Grimtooth Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Nice and crisp. A little too parade ground clean for me, but those colors are popping!

hendrik Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 clean painting! the landraider really pops out though due to so much bright yellow compared to the other models Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238511-brother-mjollners-space-wolves/#findComment-2876996 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfebane Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Agreed. I'd consider a less "yellow" yellow for the tank.. leaning more toward yellow-ochre. Your basing and painting looks pretty spiffy, though Harald's axe could use some love. Â As for the pics themselves, they're not too big.. if anything, the bigger the better, so long as it's in focus.

Brother Mjollner Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 The land raider isn't quite as yellow as it looks, pics were taken in my workshop, under 4 separate halogen lamps. Thanks for the feed back though.. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238511-brother-mjollners-space-wolves/#findComment-2877466 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Wilhelm Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 The land raider isn't quite as yellow as it looks, pics were taken in my workshop, under 4 separate halogen lamps. Thanks for the feed back though.. Â These look good, from what I can decipher :D The colours look a little flat, but that could be due to the photos/lighting, etc. more than anything else. Have you washed the areas, to bring depth to them? I think it is the photos to be honest. Â When photographing, I think it is worthwhile clearing the area around them, so things like paints, other minis, etc. do not distract from the mini being photo'ed. A sheet of paper behind and underneath the mini in a curve, can be a great way of dispersing light and giving a nice tofu background, so the mini is the centre piece. Kind of like how restaurants serve their meals in the middle of a white plate for presentation purposes. Â How do you like the Vallejo paints, compared to the GW ones? Do you use any other brands? Â I really like neat painting, and you have certainly done that. Yellow is also one of my favourite colours, and yours looks clean and with good coverage, which is hard with yellow. Â Very nice :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238511-brother-mjollners-space-wolves/#findComment-2877684 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Mjollner Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Well these were quick photos with my iPad in my workshop, not proper camera shots, my digital camera has been missing in wife's care for sometime now. I like the Vallejo paints a lot! I bounce between those and gw paints all time depending on what I'm doing. Vallejo brushes if you can find them are well worth the investment. Their fine detail brush set is the best quality I've seen.

Brother Mjollner Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 Inspired by another thread in this forum about Wolf Priests and how you model them, I started my Wolf Priest in Terminator Armor this weekend. Only the bone bits and most of the bronze detailing is done, and the head of his rozarius (spelling?). The Yellow shoulder and shield will need to be done, my dry brushing on the bronze bits got a little outta control. Even if I never play with a Wolf Priest in Terminator Armor, I think he looks pretty badasss... Brother Mjollner.

Brother Mjollner Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 My version of Bjorn, also awaiting Primer. I always hated the lightning claw on the old Metal version, looked to bulkie to me, the Arms are Magnatized, and of course the lightning claw arm is crooked :: sigh:: so before he's primed I need to fix that and add a flamer to the arm, I'm also kinda smackn my self in the head here because I'd already added the storm bolter to the sarcofagus don't wanna risk trying to pry it off... I also have a pelt to add to the lightning claw arm. Brother Mjollner.

adary Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I like your wolves a lot. Only think I would change about them is the yellow on the land raider. Perhaps just toned down a bit with a black or brown wash. Otherwise it looks amazing ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238511-brother-mjollners-space-wolves/#findComment-2883219 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Mjollner Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Finished a Grey Hunter not long ago... here's a few updated pics... Once again pics taken with my Ipad, ( I gotta find the digital camera) I'm considering highlighting the Wolf on the left shoulder pad with maybe a codex grey and and throwing some codex grey and orange highlights into the pack markings on the right shoulder pad, anyone have an opinion? I'm not entirely happy with the pelt on the back, anyone have any suggestions? Thanks for looking... Brother Mjollner...

Blacksad Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I'd deffinatly go with the codex or fortress grey on that wolf shoulderpad. as for the pelt, are you unhappy with the painting, or the modelling? if it's the painting: the best looking wolves I've seen painted so far where whitepelted. (skullwhite, badab black, skullwhite highlights and a wee bit of gryphonne sephia washing...

Brother Mjollner Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Here's a work in progres pic of my rune priest in terminator armor. The right shoulder pad has 2mm runes from Secret Weapon Miniatures. http://www.secretweaponminiatures.com/inde...;products_id=18 I really like their Runic Mountain Bases as well, i've used one of them in the Grey Hunter posted above. It's a pity the pic's didn't come out better, it looks pretty sweet in person, just need to add some highlights.

Brother Mjollner Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 And last pic for the evening, from a thread arround here about The Chooser of the Slain, I whipped this guy up from the Dryad Box from the Fantasy range, I've also made up another one with the raven from the Empire General box it's the bird standing on the shield, but this was after I'd taken pictures. I'll try and snap a pic of the othe one with in the next few days. and as always thanks for looking, Brother Mjollner.

I should have used Devlin Mud over the whole thing and Gryphonne Sephia in just the darkest spots I think that would have come out better.

Blacksad Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 last models I've tried, I mixed Gryphonne with golden yellow and water... think I should have left the golden yellow out, or used less. dunno, and don't have a camera capable of taking good enough of a picture to put online and ask others Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238511-brother-mjollners-space-wolves/#findComment-2908114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
