Alcatraz Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Hello there Brothers. Now as i had started a log earlier in the year on what was hopefully going to become a fully fledged White Scars army ran into major problems. Namely i can't paint white to save myself. So i decided to try a different Chapter. And looking through many sights i came across the Mantis Warriors. They had a fine colour scheme, good background and same the same lineage as the White Scars. Result. Also i have purchased the Dark Vengeance boxset, and after much time have decided to paint them as Iron Warriors. But they won't get painted for a week or two as i'm in the middle of the Mantis. Here are some pics Love the Forgeworld Commader and Apothecary http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1788.jpg Barrels will be drilled out http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1789.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1796.jpg These marines will be in a Rhino with my Librarian, which is being painted up at the moment http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/100_1769_zpsebdcd775.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/100_1768_zpscfd3fb23.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/100_1764_zpsf4d9dc27.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/100_1765_zpsf2200d40.jpg Soon i'll have some shots of the Librarian and other tactical squad Comments welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtype Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Well done Alcatraz. Did you use inks or a wash to create the shading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Colossus Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 They look really good. Looking forward to more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcatraz Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 I used a watered down Scorched Brown and then re did the armour. Then did some fine brown lining if i missed anything. Time to add some more quick shots of the Librarian and other tactical squad sarge. http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1792.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1793.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1794.jpg http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m499/drake-n/Project%20stuff/100_1795.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitsplitta Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Very nicely done Alkatraz. It's a real pleasure to see what you've done with your Mantis Warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
