RazakelXIII Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I absolutely cannot get enough of that green. The heavy weathering looks fantastic as well. Mindblowing painting, can't wait to see what you do with the World Eaters.

sheep Posted August 22, 2013 Author Share Posted August 22, 2013 Thanks guys :) I started an Ad mech log that got eaten by the forum reset, but since then I've done some more sons, so I'll show them first before I try to get motivated to start another log. These guys aren't for me unfortunately, they are a commission for a guy from the US. I hope he likes them. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorTerminator6_zpsaeb6b8c0.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorTerminator3_zps2d168467.jpg FW sent through some very nice casts, though I didn't realise til I painted the face that the right eye of the terminator was miscast, so I turned it into a scar, and in a first for me, the swords were all straight! No hot water required. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorTerminator4_zpsfba205c6.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorTerminator2_zps26b6dba2.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorTerminator1_zpsd4277e64.jpg The bases are from Dragon-forge, and were quite nicely cast too. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorPowerArmour1_zpsfeac13a4.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorPowerArmour3_zpscae77094.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorPowerArmour5_zpsa479f576.jpg Following my normal tradition of taking poo photos though the bases and gold lack depth in the shots, I really need to set up a proper photo booth. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorPowerArmour8_zpsd5c40b5e.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Commisions/PraetorPowerArmour6_zpsdffdb471.jpg What do you think of the base colour? Should I change mine from the urban to this? I kind of like how the sea green pops off the base. Thanks for looking.

Tyrannicide Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 A shame these are commissioned, as I want more! One lucky dude for sure. A while back I asked you for your gold recipe via PM, I have the paints but can't recall the exact process. Was it Vallejo Liquid Gold - Old Gold, followed by a wash of Devlan Mud/Badab Black, and edge highlighted with Chainmail? That sounds about right to me. Would you be able to elaborate? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254518-sons-of-horus-once-more-into-the-breach/page/5/#findComment-3431819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jealousy aside, these are incredible Don't let it weigh you down and make you want to quit. Look at it as a something to inspire you and push your abilities so that you can produce something like that in time.

sheep Posted August 23, 2013 Author Share Posted August 23, 2013 Thanks gents, glad you all like them so much :) sorry to dissuade you bass wave, like kage said, I hope they inspire you to try, I didn't start off painting like this, I had to practice ALOT! Potato: you got the paints right, I laid the base of old gold, Devlan wash, shining gold highlight, and then a shining gold/chain mail, then a black wash in the crevasses. Ludovic: I will be doing them concurrently I think :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254518-sons-of-horus-once-more-into-the-breach/page/5/#findComment-3432808 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheep Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 Hi again guys, some more work has been done on my sons, and their allies. . . . These guys are are all done up to the oils stage which will define all the armour plates alot more. Firstly, the Azreal counts as: http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/SoHAzrealCA_zps79ead9a4.jpg Second is some apothecaries, after the oils I'll add some more blood to their armour, removing progenoids can be a messy business. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/SoHApothecaries_zps7f47d3a7.jpg Next is my take on the Worldeaters, which I'll be using as assault marines, they'll all be getting MkIV jumppacks and butchers nails markings. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/WEWIP_zps2713cf9b.jpg In the vein of the WE's, the Sgt for the squad, or some kind of preator if the WE section gets out of hand. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/WEWIP2_zpscb7bb0d4.jpg Finally . . . . . http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/Sheep_06/Sons%20of%20Horus/NLWIP_zps41dc3447.jpg Thanks for looking.

death given form Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Going to hazard a guess and say they're from Captain Sicarius, slightly converted to remove the Ultra symbols. Looking good Sheep, although I feel like the white armor could use a little more depth.

spu00sed Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Love the world eater dude Can't decide if it looks like he has taken his helmet off to gloat or has pulled the head out of the helmet to gloat All I know Is that he is awesome.

sheep Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 Thanks gents :) Those are awesome Sheep! Loving that Night Lords head! Coming from the current lord of Nightlords that high praise indeed :) Thankyou Where are the headplumes on those SofH from? Modified Capt Sicarius plumes as deathgivenform said :) Going to hazard a guess and say they're from Captain Sicarius, slightly converted to remove the Ultra symbols. Looking good Sheep, although I feel like the white armor could use a little more depth. Good guess mate, right on the money. As I said in the post, all of them still need their oil washes, so that'll add some depth to the white. Love the world eater dudeCan't decide if it looks like he has taken his helmet off to gloator has pulled the head out of the helmet to gloatAll I know Is that he is awesome. The latter option :) His Mk IV helm is mag locked to his belt. I'm not sure which legion to paint the vanquished officer from, Iron hands or salamanders? Fantastic stuff mate! Cheers mate, good to see you're still around :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254518-sons-of-horus-once-more-into-the-breach/page/5/#findComment-3498972 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Chaplain Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Fantastic models brother sheep, looking forward to seeing more from you. Those praetors are excellent, I'm sure your client will be pleased! How did you achieve the cross chest strap on the Azreal counts as? And on a side note- thanks for answering my questions regarding the stormraven over on Dakkadakka; I didn't realize you were a member here as well!

sheep Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 Hey mate :) Nice to see you here too. How could I not have a thread here, its space marine Nirvana after all The chest strap is made from plasticard, .25mm from memory theres a WIP shot in post #99 > http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254518-sons-of-horus-once-more-into-the-breach/page-4?do=findComment&comment=3291389 The details were made from plasticard too. I just glued a smaller strip on top, once it had dried I drilled the holes and then glued the belt closure in the appropriate place made from .2mm plastic rod. Hope that helps.
