Kierdale Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Nice custom job! If I can offer some advice, how about some dark grey highlights on the black armour, followed by a black wash over the black and silver areas. A Baal Red/Carroburg Crimson wash on the red cloak will give it some depth, and either a brown or sepia wash on the gold areas will make them look better. What're you planning for the base?

Black Templar 307th Comp. Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Every time I try highlights it looks bad, I have some fine motor problems from concussion damage, so my steadiness of hand is hit and miss. There's a fine layer of dry-brushing on the edges but it doesn't show up in the pic. I do like the idea of the washes. Which one of those reds is the current color? Oh and I need to touch up those arm joins with black.

Kierdale Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Which one of those reds is the current color? Carroburg Crimson is the red wash in the new range of paints, Baal Red is the old equivalent. An Agrax Earthshade (new range) wash would really help the gold. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251178-custom-emperors-champion/#findComment-3044992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimdarkness Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 You might want to add some vows or oaths to brake up all that black he looks a little black legion right now.

Black Templar 307th Comp. Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Do you mean in the way of purity seals, or did you have something else in mind?

Dark Scipio Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Good start. You need more water in your paints. To much gold, to less white for my taste. And I dont think Grey Knight Weapons fits Templars or are a worthy alternative for a black sword.
