Nafi Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Having been inspired by the many recent Heresy Era topics I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon. So without further ado I present you with the first of my Death Guard Legionnaires I feel my shade of green may be a bit to dark what do you all think? and please excuse the picture quality I'm still trying to figure out the best way to photograph white models Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 The green does look a touch too dark. Maybe if you used that as the shadow color and bump up the brightness a bit for the base? Otherwise, looking good so far! :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/#findComment-2891344 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Guard Trooper Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Well I think you gotta go with what you like, I do mine a little darker white or like an eggshell and i'm happy with them. But yes for me id say the green is a little dark. maybe highlight it as see where your at??? Otherwise good stuff, keep em coming.

Natanael Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Looks good. I think the green is great, but the white is a little too white. A splash of mud or some wear and tear would look great. - Nat Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/#findComment-2891637 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Guard Trooper Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 For me, I like the new one you did. Much more DG for me. Which one are you thinking your going to go with?

I think I'm gonna go with the new one it ended up looking a bit more OD green which I feel fits in well with the DG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/#findComment-2891833 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Guard Trooper Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I use the Mk III Armor for my Sternguard being that my Death Guard are non Heresy Era. Havent based mine, yours looks awesome, I like the Phobos bolter route you went as well, I may pick those up for some of my regular troops now that I see how they can turn out. Here is my Squad Sergeant I did for my army. http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc381/Death_Guard_Trooper/WIP/DeathGuardSternRight.jpg http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc381/Death_Guard_Trooper/WIP/DeathGuardSternFront.jpg http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc381/Death_Guard_Trooper/WIP/DeathGuardSternLeft.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/#findComment-2892219 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nafi Posted October 12, 2011 Author Share Posted October 12, 2011 http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc381/Death_Guard_Trooper/WIP/DeathGuardSternLeft.jpg First off how did you work out that pointing finger? And secondly been doing some work on my Legionaries Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/#findComment-2898181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death Guard Trooper Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 For the squad sergeant I used the excess hand from the Grey Knights box I got. Your troops are coming along very well! I am only using the Heresy style armor for my Sternguard squad. The rest of mine will be current battle plate except I sand down everything for the plain look I think the DG would have continued to go with.

Ah, I guess I need to get a hold of some of those as this is going to be in full Heresy-era gear I'll want to add some variety to the pretty static Mk.III models Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/239664-heresy-era-death-guard/#findComment-2899811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tellos05 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Nice looking stuff. Its always good to see pre heresy marines. I got a few squads of the mk3 armor begging to be painted. How did u find placeing the bolters with the extra forearm armor? Coz I found theres a small gap between the right fist and the weapon.
