Lachdannan Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I quite like the bronze on that dreadnought. Makes it look nice and ancient. That and the black 'shoulder pads' make it tie in with the rest of the force.

Redfinger Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Oh well, you can't please everyone all of the time! And you shouldn't try either, I think your work is very nice and technically sound, I am just not thrilled with the color, but keep up the good work.

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Been doing a bit of work and I think it looks a bit more balanced now. http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0a5dnHjyQ1qd9z3no1_1280.jpg Still a long way to go yet though!

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Bit of a weathering update from the dreadnought, do you think it's dirty enough? http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0hbaw9dEJ1qd9z3no1_500.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242163-imperial-fists-wip-thread/page/4/#findComment-3009131 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obscura Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 That Dreadnought looks amazing with the current details, aging the name plates upon the sarcophagi was a great way to add some depth. It's coming together nicely. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242163-imperial-fists-wip-thread/page/4/#findComment-3009139 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olis Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Cool dread - the lenses and the bronze are the first things that catch my eye for praise.

Grizzly_bear Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 That's a big shield lol great looking force here fella an that dreads colours work really well together with the depth in the bronze.

Lachdannan Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Nice looking captain. Sicarius is a great model to use, and I like your choice of bits. As for a helmet, I'd either go old (MKII or MKIII) or none. How did you tackle his right shoulder pad? I had to shave down the 'U' and added a Fist symbol. Looking forward to some paint.

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Hey Brother Syth, I'll take a pic tomorrow but I fixed the U on the eagle pad by using GS to convert it into an approximate of a shield shape, so I can paint some heraldry onto it. I didn't realise until now how close my Captain is to yours! They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! In other news, I've started to convert his shield to fit the Imperial Fists: http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m17a4zvHBX1qd9z3no1_500.jpg I actually quite like the skeleton on the shield, fits with the scrimshaw fluff.
