Serraphim Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 So after a very long hiatus from 40K I've decided that I really want an Angels Sanguine army, mainly because the new kits are awesome. I have 2 lists planned a drop pod assault lead by Tycho and a Sanguine Guard force, all 1850. So for my first purchases after the book I got 2 boxes of SG and put one of them together, I wanted to learn the kit before I convert my Dante. Last night I started working on one of the SG. I know that the gold looks less gold and more bronze, but there's only 1 level on highlight on now and I've got a tonne of glazing to do. Without further ado pics: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0097.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0098.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0099.jpg C&C highly appreciated.

Zincite Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Looks good so far! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234038-the-half-dead/#findComment-2817698 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serraphim Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 I feel that the NMM Gold is pretty much finished, although I'll do a final round of highlights and shading before I varnish to make sure everything ties together well. I also started the first couple coats of the "black" which is really 4/1/1 Chaos Black/Beastial Brown/Reaper Master Royal Purple. http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0100.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0102.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0101.jpg I was reading a thread over on warseer about Primarch art and I came across this: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a195/San...foriginalsi.jpg I am stunned by it and I think it'll make a good basis for my Sentikan (Dante). Also if anyone knows who did the original please let me know so I can credit them.

Biohazard Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 The artist who painted that Sanguinius goes by the name of Colrouphobic on most sites or 1mpact on Deviant art. Heres a link to his other work. http://1mpact.deviantart.com/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234038-the-half-dead/#findComment-2819002 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serraphim Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 Thanks, sent a PM to the owner of the artwork to make sure its okay for me to use for Sentikan.

Serraphim Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Unfortunately due to my back hurting I wasn't really able to paint. However lounging on the couch and kit bashing were definitely in. I decided that I wanted to convert up a counts as Dante: Sentikan the Sanguine Seraphim, Lord of the Angels Sanguine. Armed with the Spear of Longinius (Mastercrafted Power Weapon) and wearing the Angelic Mantle (Jump pack that gives his squad never scatter and hit and run) and Face of Rage. Crafted by Sanguinius himself during his recovery period after Signus Prime it is imbued with a portion of Sanguinis' Rage which the wearer can activate to call down a curse on a single enemy (Death Mask of Sanguinius) You can sort of see the tubing into the Face of Rage: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0106.jpg The Spear of Longinius is still rough right now: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0107.jpg The hair was surprisingly easier than I thought it would be: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0108.jpg Chapter Symbol and Cloak, which needs to be sanded down: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e255/serraphim/GW/IMAG0109.jpg For those of you that use a Milliput Milk/Juice, what flavour of Milliput do you use? The super fine? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234038-the-half-dead/#findComment-2819791 Share on other sites More sharing options...
verpine Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I don't think there's enough contrast in the NMM gold to make it convincing. The darks need to be darker and the light lighter. This is what i mean. I don't mean to sound harsh though, you're an amazing painter.

Serraphim Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 You sir are an amazing painter. I love you sons of orar. And I know what you mean about the NMM but I'm waiting until everything else is done so that I know just how high to take it.

Serraphim Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 Thanks for the kind words. Finally got back to painting after taking a couple days off. Nothing really interesting I base coated the gold on the other 4 SG. I'm going to bring the highlights up a lot more (go bold) on the first SG, but I'm going to do all 5 at the same time. Hopefully I can get some good pictures tonight, I might just have to buy that light box from Thinkgeek so I can take semi decent photos.
