Hi guys and gals,

Here are 3 of my complete Crimson Fists, im not painting an army of them at the minute as I have turned to everyones favorite, the Ultramarines! Actually I know they are not everyones favorite but I just love all of the back story to them. Anyway here are the Fists, hope you like them.

Mate this is great work!

They have some wonderful colouring and highlights. Well done!
Hopefully your Ultrasmurfs will look as good!

Always get jealous when i see crimson fist armies, wish mine turned out as well as these, good job

Those are really nice looking.

very nice! I really like the blues your using. keep up the good work.

really like the paintjob!
im curious about that sergeants face though, can you post a macro closup of his face?

Very nice!

Thanks guys. Im hoping to get some close ups of the faces when the camera batteries have charged

Looks great. Is that black with the blue highlight or just a really deep deep blue for the main armor color?

Its just Regal Blue, or whatever the equivalent is now, with a very heavy asurman blue wash over the top, i think i gave each model a couple of coats of the wash to get it very dark

Fantastic paintjob! I really like the dark base with blue highlights!

I really like how you did the fists. I just started painting some CF and had trouble getting the fists the colour I wanted. Did you use Mechrite Red base and Blood Red highlights?

looking real good !!!!!

Yes exactly like that but then a Baal red wash over the top once dry. Thanks for all the comments. I'll try and get those close up pictures done after work, if I can tear myself away from the other numerous projects I have going on

power to the crimson fists. Check out my blog and take a look of my fists so far.
Peace

Hi guys,

Here are the close ups of the sergeants face.

Kantor looks really nice, good job!

Those look nice and smooth, I like the weathered chapter symbols, great improve with either freehand or with a torn transfer.

No skill involved there Im afraid. Im rubbish at putting transfers on so it was torn while I was putting it on

But you made it work and it looks very natural. So congrats on pulling a homer there.
