NightHunters Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 Cheers guy, Almost there have test fitted the gunners back into their stations. The left gunner is coming fine, but the right, the right is proving a bit of an issue, paint looks fine to the naked eye, but terrible on camera so will have to go back to that and make some amends! so here we have the left waist: Will come back to you with the right waist as soon as he starts behaving! Cheers all! FTE Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220620-night-hunters-wip-pic-heavy/page/26/#findComment-3568235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Heinrich Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 As a former AG, this pleases me greatly. Keep up the good work NightHunters.

NightHunters Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 Cheers Heinrich, appreciated! Thought I would just go ahead and post right waist now, touched up a little but not yet perfect but what the hell! But first quick cabin shot, loads of space in there! And right waist: The good news with this is that with them finished-ish i can reassemble the hull and crack on with the externals. but question to the board, my airborne units have a yellow helmet stripe a la: now if i were to give these lads that same yellow stripe on their masks, cool or duck face?

Ammonius Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Perhaps make the whole mask yellow? The horizontal shape of the sides may De-Duckify the finished product?

Biohazard Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 They look great buddy. As for the yellow stripe question I would maybe avoid the whole mask being yellow as the shape could be very duck face. One way around it could be to paint the sides yellow and have a black stripe down the centre of the mask? Still shows the colour of their station but avoids duckface? Just spitballing mate.

Kierdale Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hmm, that's a difficult question. How about just doing yellow round the rim of the filter part of the mask? That would match where the yellow is on the helmeted marine.

NightHunters Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Cheers for the input guys, so we have votes for full mask, just grill, and side mask. God bless you all and your consistency! ;) Â So only one thing for it, trial and error. Yay. Â Will try and take pics even if too hideous for words!

ChromeZephyr Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I'd choose to leave them the way they are. Too easy to go duck-face. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220620-night-hunters-wip-pic-heavy/page/26/#findComment-3569223 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sockwithaticket Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Someone called for air support? Looking great. /your descending marine is freaking cool.Maybe stop the stripe at the helmet's 'brow', though I don't see much wrong with it as is.

NightHunters Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Bon Soir all! Chrome - too late brother, but i think it is not too bad! Tom - Thanks brother, I often fancy a capable photo editor and the requisite skills to but my lads into some awesome pictures, sadly both are lacking! batu - So do I! Sock - Cheers for the input chap, sadly that wouldn't work on the door gunners as the masks start below the brow although that does seem to be the preferred method for painting stripes! Zxyogi - Ha, cheers brother, most flattering! A little disturbing, but flattering none the less! And as we may have guessed from the above, a decision has been reached on the stripe. If you commit to striped helmets, commit, all the way. Have kept it very narrow as the grill on these scout masks is actually quite wide and am not displeased with the final results, bit washed out in the pics but looks good IRL. Also took the weekend to finish the pilot and gunner as well, have also started painting the exterior, desperately trying to colour match Zero-3's underside colour, which is proving a but tricky as I have no idea any more about how i did it last time That is all for today, Cheers all!

Biohazard Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The masks look great. Not how I'd pictures it at all, also loving the pilots this is gonna be a thing of beauty with all the effort you're putting into it.

sockwithaticket Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I LOVE this so much. Second pilot's visor is especially awesome, very vibrant. The yellow is deep enough to fit in with your colour scheme and it looks more like black and yellow = danger than part of a duck. I also feel like an for my previous reply because clearly you were referring to the gunners. Will make sure I read all future posts properly!.

NightHunters Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Evening all! deathspectersrg7: Ha, cheers buddy! batu: Cheers mate, when are we going to see some more of your work? It has been too long! Bio/Geektom/sockwithaticket: Chers guys! Yeah, happy that they don't look too much like daffy or indeed donald although that may be their name henceforth! Actually delighted the visor is getting some love as i thought Zero-3's jok actually had a better one Kierdale/Zxyogi : Cheers lads, your support always greatly appreciated! Now onto the most recent work, have rediscovered the underside colour'ish which is great, and also starting to block out the yellow. So coming along nicely! Sadly wont be able to get anymore done over the weekend but hey, some progress! Cheers all!

Biohazard Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 It's great to see the model as a whole rather than the teasers you've been throwing us for a while.
