Rune Priest Ridcully Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Good light, and try and put it in front of a piece of paper (I'm not a professional photographer so I don't have a fancy photobox or fancy camera :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PipX Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 So I got my DV set in and I have a model semi finished. It takes me a week to make the bases, as it's very involved, but for now I have this guy as a test for my scheme: http://i48.tinypic.com/ic8ohy.jpg http://i48.tinypic.com/7260w8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Looking awesome bro! I wasn't sure about the colour scheme to start with but it looks pretty good on that chosen. Can't wait for more :P Ps. have you put gloss varnish on the armour? It looks really shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for more :P Ps. have you put gloss varnish on the armour? It looks really shiny. I totally cheat with army painter dark tone. I need to find a good brush on matte varnish, I bought some Delta Ceramcoat but it doesn't really give a matte finish, still semi-gloss. When I was doing him at first the silver was kinda meh, but once it got the treatment it came together pretty well. I think champions will have tin bits trim to separate them out. I am hoping if they redo berserkers they have ornate armor like this so I can convert my rank and file marines to be similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caffeineated Chaos Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Can't find my real camera and I'm supposed to be going underway tomorrow for a week and a half, as soon as I get back and find my real camera I'll post a better pic. But for now I have to use my phone's crappy camera. But I am finished at least: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Made it! I present to the Dark Gods, one THousand Sons Test paint! I've left the eyes black intentionally, I think it make it look more like an automation! http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/1k-son-front.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/1k-son-right.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/1k-son-left.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Cyanide Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Caffeinated Chaos: Pics are actually pretty easy. I'll take a picture of my photo set up when I get home tonight, but It's literally a white piece of paper against a wall, and the room light on above! Those were also taken with my Camera phone, you just need to get enough light on the mini to make the photos turn out good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ammonius Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Ok, I just got some new lights (the tent is supposed to arrive tomorrow) so I took some pictures with them. The eyes are gold, and I moved the lights until I got the results below. Behold, a Deprecator! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seams quite hard to try and recreate but looks stuning on your model. I know that I may be a late entrant but I think I might produce DV power fist chosen by evening.

chaplainmikey Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I think it's safe to say i've failed as its nearly half 11 here and i've managed to do the purple basecaot on my Chosen Champ and I highly doubt i'll finish him unless i'm suddenly gifted with the power to paint 4-5 hrs worth or model in 30 mins. I blame FW and thier Angron model! :) Ammonius- I really like that scheme and the model looks very intimidating! Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Ridcully Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Well it's been my mum's birthday, so been busy all day between that and work, but have literally just finished, and so I do present, Brother Suhtosis of the Thousand sons, of Squad Ptolemy, 7th company. Woot, 17 minuets to spare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungicats Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Tah Dah..finished! Well enough to post b/c they're never really finished are they? As always C/C appreciated and welcomed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Aznable Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Not really happy with how this guy turned out, but I did rush him through in just two hours. He'll probably look better once he's dried and based, but he's a bench rider most of the time anyway. I will most likely strip him and redo him when it comes time to do his whole squad, but for now he's painted and thus represents the challenge completed. I have done better...
