Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?
|
Nice! Only thing I'd suggest is adding some more intense colour somewhere (maybe the lens?), at the moment he looks great but a little plain.

I would have painted the blue glow in his eyes too. Looks good though. I quite like the frame on your pictures btw.
One question : is there something wrong with the base trim on the third photo ? Or is it some kind of sig or marking ?

Wow it looks great. The red writing on the top kind of looks like blood spatter to me, though. Not sure if there's a fix for that or if you even want to bother. Not my model after all.

Back to the boys of the cog. Squad of rangers has been sitting built (well, sub- assembled) and primed on the desk for a bit and their time has finally come. They still look sooooo WiP but they've actually already had about 10 hours done. Metalwork and mechanics and the woodwork is down and shaded. Sweet mercy all that brass filigree took forever. So much detail on these boys. I don't ever really do massed squads in one go more than 3 or 4 figs but thought I'd do it for these boys. Next up is to do their pressure suits them onto their robes after that

Hmmm, short of a Primarch I don't seem capable of spending 10 hours on a squad. But your results are well worth the time spent.

Cheers Archer. I reckon they'll probably take about 20-25 in total for the whole squad. Robes are much quicker than filigree as it's just lots of glazes. Then lens, final highlights and weathering. oh - and then basing......hmmmm.
