Beast_of_Amareo Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 This is the first painted model from my Flesh Tearers army. He is part of the unit that I first posted here. I am sorry for the poor quality of the photos (some details are either lost or distorted), but I hope that you get a fairly good idea of what he looks like. The base has been left unpainted, because I plan to base him on a scenic base and I am still waiting for my order to be delivered. As always C&C are more than welcome. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1672.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1671.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1670.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1676.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1674.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1663.jpg and a new perspective http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d24/Antipatros/IMG_1668.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Looks pretty fine to me. Where did the shoulder pads come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast_of_Amareo Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 Looks pretty fine to me. Where did the shoulder pads come from? The right shoulder pad comes from the World Eaters FW kit. I just trimmed the Khorne symbol and voila! The left shoulder pad is a conversion of mine from the the studs to the buzz-saw trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 He looks awesome, the studded armour works really well for the brutal Flesh Tearers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Captain Sharp Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 He looks great! I would just recommend a Baal Red wash to bring the highlights down a little, but that's personal preference. That shoulderpad is ace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have already passed it with Baal Red, but it still came too bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ragnarok Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Good work! The thunder hamnmer/axe is very fitting for Flesh Tearers. Bludgeon and rip at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muskie Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Pretty good. I don't highlight up to white heck I don't edge highlight red much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Hiltraud Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 All of your FT models are very cool, I enjoyed looking at them all. I like the way you have highlighted up to almost a white on this model, I may try that myself someday in the near future. The studded shoulder pad conversion is !*&%$#^@! AWESOME! ... I like the thunder hammer conversion too :D Yours in Honour, Faith and Blood, Chaplain Hiltraud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draakur Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I think if someone tried to describe your highlighting technique to me, it would sound like something I wouldn't like. In practice though the method really speaks for itself, looks pretty terrific IMO. The conversions are obviously great too, but I wanted more to point out your good choices as far as detailing goes; the orange of the skull on the axe and the shade of the axe handle etc look good and work well with the rest of the colours. Little stuff like that can make all the difference, so I thought you should know that it's worked well. Impressive work :cuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast_of_Amareo Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 Wow, guys you literally make me blush. I have never expected such a feedback, when I first posted these pics. Your comments are certainly very motivational and encourage me to make an effort to paint more often. I am also really glad that you liked the conversions, because apart from the time dedicated in their design they turned out to be also quite costly in time and effort :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast_of_Amareo Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Very impressive! I cant wait to see the rest! Thanks again. Now with feedback like this you put a lot of stress on me for my next piece :tu: P.S.: I've added yet another picture of the model, that I had forgotten to upload.
