Gyson_Vore Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Well, as they are two different marines, it's hard to tell if anything is different, but from my view the color is alot cleaner, and looking rather nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night-Stalker Posted June 1, 2006 Author Share Posted June 1, 2006 I can post pictures of the same as on the old pictures later, Im on a slow connection so it takes forever to upload a picture. They will be up sometime during the weekend I think, depends on what mood Im in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedoomsayer Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 actually...i kind of like the old one better. the blue on the new one is too...striking for my taste. Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmato Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I like the new one, very bold, but why did you change? I suppose the last one looks a bit chalky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertz Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 striking and a little to "smurfy" :lol: good improvement on quality, and SM are supposed to be painted in bold heraldic colours... but will you learn to do some highlightning? please? ;) now, what is your theme with the army? en bra b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironloki Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Not sure I like the orange eyes - clash a bit much in my opinion, but looking nice :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinohai Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 i do like the newer darker version altho the older one looked good also. it depends on taste perhaps. i just prefer darker bolder colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night-Stalker Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 now, what is your theme with the army? All infant. Thats the way of the army. Vehicles are banned ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StratoKhan Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 The new one is more suggestive of Night, IMO. The orange eyes are maybe not the way to go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maladon Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Well the new scheme looks okay, but it looks like the staff members squad from games day here in the US but without the dark angel shoulder pads. maybe codex gray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night-Stalker Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 maybe codex gray? On the shoulder pads instead of the black? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artimis Vergadin Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 A vast improvement from your old one, but still I'd say go darker. Right now they look more like "daytimeposiepickers" rather than night stalkers. Very promising though. <_< Artimis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazal Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 The second scheme, nice simple and solid. And keep the orange eye, tell people it's a nod to Deathstroke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night-Stalker Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 And keep the orange eye, tell people it's a nod to Deathstroke Thank you :blink: But I fell that I need to defend my eyes a little bit. They are Yellow, but with orange under. The model on the picture idd have orange eyes due to only one layer of Golden Yellow. But when they are 100% finished they will have like 3 layers of Yellow on the eyes. Currently im not even painting the eyes due to little time left to a Mega Battle that is coming up at the local gaming club. 2000p in 14 days :P impossible for me, have to write 2 short stories and alot of stuff. Damn the school :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Knight Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I would suggest go darker with the blue, and make the grimmer, they looks way to ultra smurfy at this point. Possibly Midnight blue over white basecoat? Other than that it looks alot cleaner and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night-Stalker Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 I would suggest go darker with the blue, and make the grimmer, they looks way to ultra smurfy at this point. Possibly Midnight blue over white basecoat? They sure do look Ultra. Might be because i played Ultra before :P They are Ultra Blue on the top layer. Maybe go with Regal Blue, Blue Ink, Midnight Blue (or some other semi-dark blue) That would darken them some. Well they will look like this until 17/6 atleast and after that I might change them. Just love to repaint my models, or not :wacko: Grateful for all the help I have recieved. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Knight Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 i think the regal blue would be a good idea too, or maybe a black ink was could darken it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night-Stalker Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 I think I will test with Regal Blue. But I think I will stick to Blue Ink, really like the tone it gives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night-Stalker Posted June 5, 2006 Author Share Posted June 5, 2006 A little update. Was bored today so I got down to the shop and got my first box of plastic Scouts. They are WIP but this is what I have acomplished today. Todays work I have put on the basing, but the pictures are taken before that. And since I'm lazy and on a dial-up connection there is no pictures of them there, not yet that is. EDIT: I've got myself some Jay Leno's now ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
