Cpt_Tiberius Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Here is an illustration I did for Molotov's Castigator IA. Let me know what you think... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/Cpt_Tiberius/Castigator_chappy_revised.jpg (note: Image edited to show corrected chapter badge as well as some color correcting) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelSaphire Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Wow I like it :) the gold is done very well. Will you make this into a mini? or did you just make the drawing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziellycas Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 sure that's looking good the only one thing that I don't like are his eyes, i prefer all black :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
necroncrisis Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I like it ... it looks sweet ... very nicely done ... i especially like that the purity seals look like paper ... on the chapter symbol tho, isn't the circle around the flexed arm supposed to be a whip that he's holding in his clenched fist ... or did Molotov decide to change it ... what medium did you use to create this with ?

Chronos Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Bloody brilliant. I love it. THough I think it may be a tad to OTT for an IA article. (at least I think its for an IA article) maybe if you put him in a more relaxed pose. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penitent Dreadnought Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 on the chapter symbol tho, isn't the circle around the flexed arm supposed to be a whip that he's holding in his clenched fist ... or did Molotov decide to change it ... Molotov has not changed the Castigator Chapter symbol. It remains a flexing arm holding a whip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Gothard Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Uber! Will you make this into a mini? Either you do or I will. That's an awesome pose. In fact, I will regardless. Not that I use chaplains in my armies .. but meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldo_Funk Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I think that I wouldn't stay too long staring at this artwork. The Chaplain molotov seems really to prepare for delivering the Emperor Wrath, and you seems really to be the next to take benefit of it. The rosarius isquite good, but i would have seen an eagle on the chest to remember the imperium. Very good and impressive job on it, Molotov can be proud.

Chaplain Desmodus Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Now that looks great. *goes back to look again* Yup, great. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt_Tiberius Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 Thanks for the comments guys, I'm glad you liked it. what medium did you use to create this with ?Well I draw the illustration in pencil first, then I enlarge it a bit on a copier and ink the lines, then scan it in and color in photoshop. on the chapter symbol tho, isn't the circle around the flexed arm supposed to be a whip that he's holding in his clenched fist ... or did Molotov decide to change it ... All I can say about the chapter badge is...D'OH! B) Actually I was going off of the pther illustraion he had, and you can't make out the right edge of the badge (where the hand grabs the whip) so I will go back in and fix that. Does anyone know if there is a drawing of the complete badge? That would help. I like it ... it looks sweet ... very nicely done ... i especially like that the purity seals look like paper ...Thanks! I specifically used different colors on the bone & parchment so that they read as separate materials. Could probably use more differentiation though... THough I think it may be a tad to OTT for an IA article. Possibly...ironically I generally draw more relaxed poses (for example the image I drew for the Howling Griffons homepage). But I really wanted to capture the fiery zeal of the chaplain. Will you make this into a mini? I would, but frankly I have zero experience converting minis, and my painting skills are sub par at best. So anyone who would like to give it a shot, i'd love to see what you come up with. B) Thanks again for the replies. This one turned out alot better than I expected. Now I just gotta fix that badge... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moribund the Burgermeister Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 sure that's looking good the only one thing that I don't like are his eyes, i prefer all black :D I tried it, and it did look a bit more awesone than it already is! :devil: Moribund.

Commissar Molotov Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Hey, Tiberius - I didn't see this thread or I would have replied a LOT earlier. I really like the image, it'll definately have a home within my IA - though it's very different from anything I could have imagined. It's very menacing, which totally fits with the imagery I have for the Castigators. I love it. :devil: With regards to the Chapter Badge, here's the best version of it I could find: http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/8848/skorhal0fc.jpg Yes, before people ask, it is the symbol of the Sons of Korhal from the Starcraft computer game.

ironloki Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Wowza. I love it especially the Gold. And of course he does requests. He's doing one for me next *waves melta* :devil: Nah only kidding :D That is very cool and I personally like how more Art work is appearing in the forum. Hope to see more of your work cropping up. (In fact do you have any links to other peices of art you have done? - power armoured of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callas Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 "You are the weakest traitor. Goodbye." I love the effect on the breastplate and greaves, the transition is as smooth as, the whole pose screams chaplain beating someone down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpt_Tiberius Posted April 20, 2006 Author Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hey guys! Thanks for the imput. I know some of you like the all black eyes, which I agree would look very menacing. I chose to have the white flares as a sign of his near psychotic need to punish the corrupt. Image that they are normally all black, but then he spots you and these 2 beedy eyes of hate flash at you as he decides you'd may a good whackin' post to test his shiny crozius. That's kinda what I had in mind. :P As for other comments... And of course he does requests. He's doing one for me next *waves melta*Well possibly, Depends on what you are requesting. If it strikes my fancy I might give it a go. It will probably take me a bit though. My lovely wife has my Mac tied up most of the time with her photography business, so I have to squeeze in digital painting where I can. Hope to see more of your work cropping up. (In fact do you have any links to other peices of art you have done? - power armoured of course) Well I generally only draw power armor (I'm kinda obsessed you might say... <_< ) As for other pieces this is the first color piece I have done in awhile, but I have several scetches. Here is another thread of my work if you are interested... http://bolterandchainsword.com/index.php?showtopic=84407 Molotov - No problem. I'll see if I cant fix that badge for you. I'm glad you liked it. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
