Validar Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 a very fine paintjob indeed. The edge of your base appears brown, but I'm sure it is nice and black IRL :D The relic falling from his back banner look like it could use some love, but the banner in itself is very nice.

Nightpaw Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Hi there, any chance to get a better picture of this guy? This one is a bit too dark to see the details. Maybee you could take a picture in bright daylight outdoors? Kind regards N.

GhostLegion Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 while i really really dont like ultramarines that much, i have to say i do love the attention you paid to the flesh tone here. very nicely done and ties in well with the darker blue armor. nice presentation all around i say.
