magnefjord Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I honestly dont know what chapter I have painted but if it is not alredy taken I think I was gonna call them "Storm Raiders". As I said I have no clue on what I have painted, I simply got bored one evening and sat down and started painting, and this is what I came up whith. I had no plan what so ever on how how they were going to look like but this is what it turned out like: The lightning claws are a first-time try as I have never tryed this technique before but I think it tuned out pretty well. C&C are most welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnefjord Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Here is another one of my so far unknown chapter. Please let me know what you guys think. As always C&C are most welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulley Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Look a bit like Astral Claws - which is cool Nice tidy paint scheme so far. I'd say your possibly laying on the paint a tad bit heavy, but thats not really ruining the model at all. I'd love to see a bit of highlights going on - especially on the blue. Claws are very good though, for a first attempt its excellent - which is why I think you can bring the highlights to the rest of the model very easily.

Lemainus Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 The claws really did come out great, especially for a first try. If you want to add some depth and power to the blue, try getting a nice light drybrushing over the terminator's helmet, say equal parts blue and white. This would stick to the ridges and exposed high portions, leaving the rest uncolored. Hit it with a little dark ink and you have instant shading. Same can be done on the larger expanses of blue plate - it's quick and easy. If you want more control over the dispersion of color and such, you could try hard-line highlights and then a wash.

shan vener Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 i love the termie claws, they look like they're on fire. although it seems like a bad idea to stand on top of live artillary shell and firing a gun. the color scheme looks like that of the storm wardens but with the blue and silver reversed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GooseDaMoose Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 "Quick! Take cover behind those explosive shells!" :P But yeah it actually looks really good, and kinda like the Astral Claws. They did turn to Chaos but then they changed their colour scheme, so you can still field these guys as pre-Badab Astral Claws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashrog Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 That's the exact color scheme for my nephew's chapter, the Steel Crusaders. I think he got the name off of a Random Name Generator after 20 or 30 results of "Emperor's Mongooses" and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 nice job with the power claws, as for the astral claws didnt they turn to chaos, dont quote me on that tho only a speculation on my part so feel free to correct me lol They did, but one could easily paint and play an pre-excommunicate army of Astral Claws. Anyhow, the claws and the metallics are awesome, man. The only thing that gets me (and it may just be the fuzzy pics) is the blue. Maybe a wash and a highlight would help it out a bit. Pretty sweet though, man. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sweet though, man. Keep up the good work! Thanks, the technique on both the metal and the claws are a first-time try. You are correct on the blue, it could use a little highlight but I am not very good on highlighting blue so I am afraid I might ruin the whole model. Otherwise the blue is a basecoat of regal blue and then a drybrush with ultramarines blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
