ron Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Painted this guy up as a way to go over the things you should watch for when painting camo on marines. The tutorial is here, but the finished pics are below. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olis Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Is that a freehand Holwing Griffons chapter symbol I spy? Well done to you if it is, brother. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 Grimdarkness: Thanks! Olisredan: It is, but it's not that good. Fortunately, the camo hides it enough to get by. That and I only had to paint one model so I could put some time into getting it detailed. I have a better one here. It's on the classic red and yellow quartered scheme so there was no hiding.

mr tough guy Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Looks great man, great scheme and combined with the MK6 it's very Rogue Trader, also love the backpack, is that a conversion? it's great to complete the RT look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 also love the backpack, is that a conversion? it's great to complete the RT look Looks like a regular backpack with a GS'ed spine added on. I hadn't noticed first time around. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Yes, the backpack is a conversion. That and the chest plate too. I'm putting together another post on the conversion aspect as well, I just need to go through all my pics first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Tancrede Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Nice to see some camouflaged SM. It brings me back to the old days of Rogue Traders, and it's really cool !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legoss Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Wow Ron, when I read your post on the blog I was just impressed the camo looked so good, I didn't even notice the conversions on the model. Can't wait to seethe conversion tutorial on the blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 For me, the whole reason to do Badab is to be able to paint camo marines. This scheme is one of my favorites. Excellent job and two thumbs up from me. I'll have to go back and check some of my reference material, but wasn't there a deeper color similar to the black spots as the shade? Did you decide to simplify (which I would understand)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfinger Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 camouflaged marines....heresy, where is the wrack? Nice paint job though :) Ashton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 camouflaged marines....heresy, where is the wrack? Actually, you might consider doing a little research. Before there was "THE BADAB WAR" redone in ForgeWision , there was a little mix up between presumably loyal space marine chapters and nearly all of them were camo'd...and they looked awesome. This is what the Howling Griffins looked like before they were drawn and quartered. :tu: Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
