Tzen Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 I have been painting some Ultramarines recently. I try and hit a nice middle ground with these between decent paint job and table top quality. Happy with the results! These both took me a little over a day to do. (Which is fast for me! :D ) http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/primaris2.3.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/primaris2.2.jpg Bjorn Firewalker, Master Toddius, Syward and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297484-tzens-ultramarines/page/5/#findComment-5260056 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syward Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Very nice Ultramarines you've got there. Very crisp and clean, which IMHO, suites the 13th legion very well. I especially like the Plasma/Fist Capt. you did, that cloak looks great. :tu: Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297484-tzens-ultramarines/page/5/#findComment-5260228 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted February 26, 2019 Author Share Posted February 26, 2019 Another quick Primaris Marine done. I spent a little more time on the face, as it's the focal point, but managed to do the rest pretty quickly! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/prim4.1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/prim4.2.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/prim4.3.jpg Brother Lunkhead, Dosjetka, Canardwc and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297484-tzens-ultramarines/page/5/#findComment-5264705 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjorn Firewalker Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Beautiful colors. Some bloodstains on the Marine and the very ground he stands on, may improve the model's appearance by justifying the fierce expression on his face.

Personally I think the extremely crisp and clean style that Tzen has for his models suits the Ultramarines perfectly.

cretacianborn Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Your marines faces are amazing dude, how do you do the stubble on the beards and heads? It looks super realistic.

Tzen Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Glad you like chaps! I try to keep my Ultras without blood or battle damage, nice and clean like Roboute would expect! :D I also rustle these up pretty fast, I don't go to town with them or anything. Gaming pieces :D The way I do my stubble is I add a small amount of mechanicus standard grey to my second to last skin highlight (70/30 Cadian fleshtone/Screaming skull) and a tiny drop of black. The black is for just toning the mix to whatever shade you want your stubble to be. Once I have got a mix I am happy with, I then stipple the paint as to where the hair would be. After that a few purple and red glazes, and a cadian fleshtone glaze (really really watered down cadian fleshtone) helps to pull the colours together. Hope it helps! :D I will do a video one day on faces. Just mega hard to film. >.< cretacianborn 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297484-tzens-ultramarines/page/5/#findComment-5265411 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Thanks Syward! :D Once I have this 5man squad of intercessors done, I need to do 4 more Reivers and then after that maybe some new Word Bearers. Assuming the new Chaos stuff is for generic marines as well as the Black Legion! :D Syward 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297484-tzens-ultramarines/page/5/#findComment-5265465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syward Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 ...then after that maybe some new Word Bearers. Assuming the new Chaos stuff is for generic marines as well as the Black Legion! Looking forward to seeing them. Given how your Ultramarines come out, I bet you're Word Bearers would look incredible.

Tzen Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Well, most of my Word Bearers stuff is very old and is very tired. I promised myself I would start over with them if CSM ever got a decent enough range to support them. I am really hoping they release Word Bearers plastic upgrade sprues to go with the new minis.
