Phatsquirre1 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I'm trying to build up a new chapter since I sold off my old one. So, the Astral Guard are my new Chapter. Here are a few pics of them so far. thats what i'm going for...here's what i've got: http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/40kninjaman/5...in/photostream/ The models are my first Vindicator, combat squad, Chaplain in Terminator armor, Chaplain, and Company Commander Erik. Erik will have a few models but this is his first incarnation. all the models are WIP until their bases are sone but i haven't decided how to base them yet. they also need a few touch ups at this point. (Sorry about the links...I'd prefer to show the pictures straight on the site but i don't know how to do that. Any help would be great :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volgon Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 From what I can tell they look good. I do think they need more contrast, however. The black on silver look is ok for the armor but then you've painted the bolters black as well. I'd suggest giving the body of the bolters a different color, just something to make it pop out from the rest of the model :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phatsquirre1 Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 Thanks for the feedback :) I'll see what i can come up with. The black actually looks really good when you have the models and i was going for a utilitarian look, but it is kind of plain. Hmm....what colors would work well?

Mac the knife Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 You can go with the classic red on the bolters, but I think a brightish blue would make them pop a bit and be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phatsquirre1 Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 Ok i'll try it out :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phatsquirre1 Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 Ok so here's my update so far: Finished a tempest, started 6 marines including meltagunners. should be done soon. found a couple of captain bodies i could use for Erik. I need a hand and i'm hoping to get a really cool helmet for him but what do you think i should do, since these guys are new-ish? only newer marks of armor? Marines!
