Bionicknees Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 http://i759.photobucket.com/albums/xx238/Bionicknees/captain1_zps1ada11c8.jpg Got myself through the christmas cold painting this fella, not really finished with him yet but was musing starting a army with this dude as a commander. So that was my News years resolution, but even with the best intentions a army is never gonna happen. or will it..... So kept myself to gaming standard paint job just in case I do muster the strength to give him some brothers and sisters.

Mahoo Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 As awesome as he looks, some parts feel quite bare to me.Particularly the legs, top of the shield and the centre of the shoulder pads.Some extra swirls would sort that out though, Damn nice work Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286023-space-marine-commander/#findComment-3577473 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Really Nice, like the shading but have to agree with Mahoo it is alittle bare in spots.

ferrus Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Very nice. I like the subtle, under stated look myself Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286023-space-marine-commander/#findComment-3577568 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortysl Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 It a thing of beauty. If this is your gaming standard it would be a crying shame if it didn't become a fully fledged army.

LordOrdGermany Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I like the style. This man looks experienced! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286023-space-marine-commander/#findComment-3578375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Caloth Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I wish i had the hand control to do that kind of scroll work... the blending is amazing. And i disagree, i don't think the model feels bare at all. The minimalist additions actually add a touch of class all of it's own. I wish i could watch and learn some of your techniques Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286023-space-marine-commander/#findComment-3578465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astartes-ULTRA Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Unadornment is generally quite un astartes-like especially for ranking individuals, thats said the simplicity of your chosen design and the smooth armour painting is a quality of its own and I tip my hat to you brother. Great looking, smooth and with beautiful arty brush-work here and there is often prominent in Eldar vehicles and it's interesting to see how a space marine would look when painted with those techniques. I second the desire to see an enture army of these!

Aegnor Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Astartes-Ultra, I was going to say it's an almost Eldar like paint scheme - no offence intended to the SM Commander or OP! It is beautifully done. My initial reaction was that it was a bit bare, but that may just be that me judging by what I'm accustomed to seeing - on second and third looks, it was not as strong a reaction. Well done on doing something quite different. What is the source of the spear he is holding?

Monstra Sumus Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Gaming standard he says. Typical. Fantastic work man. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286023-space-marine-commander/#findComment-3581320 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Outstanding. Don't feel pressured to change the spartan, bare look he has going on, it sets him apart from a lot of other Chapters and dare I say it actually makes him look a little more realistic - I sometimes have a hard time believing all the crap SM commanders seem to carry around on their person (talking purely about bling of course). My one constructive crit, and it is tiny, is that the pillar in the rearground has a slightly monotone look that makes it look a bit plastic. Some exaggerated shadows between the stones, cracks and highlights would fix this instantly I think. I really hope you get the time to do at least a kill team of these guys - really great work.
