Vourne Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Here's some WIP's from my Salamanders 2nd Company. Been a while since I did any more work on them. Hope to get them fished soon. The Dreadnought is about 90% finished though. http://s10.postimage.org/d77jld9ix/Tac_squad_final_resize.jpg http://s15.postimage.org/m1rxzqbzf/Dread_resize_1.jpghttp://s14.postimage.org/4fip8kwpd/Dread_resize_2.jpg http://s10.postimage.org/boc5ge2yh/Dread_resize_3.jpghttp://s13.postimage.org/8og11k4jr/Dread_resize_4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawain Veteris Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Excellent work brother! Your Salamanders are some of the finest I've seen. Keep it up! GV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messor Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Great job. Your dreadnought has really encouraged me to try out weathering, it looks excellent, though it contrasts starkly with the crispness of the marines (Not necessarily a bad thing. I don't think I would ever go as far as weathering individual marines). Salamanders are one of my favorites, so I'm really looking forward to seeing more!

SickSix Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Great job! I am thinking about doing a Heresy era Salamanders force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vourne Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Thank you for the kind comments. I agree the Dreadnought does does have a more muted tone to it. The Dread has had quite a few coats of watered down ink to give it a more grimy and weathered look. I'm undecided as to how far to go with the weathering on the marines. I do want to do some on them in order for them to fit in with the over all feel of the army, hopefully I'll be able to give them enough of a battle scarred appearance with out going over the top. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhorse Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Wow, excellent salamanders! Did you spray base coat them with an army painter color? Are you planning on weathering the marines? They don't really mesh well with the dreadnought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vourne Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yes I do plan to weather the marines, as compared to the Dreadnought they look they they just came fresh of the production line. I always do my shading and highlighting before I apply any weathering and battle damage. I firstly under coated them with Citadel Chaos black spray, and then using an airbrush I sprayed 2 thin coats Snot Green/Warpstone Glow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
