Brother Excedis Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I've been following your progress on other sources, however I have finally found my way back here. Excellent progress and beautiful painting skills. I love the varied and appropriately dynamic poses for each individual marine. Some of the painting techniques I'm going to have to message you about or something (if you're willing to share that is) because I want to know how you do it.

One-eye Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Incredible squad, nothing more to say. Your Scythes are truly awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Looking good for the most part. I think a couple of pose tweaks might be necessary on the powerfist guys and the thunder hammer chap with the more passive legs looks very out of place given that the other four seem to be at a dead run or sprint; his legs are kind of advancing and the torso is aligned with them, which means the direction of his head doesn't really fit and if you rotate that to work the posing of the arms then looks a bit awkward. The way the whole upper body is now would work on a different set of legs where the left leg was the one leading.Left-handed powerfist guy could do with having his shield arm rotated upwards a bit so the shield is more square to the body and the fist rotated down a few degrees so it's a bit more horizontal. Right-handed powerfist I'm not entirely sure what looks off with him, but I think twisting the body a little more to the right and bringing the shield arm up a bit would help.The (presumably) sergeant with the thunder hammer is absolutely spot on, though, and looks really bloody mean!

Daemon2027 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Agree with sockwithaticket, the one with the passive legs is a bit out of place in the squad. Otherwise fantastic, I really love the idea of going into battle with a big massive powered fist and a shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly_bear Posted September 1, 2015 Author Share Posted September 1, 2015 Guys thank you so much for inputs, advice and comments, when I get to the vanguard I'll be putting your advice to great effect.

Grizzly_bear Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 Thanks a lot gents, I'm thinking of putting Khârn on a 40mm base with the dead marine now on the base. Quick question.... I was going to make the dead marine an ultramarine BUT I'm thinking of painting him as an imperial fist, purely for the reasons as I know yellow, battle damage & blood will show up in greater detail on yellow rather than blue....thoughts?

Ratboy1664 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I like the nid blood, but I think you need to add it to more than just the jump pack, and maybe smaller more splattery (if such a word exists) blood maybe through stipling or somesuch. That minor nit picking aside I love the vibe of these guys, they just scream Scythes of the Emperor knowing they are doomed, yet determined to sell their lives for the highest price possible. Keep it up dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 They look fantastic Grizzly. :)Maybe a little too much blood on the swords. Would be nice to see some of the bare metal showing through under the splatter, but thats more personal taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he's come back to the scythes of the emperor and has taken the unofficial position of "first Sargent" of the scythes newly formed 1st company. So I wanted his armour and weapons to really stand out. And what better base model than old Abby's, fantastic sculpt and model. And as you can see I've imperialed it up.
