OK, this is what ive got photo'd of a Termie SGT for the Raven Guard chapter, for a crusade army im building:










C&C is very much appreciated, as im a pretty new 40k painter

The lighting is weird, but the face looks very well done. Keep at it.

sorry, using my desk lamp, and the indoor setting on the camera..

so the face, in reality looks abit more corpse-like.. since its pretty hard for me to pull off the "pale skin" and dark hair of the RG at this point

I think that you pulled off the pale skin and black hair quite well.

Hey, nice work. Blood looks a little bit fake though, but the face is amazing.

an honest question here, how would you make the blood look abit more "real" ???

splatter it on with a stiff brush rather than paint it on, which I assume you did.

yeah... but i actually just painted over it, since i did the whole blood thing while drinking... and now that im sober, it didnt look all that good.. so ill just stick to my battlefield grime

ok, some more work done on the termie SGT, hes got abit of a balance problem since he's not based yet. i think that im to the point where all i really have left is getting the base done up right and he'll be ready for war













C&C is always welcome and appreciated

Great way to do blood is spatter it on with a toothbrush. Just be carful with ares you dont want hit.

Nice job. I would be inclined to have the thunder hammer angled down a little more so it's pointing a little more forward, but that is just me.

Sorry just realised he was leaning backwards - didn't have me glasses on. So I'm guessing the hammer will probably be pretty much where I would have it.
