ron Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) I'm sneaking this onto the web as I haven't posted the pics on my own blog yet. He's for a contest, but I figured some of you Red Scorpion guys might enjoy seeing him. I think the color scheme is very cool, the grey with the yellow/gold accent color. One of the better looking chapters out there. He painted up fairly quick too, one evening of messing around and I was able to finish him.

Olis Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Looks fairly decent - nice brown dust on his feet there. :mellow: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/235937-red-scorpions-veteran-sergeant/#findComment-2841983 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Fairly decent indeed! <_< I've never been a fan of the helmet, but on this guy it looks good. I'd like to see the tilt pads if possible?

Tyrannicide Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Fairly decent? ;) It looks awesome. Really digging the knee marking and the white helmet. Great painting, as always.

ron Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 Thanks guys! I've added some more pics of him to the original post now that I had them uploaded.

Bannus Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Yes, for a test model (i.e. you haven't had any practice painting dozens of them), I think it looks really, really good. I think you have found a Chapter you really like.

Bat33.1 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 looks very good. If I was being super critical, you did say this was a comp entry, I'd say the hand holding the bolter looks a little clean almost as if it was touched up after the rest of the mini was finished but otherwise a nice weathered look.

Hyaenidae Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 looks very good.

I'd disagree, I think the Plasma Pistol is well scorched, and just as filthy as the bionic arm. Beautiful mini, bro. I'd love to see what else you have up your sleeve. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/235937-red-scorpions-veteran-sergeant/#findComment-2843811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Fairly decent? :rolleyes: It looks awesome. Really digging the knee marking and the white helmet. Great painting, as always. Ah, yes, you see I'm a Brit.

Darkchild130 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 What colours did you use for the grey portions of the armour if you dont mind me asking?

Race Bannon Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Is that a hand-painted Chapter symbol? Good gravy if it is. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/235937-red-scorpions-veteran-sergeant/#findComment-2845410 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd disagree, I think the Plasma Pistol is well scorched, and just as filthy as the bionic arm. The plasma pistol is fine, take a look at the hand itself and compare it to the rest of the armour weathering Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/235937-red-scorpions-veteran-sergeant/#findComment-2849286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
