RADU LYKAN Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 lol, lord strakenov not as awesome as i had hoped but here he is in the flesh(metal?) http://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo90/RADU_LYKAN/imperial%20guard/strakenundercoat_zpse3b0f0b3.jpg i have magnetised his foot so he can swap bases and trophy kills dependent on who i am playing against, only the carnifex head modelled so far. http://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo90/RADU_LYKAN/imperial%20guard/magnetfeetlol_zps16e08c58.jpg also lets him wall walk :) rest of my guard so far http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273734-imperial-guard-alcari-hellainian-regiments/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274339-straken/page/2/#findComment-3424968 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I like it! Where are those cybernetic parts from? He looks suitably gruff and unimpressed with the enemy (or gravity) :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274339-straken/page/2/#findComment-3424982 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hendrik Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 i think some shoulderpads would make him look much more menacing. have you tried bluetacking them on?

RADU LYKAN Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 WarriorFish- lol, it is already on my you tube playlist :) if the osl works then he will be getting a glowing eye as well, green not red however as when i get done with the blood on his face either that or the glow of a red eye would be lost Targetlock- pic? am aiming to get mine done for a competition on dakka, the ulimate badass, maybe enter yours as well? hendrik- surely any armour at all is for noobs/wimps? :) my straken only wears his flak vest because he likes the colour black, everyone looks cool in black :) plus the sight of his shiny metal man nipples might cause some problems amongst the sisters of battle :) grabbed a few seconds to do some work on straken, this will be my first ever attempt at osl so am probably going to be asking questions at every stage, what i am after here is advice on the size/area of glow, want input here as i dont want to go through in a blur and think he is finished only to have some one point out any flaws like why is/isnt there light in a specific spot when obviously there should/shouldnt beany way, heres as far as i got, should i extend the glow further towards the front of his left shin? should there be any glow on the right foot/shin?more than one pic for angleshttp://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo90/RADU_LYKAN/imperial%20guard/osls4wip_zpsc6adea51.jpg http://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo90/RADU_LYKAN/imperial%20guard/osls1wip_zpsa2568de2.jpg http://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo90/RADU_LYKAN/imperial%20guard/osls2wip_zpsf9342cf4.jpg http://i364.photobucket.com/albums/oo90/RADU_LYKAN/imperial%20guard/osls3wip_zps87bc1131.jpg any help greatly appreciated Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274339-straken/page/2/#findComment-3501986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I think you've got glow on the right places. Any more and I feel that it's throwing out too much light. I would, however, suggest adding (drybrushing perhaps) some lighter purple towards the middle of the plasma coils, and into the nearest protrusions/leading edges which catch the light on his leg.

RADU LYKAN Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 i know i need to add lighter colours, i just didnt want to have to go back and do the dark to light all over again because the glow wasnt in the right place to start with, thanksfor the input, thought i had the glowing area about right, will give it a while for anybody else to chip in then i will see about the next coat Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274339-straken/page/2/#findComment-3502115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I agree with Kier, the glow is fine but the coils need a bit more to pop :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274339-straken/page/2/#findComment-3502150 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicodemus Doloroso Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 That latest highlight really makes the plasma pistol "pop" I think it looks great and would not touch the pistol after this. I think some slight highlighting on the leg would be good. Just a little of that lighter colour on the raised bits closest to the pistol.
