Operative23 Posted July 29 Author Share Posted July 29 (edited) Well, the yellow wash came out really orangy... :) It turns out that it was bob ross situation. My first intend was to add some black flames as decoration on the yellow plate. The orange was finally a happy accident, with the new yellow dab i've just added, i find the overall look even more "flamy" so no more black flames in the scope :) Edited July 29 by Operative23 Firedrake Cordova, WBRBloom, BadgersinHills and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/377999-oldies-rogue-trader-and-3d-shenanigans/page/6/#findComment-6180981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
phandaal Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 That is a nice vibrant look! Also came out very smooth and not splotchy considering the wash was over large flat panels. Looking forward to seeing the next progress pic!

I should be in time before the end of the vows :) phandaal, BadgersinHills, WBRBloom and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/377999-oldies-rogue-trader-and-3d-shenanigans/page/6/#findComment-6181255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Operative23 Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 Back online :) Some holidays gave me time to properly finish, that was a really fun project :) BadgersinHills, NotOneStepBack, Dr_Ruminahui and 3 others 3 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/377999-oldies-rogue-trader-and-3d-shenanigans/page/6/#findComment-6183802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Ruminahui Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 (edited) Saw this guy in your Call to Arms post, and loved him. The yellow, the weathered bronze, the tiny buddy, they are all perfect. Only thing I would change are the eye lenses, which seem kind of muted and which (IMHO) would look better if they stood out more (they look a bit dusty - which if probably realistic, but I think they would be better as a more sci fi "glowing eye" (even if not glowing) focal point) - maybe in more vibrant/saturated colours, or with some kind of gem like hightlights?

Thanks for the feedbacks. With a second look, i agree with you, the paint job might benefit with a more realistic gem like treatment. Beginning of the school year is always a rush, but as soon as i can get back on painting, i will definitely give it a try :) Dr_Ruminahui 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/377999-oldies-rogue-trader-and-3d-shenanigans/page/6/#findComment-6186635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
