<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Urban Imperial Guard Scheme"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Urban Imperial Guard Scheme IG colour scheme so i thought i would give it a go myself.

Here are my first attempts, this is also the first time i ever tried a white basecoat and watered down my paints. And TBH i think i did a pretty good job

Comments and critique are very welcome, i haven't got round to doing the base yet as it was only a test, but i was suprised how good i managed to do it, you guys were right, thinner paint is MUCH easier to control.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202045.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202045.page GMT Urban Imperial Guard Scheme IG Urban Camo I have seen on here. It is not over done or to plain. With a bit of cleaning up it will look great in mass on an urban board. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202100.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202100.page GMT Re:Urban Imperial Guard Scheme

I also think you should try for a slightly different grey on there as a contrasting colour. Camouflage is designed to break up outlines and the very muted tones you've gone for don't appear to do that so well in the pictures (maybe the colours come out better in person).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202123.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202123.page GMT Re:Urban Imperial Guard Scheme I tried to drybrush a light layer of skull white on the armour parts to bring out the edges and make it stand out more from the camo but i still think it needs more.

For my second attempt i may do a lighter cloth part, possible a 1:3 or 1:4 chaos black to codex grey ratio to be more defining.

edit: Though i did want to make them blend from armour to cloth to make it look more real and, well camouflaged]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202161.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202161.page GMT Urban Imperial Guard Scheme http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202240.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1202240.page GMT Re:Urban Imperial Guard Scheme

I see you shaved the detail off the boots.... I think that was a good move on your part. Looks nice.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1203547.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1203547.page GMT Re:Urban Imperial Guard Scheme http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1203548.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270756/1203548.page GMT Re:Urban Imperial Guard Scheme

yours is looking Really nice! I'm working on a scheme just like this, but without the camo, just plain colors.
Its a snow/urban theme.
