horrain Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Hey folks, started a DoA army, and have completed my first combat squad. I've realised that completely building the model before painting slows down the process a ton, so when I build the next unit I'll paint the red torse separate from the shoulder pads, helmet and backpack. http://horrain.com/photos/FT-Combat-Squad/IMG_20110721_214607.jpg http://horrain.com/photos/FT-Combat-Squad/IMG_20110721_215207.jpg http://horrain.com/photos/FT-Combat-Squad/IMG_20110721_215213.jpg http://horrain.com/photos/FT-Combat-Squad/IMG_20110721_215218.jpg http://horrain.com/photos/FT-Combat-Squad/IMG_20110721_215224.jpg http://horrain.com/photos/FT-Combat-Squad/IMG_20110721_215237.jpg Thanks for looking, hope you enjoy :rolleyes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234706-flesh-tearer-combat-squad/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Neophyte of War Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Wow these guys are looking really slick. I would only suggests that you paint in the vents of the armour but these guys are looking badass. Are the symbols handpainted?

Olis Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 As Neophyte has pointed out - those are hand painted FT symbols, yes? They're pretty good. Going to add a blood drop in the middle?

Doghouse Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Very nice stuff! I really like the gore, works well with them. :rolleyes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/234706-flesh-tearer-combat-squad/#findComment-2825879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
horrain Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 ... I would only suggests that you paint in the vents of the armour ... Are the symbols handpainted? I assume by vents you mean the flex joints, if so I was originally going to paint them, but on my test model I think it darkens the torse and legs to much, making the model look to dark. Check the photo below for my test model. I know I messed up the jumppack, I've since painted it black, and the model was just to dark :S http://horrain.com/photos/FT-test-03.jpeg As for the symbols, they are hand painted, but I'm not happy with them, so I've ordered some of the small metal ones to replace them with. Going to add a blood drop in the middle? Ah yeah I'd not realised I'd missed them till you pointed it out, /me fails ^_^ I really like the gore, works well with them. :cuss Thanks, I was worrying it maybe a tad over the top, as its kind of a unifying style choice, as both my Dark Angels(to a lesser extent) and my Cloven Beastmarines(to an excess) have the same blood effect.
