I really like the way these are turing out, makes me wish i did my deathwatch squad in truscale.

More updates:

Painting WIP, still needs lighting the armour, painting the sword, more detailing, highlights... a lot of work to do yet.



Blood angels shoulder pad (not finished yet)

Nice work , it has always bothered me that space marines are not to scale, i thinks its why i like karl kopinski art so much, he seems to get the scale right to me. you should build an imperial citizen or guard to show there real height.

That looks awesome! Cant wait to see the whole squad together.

Good afternoon,

First of all: Trilobite, Commander Cain, tekk_45, neil101, thank you guys!

I have continued painting and I wanted to try new techniques, so I tried source lighting. It's not finihed yet, but anyway, what do you think? I'm not sure about the lighting sword, maybe I will repain it.



Greetings.

The lighting has worked very nicely although you may want to put a bit on the sword hand also

I cant get over how great your work is! Your painting is so crisp and clean!

The source lighting is fantastic, but the lightning on the sword lets it down... Other than that, is this going to go to Golden Demon?

Commander Cain: You are right, I'm adding more lighting in the sword arm
tony_nids_10: Thanks!!!
DapperAnarchist: I wasn't happy with the sword, so I'm painting it again (with more light!!!)

I will upload more photos soon.

Looks amazing so far, can't wait to see the whole squad done up!

Nice work. i like the glow that the sword is casting on the stone you latest marine is standing on. nice attention to detail.

How long have you been working with modelling/sculpting? I'm guessing a while given the detail on the shins etc?

Nice work! Very smooth true scaling!

Not sure how i missed this. Some really nice looking stuff, I love true scale marines. Keep it up!

This squad is my first sculpting work.

Ozymandias, sennacherib: Thank you guys!

Hits_the_spot: Thanks, I'm following your true scale marine post. They look awesome.


I've re-painted the lighting sword, what do you think about it??

Wow, that lighting is awesome! Congratulations!!

yea must agree that lighting is great

I hope your going to do one of the DW Heavy bolter with Suspensor marines. That would be awsome.

Long time without posting due to work, sorry. First of all thanks for your comments guys.
The few time i have had, has been for painting this witch king on fell beast for my girlfriend's birthday. She is really happy



The With King himself. The cloak has been painted using back mixed with blues:



As the model was bought on ebay, there was a claw missing, so I had to model it with green stuff, giving it a more dynamic pose than the original one.



Another shot:



And finally the base:



On the other hand, I can advance that I'm working on another member for the Death Watch squad: a termi, maybe in heresy armour. Moreover, I'm reading Horus Heresy novels and this has inspired me to model a true scale in a completely standing pose Garviel Loken. As soon as I have some time, I will upload some WIP photos.
Take care readers!

Nice deathwatch!

amazing stuff. i love your GSing work keep it up!

Amazing lighting effect, although as someone said, the actual detail on the sword does not do it justice. I find that painting some darker blue onto the blade shows up the lightning better (I just painted a lightning sword so you can check it out on my blog).

Nice work on the witch king I like the leathery look of the fell beast.

Yeah, I'm not happy with the lighting effect on the sword (too dark, as you said). I have seen your work, and it's great! I will try to repaint it in a similar way. Thanks!

brilliant stuff man! I like your greenstuffing a lot, and the progress you've made makes me keep coming back

wow, nice paintjob.

I really like the glow effect coming off the sword

Good night!
As I said the other day, my parallel project: Gavriel Loken from Horus Heresy novels. It is another true scale SM, still very WIP.

I will have to ask this but is it possible to get a copy of the completed Loken model? a Friend of mine is a fanatic for him.

Certainly I was thinking about casting it. Some months ago I experimented with resine casting, so I will give it a try and if I get decent results I will comunicate it here in the post. So stay tunned

He looks a bit static ATM but that could have something to do with the fact that he has no arms

Commander Cain wrote:He looks a bit static ATM but that could have something to do with the fact that he has no arms

I wanted to make him static, standing with the bolter in one hand and the helmet in the other. Something like a statue, showing the elegance of a space marine in his full height (it sounds poetic... XD)

Nice work! I love the light effect on the deathwatch-dude!
