The Angelus Sanctus Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Although the posting of painted minis to an open forum is to allow an individual to receive comments and criticism for their work, I will remind all that the purpose is to provide positive comments and criticism. Because no one model painter will be on the same level as another, it doesn't open the doors to leave negative criticism as to how one tackles a particular aspect of a model.

I can't agree with you more. If you give constructive criticicm. Do it in way that helps but not in way the says Im a douchebag. Im not a pro painter, Im just not. Thanks all of you for the commits and criticism on my army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogan Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Brother Isiah's innocent inquire is astute observation; it is indeed an incredible waste of a model to paint the glass parts in such a garish way. Even if you cannot paint the pilot well or don't have time, there is no excuse not to paint him one color and place him in the cockpit. BC. You sir are rude and an ass. Also I like more positive feedback and your feedback left little to desire. I find positive feedback does better for fostering good work in others. Sorry, but that's more than rude. Sure, Caliban was a little harsh here, but to overreact and call him names isn't going to help anyone. If he feels you're wasting a model by not painting the interior (which I personally agree with but wouldn't tell a stranger in a forum), let him have his opinion; if you dislike the comment, ignore it, but don't insult him. Remember: it's important you like your models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember: it's important you like your models. I agree, I may have over reacted and do apology for that. Its just some folks are a bit rash. I like my models and do try to paint them well. I like the look of my Storm Talon and not going to change how I paint them. I have ways painted canopies this way(I have a collection of US fighters the cockpits are painted has well). I do use the pilot bitz for other models and trade them if need be. thanks point it out to me Rogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redhorse Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I like your color scheme, its quite interesting. I quite enjoy purple space marines and the addition of the grey?( Or is it washed down silver) Helps to not make the purple over bearing. Also, don't get discouraged by any potentially disrespectful comments that may appear on the boards. What's important is that you like what you have accomplished. Solid job over all, I'm assuming this is your first Marine army? Possibly first 40k army? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first was the Dark Angels(RT and 2nd Ed), I lost that in a house fire along with eldar and orks. My second army was my Storm Dragons( aka Copper Tops). my third is what you see now, Angels of the Storm(DA successor chapter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhorse Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Very cool :) Any plans to make an Azrael stand in? Is the storm raven for some allies? Or home rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Gabriel Macleod Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 Very cool :) Any plans to make an Azrael stand in? Is the storm raven for some allies? Or home rules Plan on use it Apoc games only. I did order a Stormeagle this week. The fluff for my DIY chpater they use all and any space marine vehicles they can get there hands on. This mean asking the chapter for STC of armour or aircraft. This as lead to alliences the many chapters. They will sometimes field test new vehicles for other chapters, this how they get new STC vehicle and space crafts. My Chapter is a highly mobile Chapter. they field a lots of armour and APCs. They over 200 pieces of armour and APCs. As for Azze I planned to custom build him from varies part of other marines. as well Ezekel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrosh Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Looks really good. I don't use purple a lot myself but it looks good on your marines. I don't have anything to add that hasn't already been said, so keep up the good work. You have a really nice looking army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 40k Hobbiest Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Brother Sgt. Eli has an amazing color scheme. I really am a huge fan of it. The predator has a really nice color pattern as well. A whole army of this is going to look fantastic on the table, especially offset by some trees and other green terrain. Well done, my friend. For me, choosing a good color scheme is the most difficult part of making a new army. You've hit the nail on the head with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scheme on the tanks comes from the Red Scorpions paint style. So i can not credit for it. I do have pics of my army on the field. I may just post them soon. I can see your painting skills improve with each finished group. The scheme you have on your marines is looking really cool. Thanks you. I do like the color scheme and my using new painting skills. As always C&C is most welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
