Subject: [ 40K - Gimp ] 108th Drogan Palisade

Drop Trooper with Demo Charge
|
Hello;
In total agreement with Digits (AMMOBUNKER home), we have decided that I join the Drogan.
Here his subject : http://s3.zetaboards.com/The_Ammobunker/topic/7018571/1/
Digits do especially the 22nd Drogan Voltigeurs (he created his own codex), so he asked me to choose one of the other sections of the army, so I chose the 108th Drogan Stockade (ie, planetary defense of Drogan).
I will try to reproduce his best color scheme as well as infantry vehicles (my way of course).
Here are the first two recruits a squad of ten foot (I'm pretty happy with the result):
That, for the moment.
What do you think? Is this a good start? The idea of this cooperation as you please?
Thank you.
PS: Tomorrow I leave on vacation for a week so poses little painting).

I like the red/green glasses, at least that guy will be able to see in 3D.

But what humor ... if there is a green bezel is there a reason! Besides, it is not even a glass of the helmet is a kind of small screen because it is the man who handles the radio ...
Thank you.

I like them.
Even ignoring the head swaps, it's amazing how different the troops look with a completely camo scheme. While it makes perfect sense to camouflage as much as possible, most people seem to limit it to the fatigues, painting the carapace armor in a single color.
How does the camo look on the tabletop? It's very nice up close, but I feel like a pattern that small might be lost when viewed at arms' length.

ça fait quand même lunettes 3D
I really like the concept of a cooperative army building, it seems to be a great project.
I also like your realistic camo scheme, nicely done  .
So, what's next?

If you are trying to give the one guy a HUD, you need to make it pop out alittle more. It kind of looks like just a red paint misshap. Everything else looks nice

Oadie : That is correct, but held camouflage (for me) must be complete!
The view from afar is not so bad ...
Hyenajoe : Pictured is true we do not see any spectacular but the figure we can see that there is a screen in front of the bezel  .
Yes the project is likely to be very nice!
To follow, there is a Manticore, a valkyrie and the rest of the squad.
JDM : you mean it lacks depth?
Thank you!

Some simple highlights would ad depth, you just need a thin tipped brush and a steady hand. About 3 colours working up to a spot of white works well.
Here is an example: (sorry if it seams i'm thread jacking, just thought it might help)

Hum agree!
Basically, to red for example, should I leave a red, then went through the orange and finally a little white?
Complicated, but doable, I'll try!
Thank you  .

How many troopers in the squad?
Is there any specific marking on the Drogan vehicles?

There are ten men in the squad.
For tanks on the sides, there is a white band and red band (with a skull inside).
Thank you!
