WeaponAdept Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hey, some of you will have seen my DIY guys. Apart from some god awful blood angels when I was about 13 I have never painted a 1st Founding chapter. I figured I may as well do the poster boys. Well, here it is; Brother Noobious of the 2nd Coy.

WeaponAdept Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 Thanks for the compliments :D I don't dry brush, it's just layering and highlights. EDIT: and washes, 2 or three washes.

Zincite Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 It's nice. The base could do with cleaning up a little though. I demand your recipe for gold!

Rafen_2 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 I like him! Can we expect more or is this just a "I'm bored so I'm gonna paint a Smurf" thing?

UltraRich Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Good stuff They are painted in the same old school way as mine with the gold trim and red bolters so I can appreciate this.

WeaponAdept Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 I'm severly tempted to do more. Blue is a great colour to work with. And no, I'm no base-artist.... Going to do a DA, a WS and a IF too! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239539-my-firstest-ever-ultramarine/#findComment-2891246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zincite Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Darn. You use those funny non-GW colours. And I feel your pain with the bases. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239539-my-firstest-ever-ultramarine/#findComment-2891673 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeaponAdept Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 Darn. You use those funny non-GW colours. ;) you can get em all over the place, they ARE a good alternative, they are thicker than GW paints tho.
