ephrael Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 An excellent model. The green and white make for a very striking character and the battle damage is perfect. Congratulations on the win at the painting competition.

Dosjetka Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Very cool. I really like that falcon, where did you get it? And the tone of green you used is sublime :D What was the basecolour?

plasman Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Very nice I love the way the falcon is painted. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242055-jade-falcon-captain/#findComment-2925726 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 That's a good conversion and paintjob there. More spartan than alot of other captains out there. Also, as others have asked, where's the falcon from? (Is it a fantasy accessory? Empire? Bretonnian?)

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hey guys, Cheers for all your feedback, I'm really pleased with the result. The falcon is from a Brettonian unit, Men at Arms I think. The green is a base of Snot Green, a layer of 50/50 Snot to Goblin, edged with 75/25 Snot to Scorpion then finally pure Scorpion.

Firepower Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Sweet. Very similar to the look of an old DIY Chapter of mine, well, similar color scheme, but much better execution. :) I look forward to seeing more.

Hyaenidae Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Very well done, he has a proud, regal look and feel to him.

AngryJohnny Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Excellent work WotF! I really like the scheme & the pose. Your paint job is done really well also. I saw this over in the WIP section & I really like how he wrapped up. Have you decided on doing a whole army in this scheme? A group of these would look fantastic.

Lachdannan Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Really nice selection of colours, and such a nice commander. Plus the battle damage is really nice. Well done, and would like to see more. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242055-jade-falcon-captain/#findComment-2928894 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha PTP Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 The GS work you did over the mouth plate of the helmet is a bit off, but the rest of the model is great. I am a big fan of the green and the battle damage. You didn't go overboard with it like most people do. I personally would have painted the pistol holster other than black simply because it is a good chance to compliment the brown of the falcon. I would say paint the grenades the traditional olive green, but that would just be too much green on the model. Awesome otherwise.

NemFX Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Ah, star kernel, I challenge you to a bachall. .. Was I really the only one who was expecting some sort of 40k / Battletech crossover? .. We need more of those.

Redfinger Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Not a big fan of that much green, but nice over all...I tell you though, you missed a wicked opportunity though....that falcon needs "grim darkness of the future" bling...hoses, pipes, a mechanical wing, a fake eye, ect....that would have been epic.
