Alby the Slayer Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 (edited) Lately I've been interested in "obscure" and not so famous space marine chapters. I found them intriguing and you can use your ideas and imaginations to create something new, since there is not so much about them. lore or models speaking. Star Phantoms are most fond of martyrs, great use of ranged and dangerous weapons no matter the cost, they shun contact with other imperial forces and they are quite fixated with death. They were instrumental in the resolution of the badad war. So with this project I want to give life to their traits and I had a leviathan dreddy who was crying for some paint for a while now... I used liquid green stuff to add texture and various bits. To convey their martyrs and death fixation. Also for me some liquid green stuff for textures. The base will be very simple since it's already busy with two models, one very large. This is before the grimdark treatment: And after : Now to add some details and finish touch for the marine.

Alby the Slayer Posted October 16 Author Share Posted October 16 The marine is done. Maybe I'll add something(glow for the plasma,etc.) when he'll be on the base but for now it I'm onto the base and the dreddy.

Firedrake Cordova Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 He looks good, but I'm wondering if there's something that can be done to make the purity seals visually distinct from the armour, as they're quite a similar colour?

That is a great suggestion! I will add some sepia shade, add contrast from the armour. Thank you @Firedrake Cordova.

Grotsmasha Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 When I'm painting purity seal on white/bone marines, I usually shift to Cadian Fleshtone as my base colour for Purity Seals.

Alby the Slayer Posted Tuesday at 08:03 AM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 08:03 AM Changed to more visibile with sepia tones like @Firedrake Cordova suggested. And the base is also done: Firedrake Cordova, GSCUprising, Tallarn Commander and 3 others 5 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386897-star-phantoms-project/#findComment-6137707 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Ruminahui Posted Tuesday at 09:24 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 09:24 PM I really like the change to the purity seals - they really do provide a nice contrast in colour and brightness to the duller armour and cloth.
