect combo of painting and the angle and camera really makes it stand out, it doesnt look nearly that bad on the model. Thanks for the kind comments you two. Mudpuppet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211581-honour-guard-wip/#findComment-2517254 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redfinger Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I really really really like the two-tone look, I have been stewing on how to paint my HG. I may swipe this for myself. Anyway, do you prime your models before you paint them? It may help you notice some of those pesky mold lines a bit better.

Mudpuppet Posted September 22, 2010 Author Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi Ashton, I do prime them yes, i usually dont have a problem with mould lines as i scrape em off. I dont know how i messed up the blood champ helmet, i must have missed it some how. And usually the jump packs are so poorly made its very hard to get them looking flush. I do my best though. Im glad i have inspired you on the two tone front :lol: i always liked it especialy the angels sanguine look. But never had the guts to try it, but im glad i did it now. Hope it goes well for you, Mudpuppet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211581-honour-guard-wip/#findComment-2518609 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leardinal Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 ;) These are amazing. I like solid colors, but that is because the only version I had seen before where purple-green pre heresy (Emperor's Children? Can't remember right now,) but these are leagues ahead of those. edit: Unfortunately just noticed mold line on melta man's foot Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211581-honour-guard-wip/#findComment-2519757 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK BLΠFLY Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I love how you executed the color scheme. To me it is quite striking and has a hard edge. ;) 0b :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211581-honour-guard-wip/#findComment-2519779 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarpWalker Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Don't feel bad about the jump packs, Mudpuppet. Some of mine don't alligne 100% ether. I bought an entire box of assault marines right from GW that all the sprues were off by 1/16 (1.5 millimeters). It was unusable!

I bought an entire box of assault marines right from GW that all the sprues were off by 1/16 (1.5 millimeters). It was unusable! Whoa that is bad! Did you go and get your money back? I really need to go get some small modelling files, lots of comments seem to be about mould lines. Wow thanks Leardinal, that is always nice to hear someone is impressed. Thanks 0b as well for the kind words. Just one more guy to go and the banner to finish now. Phew.

WarpWalker Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 O yeah, they were real good about it. But wouldn't you know the very next box of assault marines had bad mold line issues too. But with a little elbow grease I fixed 'em. :jaw: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211581-honour-guard-wip/#findComment-2521751 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudpuppet Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Hi all, finally finished my first freehand banner to finish off my honour guard squad.

igotsmeakabob!! Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 You're killing me, man.

If your lookin blod agely names for the champ look at the whos who thread as theres quite a few there i aint really seen before, and if you know of any other names for it feel free to add and il add them in too.. Hey thanks bro Nathan, yeah i had a look through that thread yesterday, good ideas. I named him "Calec" a while ago though. You're killing me, man. These look great and you're just making it all the more tempting to backpedal on all my work and go Angels Sanguine. LOL! Do it... Do it!!... Hehe, cheers man, the reason i went with angels sanguine is i love their fluff that they never show their faces and are one of the most noble and least flesh tearer like of the chapters. (Sorry FT lovers) Great free hand work! I love it! Thank you kindly good sir. I feel i should point out that the three skulls at the top are transfers not my work. Im rubbish at doing skulls freehand so i had to use transfers.

bulley Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 banner is great, really simple but majorly effective. The whole squad is very good, simple tones, not over complicated and very clean, comes off excellently.
