Fezifresh Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Greetings Brothers,I've been playing and collecting for only about one and a half years.

Grand Master Belial Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Brother Arkley nailed the Red so why not an awesome blue! Bring them on and be ready because the Index Astartes writing event begins in March!

Chaplain Raeven Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Those marines are looking great! The blue has a nice shade and your bone trim looks great. Just not a fan of the black weaponcasings and the robe. And welcome to the forum mate! *Gives virtual beer* Fezifresh 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/329717-cobalt-angels-wip/#findComment-4619251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othniel's Blade Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Agreed with GreyRaven: the robe is too dark for me; but the plasma coils pair nicely with the blue armor... I look forward to seeing more. Those bone kneecaps are begging for some heraldry or cheques.

Greenz Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 It might be heresy, but that is some fine looking heresy you've got there! Really digging the colour scheme. But I will echo the others, the robe and weapon casings could use a little more colour. Something to make them stand out a bit. Terrific work though, I'm looking forward to more!

Fezifresh Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 Thanks for the responses :)I was a little nervous about your thoughts on the blue. I'm glad you like it.I'm a little undecided on the kneepads, company markings and squad markings. Also my freehanding isn't very good and I'm afraid to ruin the paintjob :-/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/329717-cobalt-angels-wip/#findComment-4620500 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Master Belial Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 The bone accents on the Devastators are really helping the weapons pop. Perhaps a slash mark on the Bolters of the Tactical squad will help them out.

Othniel's Blade Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Those devastators are sick. They look ready to surgically remove threats to their brethren. Love the black highlight just inside the bone, makes it pop so well.

jbaeza94 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 i have to ask, how did you get such a fine line of black around the white on the eye lenses?

Chaplain Raeven Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Thanks for the responses I was a little nervous about your thoughts on the blue. I'm glad you like it. I'm a little undecided on the kneepads, company markings and squad markings. Also my freehanding isn't very good and I'm afraid to ruin the paintjob :-/ There's never a reason to be nervous about creative work. We have an open mind in the B&C Leave the kneepads and markings for later when you feel confident, your models aren't running away just yet. Who knows, you might come across transfers you like. I echo some of the comments above, your bone accent on the weapons make a huge difference. The launchers on the left look more appealing than the black one on the right. a bone (or another colour) trim/casing on your weapons might benefit your models. The boltpistol is particulary hard to spot, which is a shame for such a great pose.

Greenz Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Looking much better with the bone accents. Lets see more! As GRC said, don't ever feel intimidated posting on here. A lot of us were in the same boat at first, but it's very rewarding getting your pics up. Not everyone likes everything, but you will always receive support and advice. Keep it up!

Reyner Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I reckon bone on your tactical squad weapons would look good, blue and bone is a great combo in my opinion. How are you doing the blue?

Fezifresh Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 Thank you for the encouraging responses :) The bone accents on the Devastators are really helping the weapons pop. Perhaps a slash mark on the Bolters of the Tactical squad will help them out. Thanks for the advice :)I'm in the progress of giving the final touch to the models I painted during the last year. I will definitly try to highlight the black weapons a little more. i have to ask, how did you get such a fine line of black around the white on the eye lenses? It's actually not a black line, but very dark shaded blue from the power-armour paint. I reckon bone on your tactical squad weapons would look good, blue and bone is a great combo in my opinion. How are you doing the blue? The blue is from a Ultramarine painting guide:Basecoat: Macgragge BlueShade: Drakenhof NightshadeLayer: Altdorf Guard BlueEdge Highlight: Calgar BlueFinish: Guilliman Blue Glaze Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/329717-cobalt-angels-wip/#findComment-4622630 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fezifresh Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 A little Background for the Cobalt Angels: The Chapter of the Cobalt Angels is one of 18 Chapters composing the Astrates Praeses.The Dark Angels were eager to be involved in the founding, because this allowed them to keep a watch close to the Eye of Terror and possible Fallen activities there. Their speical role led to a different organisation than most of the other chapters:- no companys, but three bigger Strike Forces (around 300 Marines) - big parts of the chapter are aware of inner-circle-knowlege - 3 major Orders: Cobalt-Angels (Greenwing), Executioners (Deathwing), Hunters (Ravenwing) - Strikeforces comprise of all three Orders And Assault Squad Nihil deathspectersgt7, Komodo and elmo 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/329717-cobalt-angels-wip/#findComment-4624206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
