Olis Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Very nice. There's something about his face that I like - maybe there's a certain individuality about it. Hmm.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 The face looks more like how I picture a White Scar in my mind, but awesome work regardless!

Colrouphobic Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Thanks guys, the face is based on a very photogenic/handsome guy. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303538-veteran-ultramarine-art/#findComment-3952644 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retributis Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 The only thing I can't figure out is why the helmet would hang like that - It feels like it should be side on/facing down as it hangs from the back of the helmet and his thigh is pushing past it? Other than that though, it's fantastic. I really like the high contrast lighting you've got going on.

Grimdarkness Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Great looking piece the facial hair looks a little odd to me but that's just me.

Firepower Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Thanks guys, the face is based on a very photogenic/handsome guy.

Brother Heinrich Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Great work, but his face reminds me more of Lemmy from Motorhead than a member of the most Roman-esque chapter this side of Terra.

MagicMan Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I dunno, his face has an angry Spartan vibe to it. Very cool. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303538-veteran-ultramarine-art/#findComment-3953789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colrouphobic Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 I had to darken his facial hair somewhat, it was vanishing in the shadows...

Yep, was wondering the same thing. Otherwise, fantastic job Along with the swirl of the mist, this is to imply movement. The helmet moves in his hip as he moves his leg forward. If I would have put the helmet just hanging sideways on his hip, it would imply a very static pose. I was trying to imply that he actually alreay started to move. Nevertheless, it's what you see/like/think that get you there. :) glad you like the rest.

Retributis Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Ah I see, it's being swung forward with the hip/leg movement as he steps forward? I think I was just envisiging a different part of the movement cycle :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303538-veteran-ultramarine-art/#findComment-3959600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Aaaaah, right. Makes more sense now. But I still think that rotating the helmet slightly more to the left (his right) would reinforce that movement you're trying to represent :) But whatever, it's still a great piece!

+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Really great picture! Really gives out the grim character of a space-marine, though I must admit that it is twice as great as it was done with a shiny smooth ultramarine... wait! he's got facial hair! Its a space wolf in disguise! Got ya! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/303538-veteran-ultramarine-art/#findComment-3961995 Share on other sites More sharing options...
