WIP of my CPT Slam!

[Hintzy]

It's already gorgeous, great work.

[Majkhel]

Looking good! lovely smoothness on the cloak!
I'm not convinced of the way shade is applied on the backpack though. From which direction the light is supposed to fall on it?

[Panzer]

More like Stabinius. :D

Love the shield but my favourite part of the model is the white cloak. So smooth!

[Silas7]

Take all my likes :D

[Quixus]

Looking gorgeous. Let's see if I guess the parts right (in order of certainty):

Spear and shield: Conversion World

Jump pack: Sanguinary guard/MKIV assault marines

Left shoulder pad: Aggressors

Right shoulder pad: SM Commander

Body: Primaris heroes

Helmet: Dark Vengeance

Arms: B@C or MKIV marines

[Jolemai]

Noooooo

You're painting it too early! :cry:

Thanks!  It's coming from the direction of the spear...it made sense when I painted it.  I think it makes sense looking from top down.  If not...rule of cool?

Close! Left shoulder pad: BA primaris upgrade kit

Right shoulder pad: Sanguinary Guard

Body and arms: Primaris captain (just chopped up a bit)

 

Noooooo

You're painting it too early!

 

Don't worry jol! I have another captain on my table and plenty of other goodies to paint for ETL!

[Majkhel]

I'm guessing at least his shield was already pre-marbled sometime eariler.

 

Keebler, no worries Brother! I'm only allowing myself such criticism because your paint job is sooo good otherwise :)

Continued WIP of my CPT Smash! Oils on

[BLACK BLΠFLY]

Sweet !!!

[MadGreek]

That is a beauty right there!

[keeblerartillery]

CPT Izlude of the 3rd Company of the Carmines Blades complete! Otherwise known as CPT Slam!

[Panzer]

Not a fan of "island"-type bases but the Captain himself looks awesome as hell!

[Majkhel]

That he does! Very nice effect on the spear as well 

[keeblerartillery]

An update for my ETL vow - progress on my Libby Dread! I'm super excited about this model

[keeblerartillery]

Alright, brief update! Libby dread ready for oils and weathering:

And a WIP of my sicarans -

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Excellent work on the Librarian Contemptor.

[keeblerartillery]

So I decided to take a break from my ETL vow to upgrade my sanguinary guard's weapons...mostly because I got inspired while working on my 2nd CPT Slam's weapon. So here they are!

[Majkhel]

Really nice effect on the blades!

I like it that they often have horizontal-ish lines rather than then along the length of the blade blade that we so often see on power weapons. They seem to shimmer with power. Really, really nice :)

[keeblerartillery]

So I realize I have been pretty delinquent in my updates...large one incoming! Sicarans, librarian dreadnought, sanguinary ancient/cpt slam, mephiston kit bash and a WIP of my Astorath the Grim. Let me know what you think!

[Majkhel]

Lovely to witness your work as always :) I'm especially glad to see the Sicarans - perfect timing as I've recently acquired a Sicaran Omega and have been looking for inspiration.

I like the second one more. The application of marble seems more 'natural'.

The other looks a little as if covered in snow ;) What would you say for adding trims od gold/metal along the length od the marble? It would create a suggestion of marble blocks being held in place.

 

Beautiful gold on the captain! And Reivers' heads do a great job on the other characters. Really nice posing too.

An interesting twist with the bloody marble on the Astorath. A little too shiny for my liking atm, bu I'm looking forward to the final version!

Cheers :)

[Panzer]

Lovely paintjobs again, but I have to repeat what others said on reddit about your Mephiston conversion. I really wouldn't ever guess that's supposed to be Mephiston. If you tell me it's Mephiston I'd accept it, but I just can't see it.

[Damon Nightman]

Absolutely amazing! I like your version of mephiston for the carmine blades!

[keeblerartillery]

Alright! Time for a small update - WIP of my new and improved death company scheme, Lemartes and Astorath!
