Dramatic. I like them. I feel your pain. I am finishing up my DV boxed set and I somehow had to stupid idea to do angels of redemption. Yes, a split scheme to batch paint -_- I'm a dolt!
Batch painting is awful. I've tried it and utterly failed at it.
The sergeant looks great. I'm still not on board with the skull masks for some reason, so I prefer him to your first reiver. You're also so good at painting faces ...
I like how you've used that fiery orange on his plasma pistol. I've always thought the traditional GW blue plasma looked odd. To me, blue reads as cold.
I bloody love the skull masks. Not the skull helmets - they're to chaplainy - but the masks are one of my favourite bits about this kit.
Well. I've always prefered red/orange coils - it just looks better. But a blue flame is hotter than a yellow one so blue does actually make more sense (considering plasma is about a million degrees)
Wow ! Simply Wow!
ReplyDeleteThanks buddy!
DeleteVery cool. Enjoying following this new project of yours.
ReplyDeleteCheers! It's a nice change from the superconverted stuff. You need a break from all that sometimes.

ReplyDeleteOuch!
DeleteOh well - at least they're not harlequins!
These are so fappin' good mate, absolutely love the mood & palette on these guys
ReplyDeleteThanks mate!
DeleteSweet Cthulhu, that is a flippin' cool paint job. I've been so tempted to pick up some myself, but my wallet said "No". I've trained it well.
ReplyDeleteYou can always get the three reiver box! It's a lot cheaper if you only want to have a go at them.

The blue flame thing ... my rational brain knows this to be true. My irrational brain can't get past, red=hot, blue=cold :)
DeleteHaha! Yeah I know... It's just one of those things.
