Das Bee Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Initial shot of the predator, marshal, chaplain, and 7 neophytes I vowed so far... LRC and Termies pending, sorry for the abysmal picture quality on this one! http://i.imgur.com/Jo0law7h.jpg And completion shots of the predator and neophytes: http://i.imgur.com/hLIyHqGh.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/ZRQLwoYh.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/pvKszVEh.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277184-das-bees-etl-ii-progress/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andhil Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Wow, that's some amazing painting, Brother! Very high quality! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277184-das-bees-etl-ii-progress/#findComment-3399010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Very nice, especially love the predator! It is painted very clean/neatly yet with subtle weathering, props! Neophytes look good too and somehow I love the gold painted chest eagles, 'normal' GW gold? (and 2 neo's dont have static grass, intentional? :P) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277184-das-bees-etl-ii-progress/#findComment-3399095 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Very nice painting and I agree with the above sentiments on the Predator, it's very sweet looking. I like your skin tones as well, how did you accomplish that effect? Onwards Brother!

Das Bee Posted June 22, 2013 Author Share Posted June 22, 2013 Thanks, brothers! Its not actually GW gold on the neos, some stuff called Game Color that I picked up years ago. I did a base coat of brown under it too, which seems to give a pretty decent shadow for the recesses. For the faces I did a basecoat of scorched brown and applied layers mixed with more and more bleached bone on top of it (letting some of the darker colors show through as necessary). Also the 2 neos without static grass was intentional :p I thought it might mix things up a bit, but maybe it actually looks kinda weird?

Haha yea they kinda look unfinished... ! :p You can add just a little pinch of grass if you want to mix it up.

Krikey Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Wow, huge difference on that LRC! I like the improved colors and technique. I particularly like the new creamy white. It has a lot of character. ~K Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277184-das-bees-etl-ii-progress/#findComment-3418590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Wow, the Killer Bees are here! I really like your Marshal, I foresee a similarly equipped figure in my crusade at some point. The LR is just brilliant. Well done! Onwards! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/277184-das-bees-etl-ii-progress/#findComment-3419211 Share on other sites More sharing options...
