I hate to nitpick, but the insets of their shoulder guards are green, when for Salamanders they should be black; as it is, they look more like Aurora Chapter...?

Otherwise, great models!

bah nitpicker! :smile.:  erm... the black pads are on the marines inside? can i get away with that?

The following link is 1/ not my work, 2/ a French blog & 3/ not really an army showcase but I think you will be able to pardon me after seeing it. After all, the purpose of this thread is to motivate and inspire !

Lovely Salamanders I did mine brighter, but i'm curious how did you do the gold? I really like the color its not as brassy as some but not obnoxiously gold either..

 

 

Cheers dude! After some digging I managed to find my old WIP thread - green recipe is in there somewhere

I didn't want to start a new topic for this so I felt this was an appropriate place to ask.

 

I know the salamanders have a few "suspected" successors, but for a DIY project is a Salamanders successor considered taboo? or  is it reasonable.

 

thanks,

Not at all. as soon as I get my Inheritors photographed I am putting them up in this thread..... It's just a matter of figuring out where I put my camera in my recent move.

Thanks man, as I said in your thread your salamanders were an early inspiration for me to paint Sallies :D

I like the bright green you have used on those terminators. I have always thought that sallies looked good in bright green, but have not been able to bring myself to painting them bright green. Not sure why that is :confused:

heh,

 

Lots of the people I've talked to that i play with don't like it - I think it distinguishes them from Dark Angels though or Raptors or other Green Chapters.  It looks nice on darker table tops though and seems to do okay as a display piece.  I'm not the best painter but i like how they turned out, so thank you.

The shoulders are Forgeworld - its Pricy but I  really like how they look.. I have them on almost everything salamander.. I think i probably should have done like just Sargent..but i dont spend money on much else other than Warhammer these days..so..heh.

 

the drake hide is actually made by an ebay seller named Spellcrow (hope i dont break any rules)  -they were perfect for what i was looking for..

 

..and thanks.
