Sandalphon Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Since there's a lot of DW craziness going on at the moment i thought i'd share my free-hand chapter badge method with you all. Funnily enough i only just realised i forgot to 'break' my DW sword :lol: , but the concept is still sound~! i guess that makes a step 7 for DW ;) For the following guide I used a citadel fine detail brush and a roughly 75/25 red gore/ water mix Finshed product (sans break :) ) Same technique with skull white for a DA Icon I hope you find this useful!

The Shadow Guard Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I am sure many will find it extremely useful, Sandalphon... that is a great example of how what appears to be a complicated technique can be broken down in to steps that even i could possibly render... Great wrok and thanks!:) Wouldn't mind nicking it for the Fortress site when i get around to updating... :P SG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225782-freehand-dw-da-icons-tutorial/#findComment-2702732 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadDoc Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Nice, simple, yet effective. Good job. Do you have any pics of the Terminator fully finished (i.e. with the break in the DW symbol)?

Brother-Captain Sharp Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 The only problem I see is that both the Deathwing symbol and the Dark Angles symbol have 4 feathers, not 5. However, that is a small nitpick in a useful guide.

However, that is a small nitpick in a useful guide. Ah, but the Forgeworld Deathwing Shoulder pads have about 7-8 wings on each side.... I think the number is perhaps poetically increasable !! :) SG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225782-freehand-dw-da-icons-tutorial/#findComment-2703699 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandalphon Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 Sg by all means add it to the fortress, i would be honoured... but maybe i should finish one and add the break first lol. Thanks all for the comments, hope it was a useful exercise :lol: will hopefully be able to update sometime this week.

Brother Kovash Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Sandalphon, that's some great stuff. Just as I was about to attempt doing these myself too, you've saved the day.

HsojVvad Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Thanks very much for this "simple tuturial". I never thought I could do this, but you have shown that it can be done. Thank you. I will try this now as well. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225782-freehand-dw-da-icons-tutorial/#findComment-2705187 Share on other sites More sharing options...
