appiah4 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 EDIT: Updated photos in Post 7 This is my first attempt at painting an HQ. I always liked Tycho and had this figure for a long time. A bit of contemplation and about a week's modelling and painting, and this is what I made of it so far. http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads...3_6215_2408.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._6215_48153.jpg What do you think? The cape, face and bolter are as of yet unfinished but all the rest, I think, are as good as I can get.. Not a great painter, I am :lol: That's why I'd really appreciate all advice as to how to proceed from here. P.S. The weapon hand is magnetized so I can actually swap it for a power falchion or a thunder hammer should I so wish. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vharing Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I think that you picked a great modal to use. I wish I had waited to scratch build my own until seeing yours. The painting is coming along nicely too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCommanderSamirus Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Great model, both the conversion and painting. I really like it. -Samirus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGPO Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Very much like the conversion and the painting is pretty good too. Only improvement I would like to see is the eyes and teeth being done. The face is a big focal point especially for a commander. Given your work on the gems it shouldn't present too much of a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appiah4 Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Update: Pretty much everything except the cape and the two gems at the belt buckle (I'll paint them green) are finished. If there's anything else you think should be done, now's a good time to say it ;) http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads...3_6215_8662.jpg http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads...6215_157573.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
