Deathwatch Tactical Marine

Recommended Posts

I haven't painted in about 7 years or so, since I finished my Necron army. This is my comeback miniature, who represents my Ultramarines character in our Deathwatch RPG. He doesn't have a storm bolter yet ingame, but I'm thinking positive. I still think it looks better to the naked eye than on camera, but since inviting everyone over to look at it in person isn't practical, this will have to do.

Blame that on my bad photography... under regular light with the naked eye, the highlighting is a lot more subdued. Although I personally very much prefer blue highlights on black, especially for Deathwatch... I tried another model with grey highlighting as a test, and the overall effect just came out very dull.

Deathwatch is a very fun game, definitely not for people new to 40K, but if you know the setting it is a blast. What can compare to RPing a space marine at the peak of his combat prowess?

 

I used Chaos Black, Marine Dark Blue (from a 20 yr. old paint pot; Mordian Blue with a little black is probably the closest current colour), then thinned Marine Dark Blue/Fortress Grey and very thin Fortress Grey for final highlights.
