Very busy lately but smooshed out a squad of termies.

The eyes are hard to see. I want my tertiary color to be purple but the horrible light in my rom makes it hard to see.



Some close ups so you can get a good feel for my lack of skill. These are " table distance" paint jobs


This one is my fav. I like his raised fist for some reason


Finally got some static grass. Basic base but it adds a bit of life.

Let me know what you think.

Looks great. Nice, clean work.

Yellow looks good, I always like to see a bit of red on IF, but the black works. I would be proud to put these guys on the table.

They look really nice. However, the yellow looks really plain with just black for a trim. Adding more colours where possible and maybe some weathering can make these look amazing.

Still, love what I see!

Nice and clean, but I think some squad/Chapter markings in white would really liven them up.

Big Fan of Tartaros Pattern, these look lovely and clean, a bit simple, but still effective.

Nice job so far, but with the black, they just look unfinished to me. I like the idea of red as well.

I feel like they need transfers or some kind of freehand on the black, but then they'll be good to go! They look really good.

Good points. I definitely need some chapter and squad symbols. I don't have any transfers. I should definitely order some. Something to liven them up. Perhaps I will even do some, ugh, weathering on my crisp clean Marines.

Personal taste but I won't be adding red. I guess it makes them pretty un-canon but I decided some time ago when I started my IF that they were not going to have red trim or chest Eagles. I probably should have done Marines Malevolent. IF was my favorite chapter about 7 years ago. The more that has come out since then fluff wise has made me like them less and their primarch seems a little on the... dull side, but I'm sticking with them!

Silly question...are the eyes painted? I don't mind the black but the miniatures as a whole need some contrasting colour somewhere. Maybe painted eyes and a decal or two? The minis themselves don't seem to lend themselves that well to small things where you can add colour.
