I'm working on a long-term CSM commission, and I want to share the pics with you all! Instead of cluttering up this subforum with posts each time I get a new unit done, I'll put 'em all in here. When I've finished this commission I'll have painted all of the models below (and some more!) to my Trooper Level, which is my lowest level. It's basically above-tabletop level.

30 Chaos space marines
10 Raptors
10 Possessed
3 Rhinos
1 Helbrute
1 Heldrake
1 Vindicator
1 Predator
1 Defiler
5 Terminators
1 Maulerfiend/Forgefiend
2 Terminator Lords
1 Daemon Prince
2 Chaos Spawn

So yeah, I'm gonna be busy busy busy!

Here's what I've done so far:

One Rhino:


10 Chaos Space Marines ( I had trouble getting the camera to focus):



I'll be painting up 10 Berzerkers, a Termi lord, and 3 Obliterators next. The Oblits are gonna be a little annoying as they're "Finecast" models, and have some casting defects, that, while fixable, are really annoying.

Let me know what ya'll think!

Well, by my math I should've gotten some comments by now....Are these guys really that boring?

I think they look great, keep up the good work!

Beautiful! Really like the purple

Nice crisp paint job. Keep up the great work.

I Agree, they look great! really clean looking too, the bases aren't too shabby either.

Definatly not, I think these gents looks great. I'm a sucker for the old fashioned "split-screen-marine"-look. One rarely sees them these days, let alone on Chaos. Kudos to you for a good execution!

Thanks for the comments, ya'll! Hopefully I'll have a Termi lord done in a few days time for you guys to look at.

Cheers!

Interesting scheme. Works surprisingly well, though!

Love the purple with ice-blue, very striking.

I too applaud your use of the blue shades on the topknots; it's a terrific contrast.

The purple is excellent. It's a very distinctive look.

Very striking color combination Tim?, nicely done.

This is damn fine work for the lowest level of quality! I LOVE the color scheme!

I'm surprised how much I like the purple...very nice work.

Will be most likely stealing this scheme when I finally buy the DV set. Love the contrasts.

I agree, my first thoughts were crisp also.

One Rhino:

VERY impressive color scheme. Subtle edge highlighting.

My only complaint is that OSHA would not allow chains on the outside of push-to-exit doors. That would trap the passengers inside and is against code.

These look really nice. Good luck with te rest

Very nice indeed!

Nice Work!

Right, after a long period of getting other stuff out of the way, I managed to get the first Terminator Lord!




Enjoy!

Just Lich Purple plus white!

Awesome cheers man. I'm doing a purple chaos army and love the colours you've got going on.

This appeals to me. It has the right feel to it. Good job and excelent tabletop standard paitning (IMO its tabletop and its not meant to downgrade your painting in anyway. On the contrary, its very well done).

I like how you stay clean and use the light blue as a third complimentary color. Very nice choise for that.

Beautiful!

Righto! Finished the 2nd batch!


I gotta say, the Obliterators are really showing their age.

More Marines!

Group shot! They look good together. I'm really looking forward to having all of the models in this army done so I can get a army shot.

The next batch will be all the rest of the tanks and the Forgefiend.

Enjoy!

Sweeeeet. Love the scheme and wish I could paint to anywhere near your standard.

Wow.. These are fantastic! What God are they aligned to? ;D

Unaligned, though I think they'd be great for Slannesh.
