skawolf Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) These pics are pretty awful, but here's what I have. The army is currently undergoing a re-paint as I painted most of it a loooong time ago and is not up to par anymore.

nimrod451 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Lovely Salamanders I did mine brighter, but i'm curious how did you do the gold? I really like the color its not as brassy as some but not obnoxiously gold either.. Cheers dude!

Toeko Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I didn't want to start a new topic for this so I felt this was an appropriate place to ask. I know the salamanders have a few "suspected" successors, but for a DIY project is a Salamanders successor considered taboo? or is it reasonable. thanks, -Toeko Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280220-salamanders-and-successors-army-showcase/#findComment-3492677 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a matter of figuring out where I put my camera in my recent move. @ I am Legion Thanks man, as I said in your thread your salamanders were an early inspiration for me to paint Sallies :D Edited October 11, 2013 by skawolf Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280220-salamanders-and-successors-army-showcase/#findComment-3492710 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimrod451 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Thought I'd throw my terminators in - need to take some better pictures of my tacticals.. last is on some terrain i made goofing off.. *edited since the pictures broke, i must not have been logged in when i looked before..* **thanks Bannus** Edited October 19, 2013 by nimrod451 Nocturne Noble 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280220-salamanders-and-successors-army-showcase/#findComment-3494430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
skawolf Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I like the bright green you have used on those terminators. I have always thought that sallies looked good in bright green, but have not been able to bring myself to painting them bright green. Not sure why that is Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280220-salamanders-and-successors-army-showcase/#findComment-3495046 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nimrod451 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 heh, Lots of the people I've talked to that i play with don't like it - I think it distinguishes them from Dark Angels though or Raptors or other Green Chapters. It looks nice on darker table tops though and seems to do okay as a display piece. I'm not the best painter but i like how they turned out, so thank you.

Brother Usabius Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) I personally think they look great. By the way, are those the fw sallie shoulder pads, and are the clothes around there legs made out of greenstuff or did you buy them somewhere?

nimrod451 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The shoulders are Forgeworld - its Pricy but I really like how they look.. I have them on almost everything salamander.. I think i probably should have done like just Sargent..but i dont spend money on much else other than Warhammer these days..so..heh. the drake hide is actually made by an ebay seller named Spellcrow (hope i dont break any rules) -they were perfect for what i was looking for.. ..and thanks.
