Hello my dear friends.As I have promised I am starting new army.This army will be about 5555(it is now 5000 but unpainted) pts.I will use Space Wolves codex.This army will have Titan.I will post new picture every 5-7 days.I want to create a new chapter,this chapter will have background like souldrinkers have.I want to make the chapter of the 21 founding( quite new,m42.007).They are not heretics.In an epic story of heroism,corruption and betrayal chapter master Constantine leads his chapter to victory.Constantine and his battle brothers have realized that imperium is doomed and they leave imperium.They start to build big space marines army(using chaos space marines armor sometimes)...White armour symbolizes their purity and black triangles and trim symbolizes rage.So here is my first marines.Which one did you like most of all???

I would be grateful if you could rate my paintjob from 1 to 10

Hello Constantine!
Well, I would rate your painting a 9.5. (I'm not sure if I've ever seen a 10, I think your painting is very, very good). You've done wonders with White, it's so clean and well defined!

If you leave the Imperium, you are a Heretic though. At least, from the Imperial perspective. But I understand what you mean, they do not follow Chaos and are not evil from a modern 20th century perspective, right?

Again, gorgeous models!

Thank you for your fast reply.They are good guys.They are like rebellions

And what do you guys think of this painting scheme

Which one is better???

I'd give your Painting a 7. It's unfair to give you near a 10, because although your Painting is great at a Tabletop Quality, it's not on par with some of the true Artists and their Showcase Pieces. As for which Scheme I prefer, I'd say the first is very like the White Scars, so unless you want that noticed and commented on repeatedly, the second is the way to go. For the record, though, on the basis of the Scheme alone, I do prefer the first. However, the Gold on the Aquila Eagle looks very thick and flat. It could use a Wash at least, to tone it down a little

they are just tactical marines i am painting my hq soon so i will try to get 10

Isn't this painting scheme worse then other space marines chapters

Constantine, you paint very beautifully! I do not know if my praises are excessive or not, but they come from the heart. Enjoy your art! You have a great gift!

--- Frankie

You are so kind.Thank you very much

Great work so far!! White is a tough color to get right and these guys are lookin ace!! Looking forward to seeing more, keep it coming.

Mike

1 to 10 rank I am going with a 7.5

nice models constantine, I can't wait to see more! i'd recommend the second paint scheme as the first one is nearly identical to the white scars space marines and if you want your own chapter i'd go for something that's not like anything mainstream, so, yes, the second paintjob is my personal favorite, I love the way you paint the white and then your blacklining is very neat, an entire army like this would look simply amazing on the tabletop! keep it up

The second scheme is much better, IMO
Due to the fact white is so hard to paint, and you have done it perfectly, 8.5/10
I can't wait to see your HQ

Thank you guys

If you want i can make nice tutorial on painting white armor

I only have white armor on my guardsmen, but if you could make a simple tutorial, that would be nice.

It takes me about 2 hours to paint 1 marine

Takes me 1 to 2 depending on how I do it. (for my Blood Angels)

Is red eagle ok???

Those are very nice looking, and both schemes are good. I personally like the first better, but as was said previously, it is very close to the White Scars. It might be interesting to see them somewhat combined though, like for the shins, have red on the bottom half and the black triangles on the top bit.

As far as painting quality goes, I'd say ~8 or so, the white is VERY well done, and a lot of the detailing is very good too. I'm especially liking the lenses/jewels and whatnot. Some of the lines are a bit wobbly for master quality, but look fine for tabletop.

Me and my parents are going to the countryside.Unfortunately we dont have internet there.I will be back in 1 week.See you soon guys1
P.S I am taking some miniatures with me

HEHE, there are so many words to describe your figures but dont know which one to use!

From what I've seen I would rate it about 8.5-9
You have very good skills!

Nice colour scheme, though the highlights are a little too extreme for my liking. Then again, you have conquered white (one day I'll do it....Damn you white!!!)

I like your spray fingers.

Really good paint job. I really like the scheme!

So here are some more guys

My chapter will have some imperial guard.I am thinking about painting scheme for them.If you have any ideas tell me.

Really nice work on the white, however the shoulder/legs marks could be a bit neater in places (the jaggered bits).

And wash your fingers!!!! haha

subscribed.

i would say the purity seal on that first marine's ankle needs to have the writing cleaned up a little bit, it dosent look as good as the purity seals on the other marines. it dosent live up to the standard you set by your other models.

thank you for your advise

what about marine with meltagun and imperial guardsman???

Constantine these are great, definitely an 7.5/8 out of 10. The Sergeant with the two C/Swords is brilliant, just different enough that you wont get the WS comment every time you play. As for the guardsman that really depends on your back story for them.

I think so long as you keep some details on both the marine and the guard they should tie into together very nicely.

Also forgot to mention that if you are going to be adding regularly this is best placed in the P&M blog section.

Wow. Yor models are really good. I'll be following this thread!

These are beautiful indeed, fine work, I seethe with envy.bubble with jealousy.

As this is a WIP I'm going to move this to the blog section as suggested.

I am using space wolves codex for them.Which codex do you find to be the best Space marines space wolves or blood angels-need your advise.I have tried all of them and i liked space wolves and blood angels most of all.Which one wold you prefer???I have army big enough to play both.Which one has the biggest potential.Help!!!

P.S sorry for my english

what do you think of robes?Both robes are made ofGreen stuff.

If you have armies big enough to play both why limit yourself? Any core units you field will be the same anyway so just do a few of the unique units incase you play either list.

I have a blood angels list army that i'm working on but at the same time I hope to field it as either a vanilla or DA when/If they get revised.

Best bet leave it open and plan for both, that way you can mix up the play style against opponents.
