Razblood Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Here he is, the one & only Brother Castiel of the Dark Angels. Should I do a DA army in the near future?

chaplainmikey Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Very nice, the robe is spot-on. :) Not a fan of the base though. Should I do a DA army in the near future? Are you asking us or trying to convince yourself? ;) Have a good look at the Dark Vengence set. I'm sure that will help with making your mind up. Mike.

Razblood Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 The base does need some tidying up :P I'm just not sure whether to do Templars or DA tbh need to knock up a Templar test scheme and then decide, but I am seeking opinions as to whether the scheme looks good enough. Cheers for the comment though ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/263093-the-solitary-hunt/#findComment-3205396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor Engel Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I'm just not sure whether to do Templars or DA tbh need to knock up a Templar test scheme and then decide, but I am seeking opinions as to whether the scheme looks good enough. Templars get really boring to paint, really fast IMHO. With Deathwing, Ravenwing and all the robes, Dark Angels offer a lot of variety to keep one challenged and interested, plus you get a MASSIVE head start with the Dark Vengeance box (and even more if you trade someone Chaos for DA!) My only critique on your model might be a little bit of water added to your paints and a matte varnish. He looks very shiny right now, but that could be the flash. :) A nice start - I say go Jonson!

Razblood Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 The armour does have a very slight gloss to it due to the Green I had to improv in lieu of DA/Caliban Green,but it is heavily accentuated by the flash and I thin my paints quite a lot, just I sometimes work in too many layers (the Green ended up being about 8-9 layers of paint and ink combined in order to look right :tu: ). Once I get hold of Dark Vengeance I'll make my final choice, but your advice has been taken onboard and I am leaning more towards a small DA force ^_^ although I do have a quick and dirty scheme for Black....so I may make them Pre-Heresy/Heresy era if I can't find a quicker way of doing the Green that I like. Cheers for the comments guys ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/263093-the-solitary-hunt/#findComment-3209678 Share on other sites More sharing options...
