CosmicCreations Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Well a couple of hours ago I started a WIP thread, but I finished it quicker than I thought I would! So it goes in the Hall of Honour. Took about 2 and a half hours altogether.... http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo11/Cosmic_Castaway2157/Space%20Marines/Photo3653.jpg I'm really happy with it. There might be some indiscretions but that always happens no matter what. What do you think? Cosmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zincite Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I like it! The sharper turns of the 'mouth' is good, generally they tend to be more rounded. Only thing is, the metal looks a little 'soft'. It looks more like a tube of lip-balm than metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Only thing is, the metal looks a little 'soft'. It looks more like a tube of lip-balm than metal. That is the only criticism I have too. Otherwise, great stuff <_< I only just commented on your WIP thread :wacko: Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicCreations Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Thanks you two <_< What would you suggest about the metal then? More variations in shades? Sharper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Sharper edges, I think. Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Something Wycked Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I think the two "pipes" coming out of the "mouth" could be raised/rounded a bit more. Everything else in the piece has great shaping and depth, but those two silver pieces don't really stick out at me. Fantastic work on the whole, though- I like it a lot! :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironbug Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Wow.. Amazingly impressive! Not to derail, but..I'd totally buy one :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicCreations Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Thanks everyone :( I'll bear the metal things in mind. I don't really want to go back over it in case I cock it up! But, the good news is that I've bought a second canvas and I'm currently starting a Chaos Marine, I thought they'd look good newxt to each other, so look out for updates! And it'll give me a second chance to work on metal areas. Cosmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Ambroz Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Have you thought of doing any commision paintings? I think it'd be really cool if you can get those metal parts I'd definitely buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'd be really cool if you can get those metal parts I'd definitely buy one. I'd love to do commission work :) The Chaos marine is VERY nearly finished, just need to do the right Shoulder pad. So an update tomorrow. I'm still struggling a little with the metal so I'm going to do some studies tomorrow until I get it right. Cosmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicCreations Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Sorry for the double post but the Chaos Marine is finished now too... http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo11/Cosmic_Castaway2157/Space%20Marines/SAM_2050.jpg I've improved the metal pipes slightly, but I didn't want to go all out this time incase it went horribly wrong. I think they look better and I'm happy as they are. Hopefully I'll get better at it as more paintings get done. Cosmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Not bad, but there's still room for improvement, as always :lol: Maybe if you made the ends flat and not rounded, maybe it would look better? Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
