Rob_Loken Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Hi there, I recently bit the bullet and bought some Sisters of Battle. I didn't really have a colour scheme in mind but I wanted them to fit with my Blood Angels. I don't have the codex yet so for now I might play them as scouts.Anyway I painted up the Canoness first. I must say I didn't realise how much smaller and detailed they were compared to marines. It was definitely fun to do. The base is very plain but I did freehand a bit of an Aquilla on there in an attempt to liven it up a bit. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/Adeptus%20Soroitas/54551bef-b31e-46f3-9a6b-4676518669c4_zpsdc8fbfc4.jpg Thanks for looking, Rob Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguine_Knight Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I like it... Definitely could use more basing though Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3703974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 Thanks, I was thinking possibly some IG detritus and some blood spatter? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3703982 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanguine_Knight Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I always like battlefield detritus. Just goes with the idea of a war torn far future.

WarriorFish Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The wonders of metal - she looks good! I like the colour scheme, it's a good red but I think the base is ok with the detail you've painted on. Maybe some rocks or a discarded weapon/knife in the ground?

Aqui Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 It's always good to see a Sisters topic and quite rare to see Sisters in red armour. I quite like the Dread in the background too Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3705569 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Kravin Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I like the base. In this case I say less is more. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3707568 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Thanks guys. I'll hopefully have a little bit more to post up soon. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3708238 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Cambrius Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Looking good Duncs! The scheme looks good and I like the choice of colour for her power sword. On a side note, are you still lurking in the Shire? :) Cambrius Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3708337 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Cheers Brother Cambrius. I kept the sword fairly simple as I didn't want to make it look too "warpy". I'm living in Gloucestershire nowadays but I try to get back down to the true 'Shire every now and again. I still keep an eye on what's happening at H.A.T.s. Right then, I've painted a Sister Superior. The base is really terrible but I think tomorrow I'll pick up some texture paint I get some decent basing done on these too. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/Adeptus%20Soroitas/f8873289-2d21-41cb-9fde-a719f2ce094b_zps98f0935b.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3708486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I think it'll look fine once you give it a bit of attention :) Bases and faces and all that :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291762-by-the-emperors-light-i-lead/#findComment-3708993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Aye cheers mate. One day I'll get the hang of basing properly. It's certainly one of my weakest areas.
