I've taken a short break from my painting guides to finally make a start on my Shadowspear models. When Intercessors were released I thought Space Marines couldn't get any better – but then along came the Vanguard...

It's been nice to get back to the Raptors and try out some tweaks to the scheme I had in mind for these models. This is a test model so I hope you like what I came up with!

That paint job is fantastic! Love the smooth colour transition!
What colours did you use for the green? Been trying to work on a squad of raptors mysel!

Thanks Wezex! I did a step by step on the green armour on my website: https://www.themightybrush.com/tutorial/how-to-paint-raptors-space-marines/

Amazing work again, Luther.

I wondered how someone gets that good at both the painting and the photography, then I checked your site. Ouch! I may well employ your glowing eye technique. Thanks for sharing it.

Frigging amazing, man. I have nothing worthwhile to say, but that, in all honesty. Not much of a model painter or anything. But I just had to say something. Keep up the amazing work! Also, the Raptors are awesome. My own chapter The Shades of Persecution are a lot like them but more CQC focused and more of a 'warrior' philosophy than a 'soldier' one (working more as individuals that in squads etc)

Sorry. Looking great!

Wow great job, a true inspiration.

Wow that's some very excellent painting.

**Singleton Mosby**

That's some amazing painting. I would have believed you if you said it was a 54mm model.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I really appreciate it!!
