some bits are WIP the terminator squads are done and im currently painting the dark vengance terminators and the characters from the box aswell

 

all comments welcome and ill be up dating this as i go .

hi thanks guys , i really enjoying getting this army together , i really wanted to capture a battle worn look on the deathwing which i think im achieving but a main thing i wanted to do to bring the model to life was the bases, and i decided on a nice city ruin.

 

the bases were really easy to do i basically put a blob of polly filler onto the base spread it out and the started to put spare bits of building from different scenery parts, but i also used the bottom of the gw movement trays to make a paving stone like effect.

The terminators and the LR are truly superb! However, drybrush on the tacticals shows a little bit too much for my tastes. Maybe a glaze or two would help to hide the brushstrokes? I also suspect that the drybrush might be so visible due to flash. All in all, I'd be more than happy if every army in the world would be painted to such level :jaw:

cheers for the great comments guys it always nice and spures me on to do more , currently im painting up the libby and captin from the dv box set ill get some pics up soon but i also just built my ravenwing yay

 

how they look on the bases i built for them

On the overview shot they don't look like much...but man in the close ups they are devastatingly superb! The weathering on the Deathwing terminators and the landraider is absolutley excellent. need I say much about the bases either. Real nice work.....

 

 

... and since you are doing some painting may i invite you to join your devoted battle brothers on their walk down the Path to Redemption?

Welcome to the Rock! I agree, that Spartan looks boss! and the the Deathwing, brutal! your bases are nice BTW. I am however a huge fan of Greenwing! I love me some gritty marines! well done, you are an excellent addition to the hunt for the Fallen.

cheers guys im glad to be here ive been on a few different forums and i must say this is the best one , some great and helpful comments.

 

im a big fan of greenwing also furioso-prime and am looking at building a complete company, so far i have 4 tactical squads and a dev squad all built and ready to paint so will be going onto them very soon once ive completed my captain and libby.

I really like the weathering on the Terminators :)

Cypher 89, got to give you a big :tu: Very nice job on your Marines. I really like you detail added bases and the assistance to a theme it gives to the units. With several different paint schemes, sometimes it's hard to draw everything together to look like it all belongs, but your bases help do that for you.

 

I have to agree with Finn, the first couple of battle company squads look a little splotchy, probably because of the dry-brushing, which looks like it may have actually been over-brushing instead. I'll echo the glaze suggestion to help tone that down some. However, your last pic of the DV Tact squad doesn't have that same appearance and looks very nice, so it could just be a trick of the flash in those first couple of photos.

 

I do really like the battle damage you've given to the Deathwing, it really enhances the models without making them look abused. Very cool! I also like your Spartan, the tank looks bad-:D in Deathwing colors, you've done a really nice job with it. Your reds on your Tact squads also looks very nice and rich as well.

Yeah, but you aren't offering franchise opportunities...
