Another assault squad, this time without jump packs. Arguably the second most useless unit in our codex.

But as I always say:  if you buy it - paint it, and if you paint it - might as well do it well...

I really dig the marble(?) style of the relic. Looks as awesome as all your stuff. 

Your thread is one of my inspirations to get better at painting.

 

Thank you!

 

First time I tried the marble effect. Came out quite nice so I'm thinking about doing the same with the Dark Talon crypt and relief on the tail.

Really crisp highlights, good work man!

 

If I may be so bold, I'd try to make the plasma "coils" on the battery of the Vengeance more nuanced, Duncan Rhodes has a simple but quite good way of doing it. I try to do it myself, but my skills are not as obvious as yours, so you'd probably achieve a much better result than I can.

The dark shroud looks great and I agree the edge hilights are super crisp.

 

I strongly recommend anyone reading the thread should go into your gallery and view the full sized image especially if like me you are using a tablet or phone as these little images really lose the detail and don’t do the work justice.

 

Edited just to mention the quality of the photos too. I like the professional looking back drop.

While painting this army I actualy tried quite a few different methods of painting plasma coils. Didn't quite get to the point where i'm happy with them. Maybe I'll try Lord Duncans method next :biggrin.:  

Very cool and impressive painting all around (just found this). Any chance you could share you're steps for doing the marble?

 

Thank you!

 

For the marble, I tried to follow this tutorial:

Another addition to my Ravenwing force: a Dark Talon!

 

Decided to go with the same decorative marble/jade style i used on the Darkshroud. Quite happy with the end result, though I obviously need more practice painting random veins on marble.

 

Also, I need a bigger lightbox and backdrop...
