The Sound of Machines Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 Haha - possibly yeah. I dunno, I like it when it caps out, it's only for a week, but it is a little annoying. Just check back in a few days :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266714-the-sound-of-machines-commission-painting-thread/page/5/#findComment-3492949 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sound of Machines Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 They come up alright for 45 mins each. I'm happy, and so's the guy paying the bills!

The Sound of Machines Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Here are some more UMs, 45 mins each. The oil paints I've been using show up on the photos, but they're really not as dirty as they appear. Just some residual film from the solvent perhaps. http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss222/DerekStrontium/Ultramarines/DSC01483_zps91b8f0c7.jpg http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss222/DerekStrontium/Ultramarines/DSC01484_zps64333999.jpg http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss222/DerekStrontium/Ultramarines/DSC01477_zps8daf08bb.jpg Cheers!

Quixus Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 The Troublesome Fourth! Very nice paint job. Wouldn't a lightning claw accompany the power fist better than a power sword?

The Sound of Machines Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 You're talking rules now mate, which I know nothing about. The guy these are for is a player, but he's much more into the "coolness" and fluff. I imagine that's how that combo has happened.

Quixus Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 It's rules as well as aesthetics IMHO. I think two large hands look better than a large one and a small one with a sword, even if one hand is clawed and the other is not.

Brother Ambroz Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 The Space Hulk termies look really nice, my only nitpick would be the gun barrels not being drilled.

Quixus Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Very nice Ultramarines, but please drill the barrels or at least put two black dots on the front of the stormbolters. Are the sergeants twins? ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266714-the-sound-of-machines-commission-painting-thread/page/5/#findComment-3518497 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sound of Machines Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 You're asking us to deliver something that the customer doesn't want? Sounds like a bad business practice to me :) Yes it can look better, and yes we have a small amount of input to what we deliver - but I can assure you the argument I'd be making would be for anything other than painting more bleeding Ultramarines over drilling barrels. These units are to match a larger army which is already painted - I am assuming the barrels aren't drilled in those models either, or he'd have asked for it.

Quixus Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 If you cleared it with the customer, forget I said anything. That large metallic chunk at the front end of the storm bolters just looks weird IMHO.

The Sound of Machines Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 I do agree mate, but it all takes time and that sort of detail is usually the first thing to go when trying to work a quote down. Your point is most valid, but we just do what we're told - and putting in unpaid time isn't an option, otherwise it's back to being a hobby and not a business. Cheers!
