Right! Almost finished painting my first batch. I'm pretty proud of them. They just need some more highlighting on the cloth and a couple of details here and there (eyes, plasma gun). Note the stubble I gave a couple of them: I really like the unshaven look!

Enjoy!

Edit: Man, these pics suck, haha. I'll try and make some better ones, soon. (:

They suck!


Nah, you know I love ya. I actually really like them, and knowing you they will get pupils (cause now they look like zombie guard). I absolutly love the tiny map, with the grid on it and a road or river or something. The basing works really well as well.

As for the pictures, they are a bit over exposed/over lighted. It might be easier to controll this by shooting them (in the face...no wait...ehm) with artificial light. That makes it easier to control.

Love the guy with the bionic arm and the front armour. Loads of cool details, the unshaven faces, the weapons - but the bit that caught my eye was the map/data slate that one of the guys is carrying - excellent.

Cheers Laney cheers

Arachas! Awesome paintjob. It is great fun playing against you with actually painted models. I do not remember one game we played in which that happened before. I trust the paint is fire proof? Keep it up baby!

"Mad Sparrows"? Crazy as a bat I say!

I'll be seeing you soon my apprentice.

Regards. Major Sturmm

The pupils make them look... human. Sad No more creepy renegades in my mind! HAHAHA!

Excellent job... and amazing pictures. Thanks for sharing. Can we have some more? Just Kidding

Excellent overall look - nice subtle conversions (e.g. the ammo packs on locke). Colour scheme is ace. Keep them going in the campaign they deserve the opportunity to redeem themselves in the eyes of the Emperor!

Keep them coming (eyes really improve the look Smile )

Laney cheers

Pics for the faithful commentors! Making some EL-E-VA-TION! for my gaming table. Wink





@Kiwi: Dark Flesh, Dwarf Flesh + Bestial Brown, Dwarf Flesh, Elf Flesh, Chestnut Ink, touch up with Elf Flesh. The '5 o'clock shadow' is Codex Grey + Catachan Green. This is why the models take so long, I am far too picky. I've tried going for less perfectionism, but I find I simply enjoy painting my models as best I can! Thanks for the compliments, though. (:
