sword brethren Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 hello B&Cers i thought i might pop this up for some feedback High Marshall Ansgar Von Faust (Ansgar- Godspear Faust - Fist in german) thanks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213937-high-marshall-ansgar/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Normish Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I love it! He looks so serious and slightly bored... but it really exudes the Medieval European feel, sort of High Middle-Ages, with a little Teutonic and Holy Roman empire thrown in. So, what do you play him as? One criticism: his head looks a little high up. Shouldn't his chin be behind the collar?

Pizzasemmel Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 One criticism: his head looks a little high up. Shouldn't his chin be behind the collar? Since this is resign cast (by the one and only scibor) it would have been quite tedious to fix that...and its not that bad anyways imho Its a really awesome miniature, the metall looks pretty nice, also like the conversion with the second powerfist (also from scibor?) Only problem i see is the face, looks a bit...ehm..dead to me^^ (or undead) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213937-high-marshall-ansgar/#findComment-2546777 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Validar Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I don't like the face, really, the colour is very unnatural and the chainmail (?) just looks slightly out of place That said I think the army is beautiful, how did you make it? I suppose your Marines are something templar-ish with the whole plate armor theme?

Holy Dung Orbs? As for the face, you could try highlighting it with a light flesh tone, perhaps even some drybrushing?

Terminatorinhell Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I think adding eyes will truly finish the model. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213937-high-marshall-ansgar/#findComment-2547873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad-Sam Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Maybe he is praying with his eyes closed? -Bad-Sam- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213937-high-marshall-ansgar/#findComment-2548246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Validar Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 his pose does not imply prayer. Great colour of the skin now. I agree on the eyes thing, but otherwise excellent model.

Terminatorinhell Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 If you are worried about messing up the pupils I HIGHLY recoomend gettinging a .05-.005 micron pen, it helps me a ton when I need to dot the eyes of my models.
