Nrthstar Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 So my new painting system is much slower (1 model at a time) but I'm much happier with the results. It's been awhile since I've finished anything, I mean really I have 5k points of SW in which each model is only 60% finished and I dislike my old paint scheme anyways. The Drunkards tavern is getting there too, but hand cutting bricks into the floor is mind numbing. But here's something I actually finished and I'm thrilled even though comparably, it's not much :yes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/240394-norths-ongoing-army/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

WG Vrox Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Looks great, I notice you have some brush strokes showing on your shoulder pads. If you want a smoother look, try thinning your paint. To keep the deeper color you may have to add a few more layers though. In the end I think you will be happier.

Wolf Lord Duregar Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 BLASPHEMY.....using a heavy bolter and not a ML ;) Looks good ´eavy shootas are great! ;) Nice job Nrthstar! Maybe it looks like the red on his shoulder pad is "spilling out" onto the rime though? And I might prefer darker metal, on the belt-feed for example, but that´s just a personal preference and might be the lights anyways? Job´s a gud one!

Nrthstar Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 Shoulderpads are the bane of my existence. I knew from the first layer i didn't have it thin enough, and each layer upward has shown it. I'll add a couple more layers before i add marks and also redo my edges. The metal is just the lighting, I used Boltgun metal and washed it with badab black, I'm surprised it looks shiny at all.

Been giving my metal two washes of BB. Works well. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/240394-norths-ongoing-army/#findComment-2901873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthstar Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 A conversion idea that I didn't execute perfectly, but I still like him, still gotta do the base and the pack marks. I'm struggling between Bloodhowl's (I love tattoos having a few myself), Deathwolf's or Redmaw's Great Company. Or hell just sticking to Grimnar's or Blackmanes. Choices Choices.

hendrik Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 personally i love the sign of the bloodied hunter but i'd say you just pick whatever GC symbol you like the most. ignore the fluff, why? since it's a space wolves great company, a force so flexible it can equip itself fitting the mission. do you need stealth to cleanse that pesky heretic family from the hive rags? maybe this time you should'nt droppod but just ask the old wolf to send some of his scouts? oy krakendoom, you wish to board that ork infested space hulk, on your BIKE and with your rhinos?
