Honda Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Wow Squeaky, things just keep getting better and better. I've been meaning to tell you that the energy you have imputed in your poses really animates the individual poses, but what keeps attracting my eye is the very subtle use of teals and purple as spot color. It's very faded/weathered and doesn't steal the show away from your base colors, yet is still very distinctive looking. Very impressive effort. P.S. I was going to send the shark, but he was busy making water colors. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeaky Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 @ Honda: thanks man. yeh that's exactly what I was going for didn't want to over power the grey which is easily done Awww bet it's a master piece Tell sharky I said hi.Thanks everyone can't believe all the responses over 101 now!http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/armenatoyan/default/43-shark-memes-shark-week--large-msg-131232912672.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Looks freakin' sweet so far, buddy! Falcata is my favorite by far ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SincaiN Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I understand .. the fun of progression usually means you have to go back and update all your older models to match haha.. but worth it ... keep up the inspired work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeaky Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 @Flint: Thanks I'm not sure who my favourite is yet will probably be Triakis (swapped names about) or maybe Mokarran... but that means painting and finishing them xD @SincaiN: Yeh it will be worth it, or that's what I say to stop me breaking down and rocking back and forth in the corner at least So I'm not just bumping this up the list I'll add a small update and a few planned names for my Sternguard. Crataeis Trienus Adrasteia Skylax Kharybdis Taninim Kaitiaki and Proteus will be the squad leader 2 more and I've got my sternguard. Edit: Oh If you google most of these you'll find out that most are female greek sea monsters... which is probably a bad idea for male characters but their so cool Kaitiaki is moari for guardian and Proteus is a god of the sea/rivers. Triakis http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j195/Holy_Milkman/DSC_0205_zps7fd2680f.jpg Morkarran http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j195/Holy_Milkman/DSC_0206_zps48172b59.jpg http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j195/Holy_Milkman/DSC_0207_zps96475599.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeaky Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Thanks deathspectre :) and yeh forte well all the vanguard have magnetised arms so I can run them with anything all that's left before I prime and paint is gap filling and a few extra sharks and teeth in a few places :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 So nice to hear the phrase "gap filling". Batch building often leaves that stage out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeaky Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 @forte: I looked back at my old tac squads and a few other models and thought wow that's a deep arm pit or what happened to his hip, il call him rayman from now on lol. @Sincain: thanks mate no idea of the artist but nice to see the storm lords? Get some love carinifex love mind you... Right my first vow and in my defence I didn't deliberately make them so costly just to beef up the angels of deaths points not at all..... I Squeaky answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete Captian and Vanguard from Codex Space Marine of total value Captian:- 170pts (Storm shield,thunder hammer, artificer armour, jump pack) Vanguard 240pts (5x jump packs, 4x storm shields, 4x power weapons, pair of lighting claws) on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to Carcharodons Astra and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end Right an actual question does is look pants or is it me? Well cartoony? I may just drop it completely (the shark on his chest? And paint some moari stuff instead? Or maybe make the shark less organic? http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j195/Holy_Milkman/e3411060-7227-4901-b6c9-e8eddd2749c8_zps3b1933d9.jpg Thanks for any suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argent aquila Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Those vanguard marines are spectacularly well done! What models provided the helmets and chest pieces??? And for the chest, go Maori symbols, makes the shark stick out more whenever it's used. IMO, because they'll be more striking and noticeable.Have to keep a balance between them... If that makes sense? More please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
