ikik Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Well I entered the librarium painting competition and said I'll paint 1 tactical squad, Raven Guard Telion convert and sicarius this is going to be a bit of a problem cuz I'm an realy slow painter I've already made my RG test mini and started on Sicarius, I got the tactical shoulder pads :lol: but I also lost the blade from sicarius and I'm working on converting him and still keeping him WYSIWYG I'll be using a tactical sarge plasma pistol and the AOBR captain's sword ( shame on me for destroying such a great mini :down: , Telion is comming together real quick he's nearly done and I just started him yesterday :lol: here's the raven guard test model: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3238/3102615657_4ce5f8f024.jpg?v=0 http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3085/3103448836_2072033b65.jpg?v=0 http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3120/3103449320_638aa98491.jpg?v=0 Sicarius: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3166/3103446546_10f504b2f3.jpg?v=0 http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3001/3102613317_a4577c13ee.jpg?v=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustermaker Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 The painting looks great, but I would take off the U off of him since he is supposed to be Raven Guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snozz Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 The painting looks great, but I would take off the U off of him since he is supposed to be Raven Guard. Don't think he's counts as. Just a regular Sicarius. If you get regular supersmurfs. With uber instant death blades of death. Well you know what I mean. :) Looks good though a thin wash of Badab Black might make the Raven Guards armour look better. EDIT: Fixed Quote.

Mal Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Personally i'd fill the 'U' in with GS to make it flat and then paint/transfere the chapter symbol there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clausel Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Neat painting but I will recomend that you do some finer highlights on the black. And If you're up for it then start with a black and codex grey mix(50/50) and then pure codex grey. This will make it a very little blended and will make a nice finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narthecium Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Your raven guard looks very very good. I would run a light layer of badab black wash over his highlights, if you haven't already..will leave them there but make them a bit more subtle. Still, a very striking miniature!

ikik Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 thanks for the advice brothers, the Sicarius model is just going to be the good old smurf sicarius not raven guard, I will use your advice on the black (I hate painting black :D just can't get it right) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snozz Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Find the BIG iron hands tutorial (Search that under Tutorials) it has a good method for painting black. I've tried it, and it worked great, IIRC, it's basecoat black, highlight with some VMC paint or something (I used codex grey and chaos black 50:50), then fine highlights with codex grey (Very fine) and a liberal wash of Badab Black. Looked fantastic. Tutorial is by Kikkala, though I'm not sure I spelt that right. :D Keep up the good work. :cuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
