Tzen Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Nah he's finished. I'd never use the guy if I'm honest, it just didn't feel right to have him all under coated and not painted! I finished this guys recently: http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/wfbsorc1.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/wfbsorc2.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/wfbsorc3.jpg And on a more power armoured note I then moved on to Brother Artemis. Or well, that model but painted in Ultramarine colours: http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/artemis2.jpg Killing time now till Space Marine (the game) comes out, and uni starts.

Tzen Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 With my time off over xmas, I've started on Ahriman. Early days yet, and cos of the light the picture isn't great. Just thought I'd pop a post down! Very very very tempted to paint his robes blue, but his armour red. http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/ahriman1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219575-tzens-word-bearers/page/6/#findComment-2947402 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iacton Qruze Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 First I've seen of this thread. You've got a really nice army there. I've always loved Word Bearers, and look forward to dusting mine off in 6th edition.

Alpha PTP Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I would try and change the color of either the robe or the armor so they don't mix together like they are right now. You could make one of them lighter, darker, more purple, ect. It looks fantastic otherwise.

tyrannosaurus Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Stunning painting with that same smooth style you had on the word bearers, very very nice ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219575-tzens-word-bearers/page/6/#findComment-3028943 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Tzens back! Superb. Ahriman is looking good although I was kinda hoping you were gonna go with the blue robes/red armour. The blue does look great though. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219575-tzens-word-bearers/page/6/#findComment-3029007 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share Posted March 31, 2012 Thanks guys! Glad you like it! :D I don't actually mind the paint job on it, but I really want to get him in finecast and paint him differently. With his armour red and his robes blue. I still think Ahriman is a bit of a traditional Thousand Son at heart, and I'm hoping in the next Chaos Codex to have a small force of the rubric marines following him about! His red armour showing his allegiance to the the chapter etc etc. Plus this model is so old now, and it was a particularly decent cast of him. Would love to get a nicely detailed resin cast! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219575-tzens-word-bearers/page/6/#findComment-3029346 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Just popped these in the work in progress thread for feedback, but it's technically a "finished" mini. http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/wbbd1.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/wbbd3.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/wbbd2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/219575-tzens-word-bearers/page/6/#findComment-3031375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Great model ;) By the way, you say that you do a 1:1 mix of Mechrite Red and Blazing Orange as a highlight, but how do you apply it? As an edge highlight? Or maybe as a diluted layer, leaving the pure MR in the deeper parts of the armour?

Tzen Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 It' all edge highlights mostly. Nothing special about em or anything. I now and then use a glaze over the edges to bring out the extreme highlights on the head or shoulder. Standard stuff!
