outrider Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Thought I share my work for some constructive criticism. Hope it gives you some ideas. My army is mainly inspired by Warzone's Imperial Trenchers. I wanted my basic troopers to look 1st WW style with trenchcoats and gas masks. For Veterans I decided to go modern, more like comandoes with cammo cloaks and shotguns for close quaters. Army is Chimera mounted with Vendetta and artilery support. I'm still looking for a good colour scheme based on red and brown.

Grotsmasha Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I'm sold. They're going to look the buis-neesss when finished. Cheers, Jono Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/270700-trenchers/#findComment-3297226 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I think they look good. I'm not completely certain, though - in the future, when taking photographs, I'd suggest trying to take them against a white background while using a spot light. A desk lamp is good, and it's easy enough to just hold a sheet of paper behind the models. Especially when you're using dark plastic.

outrider Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Dark backround and shorter exposure time allows you to see resin elements with some clarity. I will post them again once painted, which will be a while. Any ideas for red colour scheme?

Hard to say without being able to see the cut of their uniforms, but perhaps red on the large areas, with black raised edges and yellow recessed areas? Black or red caps.

ghosty Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Did you cast those Trencher parts yourself? I'd love to get my hands on a few of those blood berets heads.

outrider Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 Except for GW parts I've sculpted all the bits myself from scratch. Casting is just a necessity for a large army like that. As for beret heads, if you don't need too many of them, why not try to make them yourself? You could use helmetless heads and gas masks from comand squad. This would limit the amount of sculpting to berets only, which aren't very hard to do.
