Dr_Ruminahui Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I really like the tan cape on the Executioner - I think the same would look great on the Lord as well.

Lord_Starscream Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 Making Progress. Oh man, this thing's taking as long as painting half a squad, lol. Cape's done. Things to do: Touchups on the cables. Plasma Pistol and left arm pipes. The WINGS (God damn it I don't know what colour I'm gonna paint them, lol) Excessus, TrawlingCleaner, Khornestar and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359837-word-bearers-the-grand-host-of-the-order-of-the-apocalypse/page/3/#findComment-5442157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaliGn Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Cape looks good, keep the wings in line with the flesh, possibly lighter in the thinner areas?

I'm really conflicted on even the basic colours to paint the wings at this point XD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359837-word-bearers-the-grand-host-of-the-order-of-the-apocalypse/page/3/#findComment-5442422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Ruminahui Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 The cloth looks great - the lighter tan adds a nice bit of contrast. If you are having trouble deciding on the wing colours, I would wait until you have painted and attached the head, as that will give you a better idea of what the model as a whole will look like. You can then chose colours that would go well with that... That said, the dark green GW uses for some of its dark eldar might look good (for example, the armour on this model: https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Dark-Eldar-Lhamaean) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359837-word-bearers-the-grand-host-of-the-order-of-the-apocalypse/page/3/#findComment-5442439 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his head is done.

Dr_Ruminahui Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Yeah, green likely isn't the right colour, having seen the completed head. Maybe hold up different paint pots behind his head to get an idea of how they might look as a wing colour.

MegaVolt87 Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Love it. Are you going to do a glow on the hammer? Would look even more amazing.

Excessus Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Nice! Are you gonna paint an effect on the wings, like a ghostly shine or golden light?

Midnightmare Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 What an awesome looking Lord!

Mr4Minutes Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Nice choice on the wing colour. Did not see that coming!

Dr_Ruminahui Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I love the angelic looking wings on the definitely not angelic body - its nicely symbolic of both the terror and allure of chaos. Good choice.

DaBoiKyknos Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 (edited) What do you guys think? Do the wings work? I think they look pretty good, especially with the head change. It has the Angel of the Damned vibe for me. I think we're gonna go with the black wings, lol. That's exactly what I think! Looks great! Edit: Oh you all ready attached the wings. My opinion still stands though, now more than ever!
