EdT Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Hi all, Over the past few months I've been making various Marines, mostly pre-heresy, as the mood strikes me. I thought this thread might be a nice place to post some of them, particularly as my new phone seems to have a decent camera (although decent enough to show up all the painting mistakes, so it's a mixed blessing... ) Anyhow, the first set are a group of Thousand Sons. I particularly enjoyed doing the tutelaries for these guys; the one on the Sorceror is my favourite. I also really liked how the High Elf Archer crescent moons add a certain something to their helmets. Hope you like them! They're not painted to the best standard but I am (gradually) improving, and they look alright in person. After these, I'll post the Space Wolves they're up against.... So, a Sorceror, engaged in summoning up something rather unsavoury... And then three friends of his, all with their helpful spectral friends. And finally, a group shot.

Firepower Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Drybrushing (at least I think it's drybrushing) is obviously working quite well for you on the bases and tutels, but the armor is in need of some highlights and depth. I'd start with a wash and then do some highlights and cleaning up. Are they really a pinkish red, or is that just the lighting? I always thought they were more or less scarlet.

Tyrannicide Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I love the Sorcerer. I could do without the giant skull, but these are very creative! However, I agree with Firepower - the armor could use some more highlighting, washes, etc. Very cool stuff though. Hope to see more from you. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273349-the-burning-of-prospero/#findComment-3337341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Nice work. The tutelaries and a great use of bitz! And those helm crests are from High Elg archers, you say? I'll have to look into that if I go back to my 1kSons. Where did you get or how did you make the canopic jar at the sorceror's belt? Got more to show us?

Dark Scipio Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Firepower is right. And I would like to see more of that. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273349-the-burning-of-prospero/#findComment-3337884 Share on other sites More sharing options...
