Raziellycas Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Heil Brothers, finally I've complete another man of my army, I didn't paint a lot in this last times, to busy with a lot of personal problems... I've also lost my skills for me but anyway you'll judge... here is Sergent Akram of the first tactical squad of my army the ++ Clockwork Ravens ++ let me know what you think about him... PS: Sorry for the dark pics http://www.thenameless.it/clockwork%20ravens/sergent%20akram.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rymeer Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Very nice model and paint job Raziellycas... I have only a couple of things I would have done different, or would suggest you think about perhaps adding to your model... both Minor Details to be sure. First, I would have painted the wreath on the Power Fist some other color, say that nice red of the cloak? or a good dark green perhaps? Second, I would have picked out the skull on the right shoulder pad with Bleached Bone and Bone White. I realize it's a metal plate, but Space Marines seem to add skulls and such to their armor a lot, and most are made either of real bones, some bone-like material, or some material that's colored the same as weathered bone. It's your model, but perhaps you might want to give the whole thing a good looong look for other details that might be highlighted, picked out in contrasting color(s), and other such detail work. I've found that detail can and does get noticed by someone picking up your model for closer examination. The more time you spend on details, the more favorable responses you'll get.

Callas Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 And he's back! :) I love this one as I do all of your models - extra cables on the Fist, yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rymeer Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 first: It's for the paint scheme I've choose... black and gold but anyway I understand your ideasecond... maybe I will change it in bone color Indeed. I understand. My comments were only to point out things I thought could use improvement. Not demands on your time, efforts, or inventiveness. And I did comment, didn't I, that the figure looks really good? Just my suggestions. This is Forums after all. Rymeer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderXenock Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 great... now someone is using the chapter symbol I was.. and I thought I was being unique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonmasterPeter Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I'm inclined to agree with Rymeer, at least on the wreath. Even painting it in one of the other colors of your scheme (silver?) would help, just to make it stand out y'know? That said though, I like everything I've seen of your army, and this is no exception. Well done and please keep it up :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penitent Dreadnought Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 great... now someone is using the chapter symbol I was.. and I thought I was being unique What, the biohazard symbol? Warning of something unclean? It's not so unique among Death Guard nowadays, but it is very much an oddity among the Loyalists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziellycas Posted July 4, 2006 Author Share Posted July 4, 2006 great... now someone is using the chapter symbol I was.. and I thought I was being unique :lol: Well truly YOU are using my symbol, I'm older than you here ^_______^ anyway if you think that griffon games make decals of it well someone other us are still using it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamez Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I realy good job, From what I can see,you havent lost much painting skill at all. I agree withthe comments about the wreath on the power first, though, even if you just paint it in the grey/black you use on the other half of the marines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHalifax Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I like this, the extra cabling on the powerfist and the muzzleless bolter are nice touches :) The armour, flesh and banner are nicely painted but id agree with the points made about the details on the power fist :blush: Plus the biohazard symbol looks quite cool.

deathletterslovethreats Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Not meaning to be funny, especially with being new and all, but what, thematically, does a biohazard symbol have to do with either clockwork or ravens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyinghippo Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I've always loved your army... Only thing I'd change is make the skull/wreath on the powerfist silver to make it match the shield and stand out a little bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-][-Danek-][- Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Sorry about the lateness of this reply.You knew I'd have something to say though! :o Love the depth of the red in regards to the cloak,and the model is truely top notch. I do agree with the comments about the wreaths and skulls though.They would certainly help the model "pop" more. Incidentally Raz,what ever happened with your GS attempts?I loved the Necromonger look that you were planning to adopt for the Clockwork Ravens.
