Assult squad, i think its illegal? power wepons and stuff?

Good to see people in yellow !!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2732629.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2732629.page GMT Hi all; Imperial Fists player looking for a bit of help :) OSL, which I haven't managed to get right.

One bit of advice: the cape on the model that has the back banner looks limp and needs some support. Using greenstuff by itself has this problem. Since you've got the milliput, use it to make a 'skeleton' in the basic shape and waviness you want the cape to be, then after it's completely cured put a layer of GS over it, building it up little by little until it's the shape and size you want it to be.

Whatwhat has an amazing tutorial in the P&M tutes regarding simple and effective GS techniques. The cape/cloak technique I described above is taken directly from it and is treated in greater detail there. Try making chain using his technique and use it to border termie pauldrons - an awesome and simple technique with great results.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2732754.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2732754.page GMT Re:Hi all; Imperial Fists player looking for a bit of help :)

Thanks it means alot
just one thing, what does OSL mean ?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2734079.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2734079.page GMT Hi all; Imperial Fists player looking for a bit of help :) OSL is object source light, its usually painting glows from light, here its the glowing effect the chaplins eyes have on the helmet.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2734206.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2734206.page GMT Hi all; Imperial Fists player looking for a bit of help :) EDIT:^ Beat me to it. OSL means object source lighting. Painting light or glowing effects comming from an object. eg. Your chaplain's eyes.
Nice job on the Fists by the way.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2734209.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364802/2734209.page GMT Hi all; Imperial Fists player looking for a bit of help :)
