Grim Dog Studios Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Love the Champion, I've had a similar idea swimming around in my head since seeing that MK 2 command kit and you've created it perfectly. I might be borrowing that one for myself! Is the terminator made from Calas Typhon?

Terimus Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Very nice! I'm really loving the pose on the Champ! My brother would be jealous (he play's pre-heresy Raven Guard)! Nice job, keep posting!

TearsOfTheRaven Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 The terminator is inded made from the calas typhon model. I felt guilty at butchering such a bueatifull and expensive model.

KBA Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Awesome! Good on you to have the balls to chop chop chop an expensive model.

TearsOfTheRaven Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Thanks for the kind words. Oddly enough, one of the highlights of the model for me was the amazingly sculpted base that comes with it.

TearsOfTheRaven Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 UPDATE SHERIDAN Just a small update, started on the base (first time using the new technical paints) added some brass on the back of the model to break up all the steel parts and added a few more (thinned) coats of wolf grey to the white parts: http://i.imgur.com/wplJD0j.jpg http://i.imgur.com/0bqUiuB.jpg http://i.imgur.com/rqJHryH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/R5vxX66.jpg All c+c is appreciated and needed, as it helps me to improve.

Hyaenidae Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Mix some light blue or light grey in with your white, man. Just enough for the shade to become an off-white. It makes the white a bit smoother, and you will be able to use pure white as a highlight color. Water down you black wash as well, and only wash it into crevices and recesses, not the whole section of white. Keep on keeping on, brother. Looking good so far.

TearsOfTheRaven Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 How would you recommened going around building squads of: 1, shadow wardens 2, shadow masters 3, dark fury assault marines. All of them are new units from book lll.

KBA Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 You could wait for Forge World to make the units, but if you're really ancy, there's a lot to work with through bits from the new(ish) Vanguard kit to the FW recon set.

TearsOfTheRaven Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 YAY RECON MARINES I bought and built a squad of recon marines with a RG upgrade pack. It is a lovely kit to work with. My only problem now is how to paint them. All suggestions on how to paint them?paint schemes is very welcome. http://i.imgur.com/pKquaNX.jpg http://i.imgur.com/AmYpvaZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/b7UXifv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/QoBdNfy.jpg http://i.imgur.com/0pEsH52.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289446-totrs-raven-guard-attempting-ad-mech/#findComment-3654944 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight of the Raven Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Extermination depicts all markings, including the Raven Guard legion badge, to be of an absolute black on the recon marine, barely contrasting with the 'flat, ash-grey finish in its passive state' of his armor with the cameoline field disengaged. Good-looking models. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289446-totrs-raven-guard-attempting-ad-mech/#findComment-3654997 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TearsOfTheRaven Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 My only problem with an all black model, is that it is boring to paint and look at.

Knight of the Raven Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I agree, which is why I like looking at World Eaters more than at Raven Guard.Paint the demi-cloak in the same color as the base, maybe? Dark red cloth if you're using red sang, etc. Sprinkle different hues for flavor and camouflage effect.
