RenderDead Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hello my fellow BA people. I was kinda slow and scared to post any of my work and my slow progress of that work. But I will now start to share it here, I will try to get some pics rolling very shorty. Hope you all like it and critique please! I will start by showing just some marines I worked on recently, not done yet and with a newer painting style called over brushing. Enjoy. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/photo_zps27897410.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenderDead Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Here is my 1st Furioso, still need to finish the base work for the blue glow. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/IMG_0686.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolchiate Remembrancer Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hey Brother! I would love a close up front shot of those marines, looks like you've got the halved scheme down pat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenderDead Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hey Brother! I would love a close up front shot of those marines, looks like you've got the halved scheme down pat! Thanks! Below I hope in good quality shows the scheme up close. If not I will take some better photos soon. I do not like grey to highlight black especially on marines. So I chose to do a dark blue, it seems natural to me. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/Marinescloseup_zps69901fe8.jpg Edit: You'll notice I almost kept his chest eagle black, but I went back and made sure it was yellow to follow the Sanguine scheme.

RenderDead Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Here are some marines with jump packs. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/AssaultMarines_zps64671840.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolchiate Remembrancer Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 There small but still view-able. Overall they look awesome! I find the helmets quite bright but that might just be a preference thing(I know some Imperial Fists fans would love that yellow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Loving the yellow for the helmets. Looking great overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenderDead Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Yes yellow is hit or miss, either looks great or not so much. Now for Blood Angels you want that pop in their assault marines helmets makes them stand out. Im not talking neon yellow but you get the idea. Edit: By the way you can click the images to show them at a larger size in the gallery where they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGPO Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Terrific start, and it's always good to see another Angels Sanguine player! You should check out Owlandmoonguy's army as well, it's inspirational stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenderDead Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Thanks! This weekend I will update more with my Stormraven for the paint challenge and some razorbacks! I started learning how to use an airbrush and so far its a big learning curve from the good ole paint brush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricPaladin Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I've never thought to try a halved or quartered scheme. These guys are neat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenderDead Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Nice painting mate! Your red looks really vibrant, I like that. Also, good job on the scouts. Cool bases! Snorri Thanks! My idea for my armies setting is either on some death world, being torn apart by energies inside the planet. But the better idea that I went with was my army is on some massive hollowed out planet with gigantic caverns, etc. You can see on the dreadnought I have fungus and crystals. So being underground and dark I wanted a blow glow on their bases surrounding the rocks they are on. The blue glow can be water, or some other form of liquid that gives off that vibrant glow.

RenderDead Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 You can't have Blood Angels unless you have Death Company right? My all time favorite unit the game. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/DCsquad_zpsd0e07346.jpg I have attached several more pictures showing a little more detail on some of them. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/DCfront_zpsf0129358.jpg http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/DCleft_zps0eff75ba.jpg http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/DCright_zps7d6231e2.jpg http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/RenderDead/Blood%20Angels/DCback_zps2bb04e0e.jpg I like to call him my unofficial sergeant!

marine7312000 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Those are some crisp looking models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Ditto. These are some very pretty marines. The bases are genius. How did you do them? Dynamic basing really helps make a good looking force great. I'll be keeping an eye on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenderDead Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Ditto. These are some very pretty marines. The bases are genius. How did you do them? Dynamic basing really helps make a good looking force great. I'll be keeping an eye on this. Thanks! The bases are done with cork board. I break them up to look like chunks of earth they are on. The blue glow is done in many stages starting from a blackl/stegadonscale green mix, I build that up with other blues and greys to almost a white and I glaze it in the recesses to make it pop. I use the darker closers on the rocks as a glow but not up to the intensity of "liquid" itself. It almost takes longer to do the bases than the models themselves.

Corvus_Danseur Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Really love your work! Death Company in particular are spectacular. Think might have to look into blue for black highlighting... likewise not really satisfied with the grey highlights I've used until now. What shade do you use?

Voxxel Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Very nice! I really like your bases and also the glow effect on the jump packs! I might steal that idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree grey highlights to me look either to fake or are to hard for me to do haha. I think dark blue seems natural to me, or just the setting I put my marines is a dark death world. I start of with the darkest color of Stegadon Scale Green (base color), I then add quarter ratios of Thunderhawk Blue (layer color). I work this up 3 times, then use black to bring the lines down and make them look more crisp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
