Raztalin's PLOG (pic heavy)

[Nemac Vradon]

Looking good dude!

 

I know I said originally to do silver studs but looking at it now with the base colours down, I would like to change my mind :D. I think red studs would look very cool, especially as your chapter symbol is in red and you have the Caliban Green on the tabard. That would definatley make them pop - Like Consecrators, I believe Captain Semper has a very nice Consecrators army if you wanted to see how it looks first? I couldn't find the thread myself but maybe this helps - Dark Rage's Consecrators :tu:

 

Keep it coming buddy!

Red! All over. Looks great for the consecrators, I have no doubt you can pull it off

 

Aside from that, I could've sworn I was following your thread. I don't know why I've never commented on your work. That terminator chaplain of yours in particular is pure badass

The link is in my sig. Nowhere close to Dark Rage's quality though.

Thanks Cap! I looked everywhere bar your signature :wallbash:

[Captain Semper]

:p

[Epher]

It looks like there is minimalnred on your models. They are just on the shoulder pad markings, right? Where you have a lot of silver components to the paint scheme the silver studs on the legs work well. I also think theylt the studs on the shoulder pad should be red to add some balance. The ones on the legs could be res too but I would keep them silver.

 

Good looking minis!

[Raztalin]

Cheers guys. If I could achieve what Cpt. and or Dark have then I'd be chuffed!!

 

Epher, I agree. I'll keep the studs on the legs silver, and just do the shoulders in red. Hopefully it won't be over kill. The test mini from the Dev set had red on each shoulder which I think is a little ott, and really what got me second guessing. But the studs are not just one large symbol so should hopefully just add something to break up the main colours.

 

Thanks for the feed back ya'll! Much appreciated.

[Nemac Vradon]

Sounds good dude, can't wait to see what you com up with :tu:

Its not much of an update but its an update non the less.  The weather was glorious, and I wanted to take the opportunity to get some pics under natural light.  It was so damn bright this weekend!!

 

What it did do is give a list of things to fix!!

 

Pic link died

 

I did get some of the touch up done last night, but by then the light had faded. 

 

Hope to have all the edge highlighting done on the squad this week - then bases next weekend.

 

Any C & C welcome

 

Cheers

BEautifull sergeant Brother!

 

Nice hightlights ;)

[Epher]

That is a fine looking sergeant!  I am a fan of the loadout!  He looks very mean.

[Nemac Vradon]

Looking excellent dude! The black on the armour is fantastic and the green on the tabard looks really deep.

[Raztalin]

Thanks peeps, appreciate it.

 

OK so I glued all the arms on last night and did some touch ups:

Once dry i removed them ready to be based (and added the head for the Flamer marine):

Which i will have hopefully achived by the end of the week

 

With any luck the next pics will be these based (do they need to be based to be accepted as a finished entry for ETL?), and the next 5 ready to roll!!

I really can't wait to bring teachings of Lorgar to these ignorant fools! :P On a serious note they are great mate, I think you definitely had the right idea with red studs on the shoulders and metal on the legs.

 

More please!

[Raztalin]

Cheers dude - i'll get basing the next 5 this eve, weather is good so they should dry quickly enough.

[Raztalin]

[Major_Gilbear]

Lovely crisp work - those DA Upgrade parts look really sharp! Nice one. :)

[Raztalin]

Cheers Major, yeah they really are lovely bits of kit.  I have 2 more packs now so can do the entire B@C set with them.

[Epher]

I don't know how I missed all of your pictures but your marine turned out great! The posing is very dynamic and I like how the flamer marine turned out.  I would say that he is my favorite out of the squad!

[Raztalin]

Thanks Epher, hopefully the second lot will compliment these, less static poses on them.

 

On the recomendation of our Brother Arkley i bought a light box from Amazon, Ive taken a couple of test pics so far and they look good, so will try get the squad pics taken this eve and upload them asap.  But England are playing this eve so they may get delayed lol

[Greenz]

These guys look awesome! Especially the marine with the flamer, he looks like he means business

[Lostrael]

They look great... scouring the ruins.. looking for something or someone.
