CosmicCreations Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Well it's been a while since I've shown my face on here, so I thought it's time to upload something. I have always refused to do a Chaos Army, purely because I feel it's impossible to paint and model Chaos in a way that I feel fully presents it well. I have always imagined Chaos to emit an aura. And then the Space Marine Game was released, and I almost died. Their portrayal of Chaos, with the cool blue/purple/red/pink warp portals and the whole atmosphere change was, in my head, spot on. It was everything I wanted to see from Chaos, but I still found it hard to find a way to paint and model it.....until now. In a very quick 2 minute trial, I decided to see if I could make the gaps in a Space Marines armour 'glow', something I've always thought would happen with Chaos Marines. So with a limited experience of painting OSL, I set about doing it, and came up with this......... http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo11/Cosmic_Castaway2157/Space%20Marines/SAM_2340.jpg There is very poor lighting here at the moment (stupid thunderstorm) so I played with the contrast to try and get a better picture...... http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo11/Cosmic_Castaway2157/Space%20Marines/SAM_2341.jpg But I'm sure you get the idea. Now I know these aren't Chaos SM legs, but it still shows my idea. I'm now going to continue practicing and hopefully this will lead into something proper, until then, input please!! :) Cosmic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majorpayne327 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I think it looks great. I would like to know how you did this. I'm currently trying this on the Legion of the Damned Models to make their flames glow but as of now it looks like blood. Please post a tut or a link to the one you used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Looks very nice. Kinda like the insides of his armor glow with lava or something. Edit: I agree if you could post a tutorial that'd be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subtlebrush Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Awesome job Cosmic! I too love the portrayal of Chaos in the Space Marine game, especially the Chaos Lord. This scheme reminds me of Hakanor's Reavers. http://i1214.photobucket.com/albums/cc496/Mr_Malevolent/HakanorsReaversMarine.jpg Now hurry up and make a tutorial so I can try this out and make some Reavers haha! +++Mr.M+++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Padawan Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Cosmic: Dude that is frakin' awesome!!!! That is how I view The Thosusand Sons legion armour would be post Heresy. That is a cracking job you done there considering it took you two mins to do?! It has a very burned/charred look to it with the Chaos aura trying to burn its way through. Really like it mate, hope you manage to come up with a nice 'perfected' recipe for this. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
