Captain Semper Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 This is great OMG, you are doing a very high quality job there. And yes I'll join Olisredan in being jealous :) Can you provide a frontal picture from a Marine eye level? I'd like to take a better look on the chest detail. That is, if possible. Please. Sir. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 My pleasure. Next round I'll snap one for you. Might even have a painted head in place by that time. Cheers, -OMG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkMark Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Looks great. You'll have to add some of those new Comtemptornators now asap. http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/TART...TOR_ARMOUR.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamwulf Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Those new Terminators cost twice as much, have half the detail, and are smaller then the current Terminators. They are not compatible with any of the current Terminator bits. In other words, you will be paying a whole lot of $$ for a proprietary squad that can only be upgrade/converted with future Forgeworld bits. No thanks, I'll stick to regular Terminators.

How did you get that they were smaller and less detailed? They actually have one standing next to the older ones... and they are the size with the same amount of details.

MithrilForge Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 @ OMG - i see,perhaps this vignette could be called "payback" i.e. one head for another :P anyways great lookin stuff so far,its hard waiting for more :pirate: mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadMek83 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Very impressive... just a side note, I always thought Orc blood was green due they're infected fungi and orcs are part of fungus, making them so hard to kill and easy to spread (orcish seed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlandMoonGuy Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 I always thought Orc blood was green due they're infected fungi I asked that very question earlier in the thread. The discussion pointed out that this detail has changed over the years and a green mash wouldn't have necessarily had the same impact at the red.

OwlandMoonGuy Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Good to see the brothers at Adepticon last weekend. Still haven't finished this guy. Haven't had much time for the hobby.

Chaplain Admetus Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Every time I think my Angels Sanguine are looking good, I keep coming across some of your stuff... if yours is fine art, mine is a drawing by a 3 year old stuck to a fridge. Looks absolutely fantastic, looking forward to seeing the finished product! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where you got that from. The FW Termies are the same size from the group I've got sat next to each other. In terms of price they're £36, compared to £28 for regular. That's not twice the price, it wouldn't even cover a set of FW shoulder pads. Lastly in terms of detail I can tell you these models are outstanding, and I've far prefered painting them to any other termie mdels, barring space hulk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demoulius Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 am i the only one whos slightly suspicious OMG here paints that ork better then the majority of ork players paint their armies that ive seen around? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnorriSnorrison Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Good progress, great work so far. :D Out of curiosity, how do you do your black over white? Is it more of a dark grey glaze, or several layers of black until you build up the highlights again? It's looking very good and I'd like to know how much work you've put in there. :P Snorri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the allure of the brute is a strong allure, in a brutish kinda way. Out of curiosity, how do you do your black over white? Is it more of a dark grey glaze, or several layers of black until you build up the highlights again? It's looking very good and I'd like to know how much work you've put in there. I'm really a big cheater when it comes to painting. You might ask why as it doesn't seem to help put armies on the table any faster. :P I start with a slightly thinned down mix of a slightly toned down black, i.e. 1:1 black & dark grey, over the white to give me a "natural" highlight. As in the thinner paint naturally sinks into the recesses which allows the white undercoat to show through at the edges. I still go back over and highlight but this approach has started to do the work for me. Likewise, I try to combine the look of highlights & weathering which I think provides a nicer affect than trying to do each separately. Especially with black, highlights often appear fake especially if you use a thick contrasting line along all your raised edges. That just looks fake to me. Of course, I darken the recesses as well with a pure BLACK shade so the overall effect doesn't come off like a charcoal grey. Over highlighting detracts form the fact that ultimately you want the surface to look black in the end result. That's about it really.

Although you consider yourself a 'big cheater when it comes to painting', it would probably be too much work for my planned DC. :) Cheers!
