frosty_man Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Right, thought it was about time I stopped looking at all you fantastic models and put up some of my own :wacko: At the moment I've only got some colour scheme tests done, but would like some opinion on them. Tactical Marine Assault Marine Terminator Scout Should have some actual test models up in the next few days, but the main models will be up some time after Christmas (damm 3 kids sucking up all the money ;) ) p.s never used a forum before so apologies if this all goes wrong :unsure: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/216780-eagle-knights/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Hiltraud Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Interesting look, similar to pre heresy world eaters... The only suggestion I have (and this is purely from my aesthetic POV) is to paint from the knee down to the soles the purlpe/blue colour. More like the Scout model. And I'm not digging the yellow elbow pad, I don't think it fits in with the scheme..But they are your models and at the end of the day do what you like :P Look forward to see your test models.

MagicMan Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Im not great at lists, but the colour scheme looks pretty sweet. Maybe painting the skulls that SM's are festooned with a different colour could help make them pop a little?

wise_crak Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 think the army list looks like fun (big dread fan!) but i dont know! im not a massive player (only played a handful of 5th ed.games) i found my tanks just had so much more staying power than my toops in both games again im no player so not sure if this is a good move but i would drop either the chaplin or the command squad i feel having both is just tooo much HQ besides those points it seems okay to me ^_^ Wisey ;) ps again only played handfuk of 5th ed games so im no expert :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/216780-eagle-knights/#findComment-2586096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Hiltraud Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 @frosty_man: Have you thought about using the helmet to distiguish the different companys? I suggest trying on a yellow helmet in the SM painter :( And I think the army list is good, well rounded. Army lists need to reflect how you play so play some games with the list(or part of) and chop and change from there :P Hope that helps.
