plasman Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hi folks, Generally speaking I don't use Hawk Turquoise paint often (do you ?), except for energy weapons sometimes, but last week I was overcome with a sudden urge to paint a space marine in Hawk Turquoise. Was it some warp influence? Or the Emperor's will? Whatever. I don't have a name for the chapter of this little guy. I guess Turquoise Hawks might be OK.

CorinoFan Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hawk Turquoise is one of my favourite colours in the GW range, just fairly difficult to use and keep the turquoise looking like it and not having the highlights overwhelming it. The Model looks good What was the shading and highlighting of the turquoise as that colour is hard to pull off well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasman Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Shading with a mix of 2/3rd Azurmen Blue and 1/3rd Thraka Green, highlighting with Hawk Turquoise mixed with a (small) bit of Space Wolves Grey. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Fatiswon Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 my long lost (purged) Fangs of the snake space marine chapter from the early 3rd edition used Hawk Turquoise for their helmets, elbow and knee pads.. in fact i was thinking about using it again for my Invaders to mark my Sargent models. I did find that i liked using bolt gun metal for the eye lens (IMO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
