Recommended Posts

Sorry for being able to post a tutorial as of yet... I will try soon.

 

@Ludovic- I will try and PM you soon with paint sequences.

 

 

Here's a few more that I managed to complete.

@Battle-Brother Ludovic- Yeah, I could not seem to get that straightened. It was a tricky model to assemble, I had to heavily pin both arms and wrists...

 

Here's better angle and a shot of my Company Champion conversion...

INFORMATION IS VICTORY!

I love the new Scouts you've added :lol: However, I have seen something that I'm not too keen on: your skin seems to lack depth. This may be due to the strong lighting you have, but it may also be your painting style. I'm not sure which. And I could be much mistaken :P

 

Anyway, looking forward to seeing more!

 

Ludovic

Thank you brothers.

 

@Ludovic- The skin is rather pale, but the photos are very washed out. My camera is too old (1999 Sony Cyber shot). But honestly, I should try some heavier washes with the flesh tones.

 

@Fallen Artist- Thanks for the feedback. I wish I had a PC or game system that could play that game!

Finished up the tank commander over the weekend. This was a gift from a chap from the UK that he included in a trade we made many years ago. I've had this model in my bits box forever. Finbally got some paint on him.

I'm intrigued to see how those changes will come out :)

 

And I quite like that model, though its age does show... What's up next?

 

Ludovic

@Brother Ludovic- I did actually add some washes to this guy's flesh, but my camera is washing everything out. I am considering going back to a sky blue back drop or maybe even trying a white or light grey. The black back drop I am using now is messing with my camera's white balance.

 

What's up next? Well, I have a landspeeder prepped and blocked for priming, but my paint season is coming to a close. Once Spring hits my focus shifts to my other addiction, golf. I renetly started back working weekends at a local golf club about five minutes from my house. I am on the maintenance crew so I get to drive tractors and other machines at the crack of dawn. It's great, plus I get to golf for free. Anyway, I usually close up my workshop until Fall... So we'll see.

 

If I don't post for a while, look for me in September/ October!

 

I may also try and get a group shot of all my Ultras, they are on display at my local hobby shop.

 

FOR THE EMPEROR!

Brothers, I have finally returned to the Imperial Painting table...

 

Got some paint on this Landspeeder...

It looks like you are over exposing your photos slightly. the black backgrounds look rather too light.

*digs out still used sony cybershot*

 

If you use the P setting, there is an option in the menus to change the EV something. Stick a slight negative value on there, and see what happens.

Sorry I can't be a little more helpful, my battery needs charging.

 

Awesome models though :)

Hey thanks for the comments Bothers.

 

@VD Just set the exposure to -.07 on my old Cyber Shot. Thanks for the camera advice, I will be shooting some pics of a Ultra Captain I just finished. We'll see if that helps the washing out effects...

 

BSS

Ask and ye shall receive Brother Ludovic!

 

1st Company Ultramarine Captain. I finished him up last night.

 

The exposure seems a bit better on this one...

Your army is looking aces all round, but this face screams Mission Impossible mask.

 

Cheers,

Jono

 

That's because he's obviously an Alpha Marine.

Completed these three last night... I love working with metal sculpts like these.

 

Enjoy.
