civsmitty Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Congrats! I just checked the blog, and my first thought upon seeing the Templar was, "Wait, that's the Barbarossa Crusade!" Well done, brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Hate...you...so...much! :P Before this nasty little slice of awesome came along, the only BT army to pop up that made me seriously question the quality of my painting was Dannis'. Even then, all I had to do was maybe go back and work on some fading/blending here and there, and I'd be as good. Plus, he never finishes anything ( ;) ), so I at least had productivity on my side. But you....ohhhh no. Not only did you drop a bombshell of Slaaneshy-level artistic perfection on the subforum, but you actually kept up a ludicrously productive pace! Now I've got Jasper staring at me from my desk, scolding my inadequacy in service of the Chapter. :teehee: Much respect to your work, and your GW web mention. I'll just have to hope I end up being a good player so I can still keep my head high around my own little black zealots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmatt Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 http://666kb.com/i/bw0aed4me5ips7kjz.jpg Thanks a lot to all of you. Those kind words always are pure motivation for me. I´d like to share a WIP of my upcoming Preadotr Tank "Greif" with you. Still a long, very, very long way from being finihes but I think it allows a slight idea of what I´m aiming for... :-) http://666kb.com/i/bzjdcshw8skcrol6t.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sushichef Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Your painting is so awesome :P Can you enlighten us on how did you do the bone/white parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmatt Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 A video tutorial will cover that around the end of next week on my next tank. Regard it as some kind of Midwinter-Present... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogun Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Oh nice :lol: Did you use an airbrush? If you did which one do you use? Looking into maybe getting one myself. Great work :) Looking forward to more youtube vids :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Hadrarius Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Just echoing others congrats really your work is beautiful and swung me to going to bone rather than white! so yeah good looking and inspirational too what more could a guy ask for :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmatt Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 http://666kb.com/i/bw0aed4me5ips7kjz.jpg My second video tutorial is online. Still working on my style and some technical aspects. Once I´m sure about that I´ll cover the more juicy contents as black armour, use of oil colours and so on... Keep me motivated and help me with your feedback... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I try and stay away from transfers, but those (the text ones) look fairly sweet. Are those the ones from forgeworld? And the decal medium/fix you use in the vid, do they work better than just plain old water on surface first then add the transfer. Do they hold better? do the transfers still have a shiny finish to them or a matt finish to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmatt Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 They stick better, work on rounded surfaces and give it a matt finish. In the end it´s really hard to tell decal from freehand except for the degree of perfection. Give it a try. I shared your opinion before I first used this stuff. You´ll start loving decals. The forgeworld decals are especially nice and have a pretty thin layer, so they work even better. Really, give it a try it´s worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roesor Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Loving the modified barrel, if autocannons actually looked closer to that I'd consider using them o.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I like the autocannon too. Very reminiscent of the 88mm cannon. Reminds me of the Tiger or the Panther tanks. :) The paintjob is very good, too. The weathering and the OSL are just right, imho. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmatt Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Thanks. The autocannon is a King Tiger 1:35 scale barrel made of brass and aluminum. Cool stuff. Wishful thinking might be amour-priecing shells for the autocannon with S7 DS1 and 2D6 and choose the higher result for armour penetration. But that remains in the land of wishful thinking only...

sehguhdier Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 It really is truly exceptional work. Just how I want to paint my Templars, but I won't come close at all. I've got to get over the hurdle of thinning my paints haha. I'm very scientific and a little OCD- I like to paint out of the pots so I can follow a formula.
