So, i just finished my Blood Angels chaplian today, kind of proud of it and wanted to know what the community thought about it, so here it is:

P.S. I realised i did not "gem" the model or paint bullet holes on the bolter lol, good thing its unvarnished as of now thanks to the rainfall outside.

Looks really good man.

instead of painting a bullet hole, I would personally use a pin vice and drill out a small hole. looks more realistic

Some hilight to armour would be good and I dont think that red storm bolter fits on red coured army. Otherwise good job!

Well... I see some nice highlights and this is really nice model

Ah, my favorite chaplain model...

You did a good job. Table-top quality, looks clean and neat.

Nice tabletop job. I agree that drilling out the barrels is best. Gems paint up fast, too.

Looks excellent man, the Storm Bolter is probably worth drilling out. It, for me, is the only detail that disappoints.

Well done man, i am in the process of painting my BA termie chaplin at the moment, will post photos when he is done

thats nearly as good as the "pro" painted one i got off ebay last year,

its not actualy pro painted, but (i of all people managed to touch it up and add to it...)

but good job dude!

I am doing a little touchups to him, got distrated by my librarian model and my death company dreadnought, but i have re-visited him, once i drill out the barrel, and finish touchups i will repost. (Remember all i have painted thus far are necrons... base, drybrush, wash method, this is my first detail stuff...)

Until then, my librarian:

Well i touched up and revisted the chaplain...







...and my death company dreadnought.

That chaplain looks a million times better than in the original post. It's amazing how much difference tiny details make.

Good stuff!

I really like the dread. You did an awesome job highlighting it and the detail work looks really good. Gotta love the new model as well.

Thank you very much, all the models took me a lot of time, patience and tears lol

About 10-15 hours total time spent on the dread to paint it... i know i am slow

Ive still got mine in the blister awaiting production. But lets talk about yours The colors first of all are great, good choice for everything. I like the red casing for the gun, but dont really care for red barrels. I woudl recommend giving the bleached bone areas (that are supposed to be paper or honors) a wash of delvan mud and then going back an highlighting the edges with bleached bone. It will really make them stand out and look great. The highlights on your black look great as well!
