SteelDragon26 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 That kneeling Knight is just epic. Is the greenstuff shoulder badge done using a cast you took of a veteran pad?

Lostrael Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 I took the symbol from a forge world shoulder pad. I'm not that happy with that symbol. I run out of DA shoulder pads and to order would take to long.

Greenz Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I love the movement of the first marine, but the second brother just screams story! While I love the kitty, have you considered maybe placing a helmet of a fallen brother or something along those lines?

Raztalin Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 KITTENZ!!! Whoops...over excitement! OT: they are both very cool conversions. I'd have to go with the kneeling one however. Very thematic! Great work Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318921-lostraels-dark-angels/page/8/#findComment-4535280 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major_Gilbear Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I like the pose of the first one more for swordfighting/movement, but the second Marine is clearly keeping the kitteh away from the hedgepig on the earlier fig's base - a real champion! ;) Lostrael 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318921-lostraels-dark-angels/page/8/#findComment-4535335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Raeven Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 My vote goes to the second one. I love scenic poses. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318921-lostraels-dark-angels/page/8/#findComment-4535606 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostrael Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Than the second it shall be. I love the movement of the first marine, but the second brother just screams story! While I love the kitty, have you considered maybe placing a helmet of a fallen brother or something along those lines? Something like that? Perhaps I have some MKIII helmets left.

Epher Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 The level of detail that you put into your models is epic!

Raztalin Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Bravo indeed! Stunning work yet again...its breath taking. I can look at each image over and over and pick out extra details each time!

Dark Rage Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 That sword affect is awesome, also really like the blue robes instead of the use of blue armour, may have to steal this =).

Brother dean Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Well :cuss: This is what I get for ignoring all the project threads in the DA section... Nice work.

Lostrael Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 Thanks guys. The level of detail that you put into your models is epic! To say great job on the layering and highlighting would be an understatement and detailing on the face is superb! How, sir, do you do it??? slow and purposeful. I like to try out stuff. Sometimes it works... sometimes it brings questionable results Tried to make a fierce red sword...Looks like a lollipop That sword affect is awesome, also really like the blue robes instead of the use of blue armour, may have to steal this =). I read of blue robes of the Librarius in The Lion HH Novel and tried that out. That's why some of my Librarians have blue robes. Well : This is what I get for ignoring all the project threads in the DA section... Nice work. I may need to speak to you in a couple months about the Cataphractii pad molds... It is good to see what the FW torsos look like before I order Prospero.I have skimmed in spots but I didnt see it asked, (green was asked twice tho.) exactly what is your Black recipie... I posted some black, just hidden behind spoiler tags http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318921-lostraels-dark-angels/?p=4345452 A problem of black is that you see every dust grain on it. My ravenwing is currently developing a fur, because it has not been played for a while. I hope FW will do some shoulder pads for DA... I mean it was fun to build the molds, but I'm ready bad in working with green stuff... It's sticking everywhere.

I was sure it was more white at the beginning! You have a good eye. My feathers always change. Cannot help it. I paint my ravenwing since 4 years... nearly all bike feathers look different. This time I started with ice blue and adriatic blue on the front feathers... a week later I remembered I also had to paint the feather on the back but used sky blue instead.

Lostrael Posted November 6, 2016 Author Share Posted November 6, 2016 From somewhere I got the notion that my champion should wear a cloak. So I had an idea to use the cloak back part from one of the Deathwatch Death Masque box models, but of cause it would not fit to a kneeling knight and I'm really bad at sculpting. So I made a copy of instant mold. (Took 5 minutes) Created a thin layer of milliput and pressed it into the form, waited an hour, so it was still flexibel but hard enough to remove it from the form. I cut the raw cloak into shape and fixed it to the model. put some paint on it. Not 100 percent happy with the edges. Maybe next time.
