calamity_kane Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Great colour scheme and that dred is just :D red helmets works exceedingly well, know of chapter from the the DA codex and that helmet is a great extension of the suggested colour scheme. calamity Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85828-750pt-deathwing-army/#findComment-993451 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mortiferum Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Love the painting and colour scheme It really works! If I've one critism it would be the bases. Not sure of the bases is the white suppose to be snow? Otherwise a very well thought out and executed paint job. EDIT : Just spotted the minor conversion work on the dread, love how you've #spread the arms and covered with 'tubing to hide the gaps, what did you use is it guitar wire?

dezul Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 yeah the bases are plaster covered with GW snow effect.. their just over the top of sand and static grass with a small area on each base of wet effect. supposed to look like sping time thaw with the wetness. its kinda hard to make out in the pix coz of the poor quality. im not overly happy with the effect to be honest, ive since seen a much better way of using snow effect. eh too late <_< yeah the pose on the dread was achieved using guitar string and some wire.. pretty much drilled the holes in the arm and the torso then spent aaaages trying to get them all to marry up in the right spots.. wasnt too bad tho. ive got a chaplain dread as my ven dread that i finished the other week in my sig gallery somewhere.. cheers again for the feedback.

feuer_faust Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 That is one monstrous recipe... I simply do: -Beasty Brown -Dwarf-flesh -2-3 coats of Bone and pray. ;) Very nice greens. ARe the reds more highlighted then they look? They seem very.. flat as opposed to the rest.

dezul Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 ARe the reds more highlighted then they look? They seem very.. flat as opposed to the rest. yeah they are, its basically black, scab red then mixed up to blood red.. their actually probably the most striking part of the model which totally doesnt come out in the pix.. im gonna reshoot the army at 1500pts and ill spend a little more time getting it right ;) glad someone noticed that Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/85828-750pt-deathwing-army/#findComment-994631 Share on other sites More sharing options...
feuer_faust Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Yeah, I dunno what it is with those dang-blasted reds... they can be simply stunning in the flesh, but never in the flash. (Get it? Haw!)

Sandalphon Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 They look great Dez, always liked their scheme, red usually makes dA generally look christmassy but you've done a good job avoiding that.

Molgorain Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Nice, I have been thinking about painting the same DA succ-chapter. But never liked the split colour, on the termy heads. But your result with red helmets, I like it. Going too borrow that idea, from you :cuss But putting a white stripe, on the veteran sergeant helmets.

Going too borrow that idea, from you :P But putting a white stripe, on the veteran sergeant helmets. dude im flattered, and as a matter of fact i might actually borrow THAT idea off you.. im gonna do a test on the next termi i paint and see how the white stripe works out. good idea :D hi dezul can i ahev your opinion on theses plz he looks really good dude. i like how youve done the red, definately diging the depth in the shading :) i like how youve freehanded the tactical symbol on too. im not a big fan of transfers.
