Thanks for the feedback, i was at relatives all day, but i have a little time to touch up my most recent model (It was incomplete when i took the photo of the first combat squad) Ill keep the white helms, i recently got a congrats from my nan, kept telling me to get good at painting or it would be a horricfic waste of money, and a back in the day .. yada yada :3 so im feelin good XD

White helms will stay, and im currently thinking ahead to what my company champions gonna look like >.< one step at a time though.

Agreed. I like the white helmets. If you're concerned about the fluff at all, just make sure when you do your vets/elites that you give them some demarcation on their helmets to show that they're vets. Laurels, diff color, etc. The Blood Angels are a really good example of this, as their rank and file troops have red helms, devastators have blue, assault yellow, vets white, honor guard gold.

Keep it up!

Update:

Two more marines coming out of the paint line =P *Vrrrr, Pssh*



Heh heh .. Right, i wanted to put some spotlight on my Heavy in this update, u decided to do the rocket the same as the armour, but reversed clours, and it worked really well, he fits in perfectly with the scheeme, and stands out at the same time.



(Details)


Just a tip, DUCK! x3

Hope to get the FINAL THREE done way before the weekend, then crack on with my comand squad <3

Moving right along... nice effort!

Touch up those eyes (focal point) plus basing and you'll have a fine army there in no time..

awwh >.<, eyes, my one true weakness!

*Picks up a model* But i cannot fail!

*A Spare unused model that is, practice practice practice*

This is a large update. On a relitivly Small Scale Relitivly, i have noticed, after directing a few freinds of mine to the site. that i genraly make a big deal out of one model >.>;;;

Well, i do paint everything as an individual o.o;; I regret nothing! >.<

So i made a point of finishing the whole tactical squad before my next update. And here it is!!!



These are the last three! thank you lord, i thought i would have left by the time i finished them all



Here is Company Champion Astrador ~ I name all of my models, each and every one, and i keep a storylie of all my battles, just jot them down afterwards, Who killed what, any heroics, anyone needing battle damage ect. It just keeps the whole thing more ... ummm, Intamate? More Involved?

Anyway, i have been playing with two webcams, and i combined ones good lightsourse with one's quality, using one as a lamp, i Realy made use of the tools at hand, and got a great shot of Astrador.



Just thought i could use it to note the Difference in colour from my Veterans and Comand to my Tactical Marines. As you can see, i went for a soft grey that went with (What i think) as my soft blue. and to make them seem more Veterany, i added a silver outline to the edges, much like my hard line highlighting. and it worked. In case your wondering, Charadon Granite Base, then add skull white for hard line highlights. then go over with silver. i think it worked quite well

So here is my current Roster, 'Acting Captain' Astrador is at its head until i can get around to painting the spare model for him, Or in fact, i have had an idea to make one really ~ Meh, ill be playing around with a few things .



Hoping that one doesn't stretch the page horisonatly ^-^;;

Anyway, Chao! <3

Quick update, HEctic, Packing to go ^-^

I made a final burst to finish these guys, i really enjoyed painting them, crudy webcam because i have been tidying everything up, Sorry for the quality, at least you can see the general looklike of what i have put together, I have a Looooooong time away, so posibility is that this thread will have 'gone under'? by the time im back (6 weeks) BUT, i will be sure to do finishing touches, and put the Comand squad, and maybe the Tactical squad. In the galery so you can see each of them in Detail.

Anyway, thanks for keeping with the thread, Love you all! XD

Any coments would be loved, maybe i can come back to them, thanks to everyone who gave sugestions on the eyes too. Im probably going to leave the banners Plain, Just Chapter Colours At the moment.

Its been a plesure, ta paint and post, see ya all later ~
