Daemon2027 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I really thought the grey was resin, and I really couldn't work out what you were on about with the burning words. Now I look, it looks like paint. The red looks good to. I think a mix of both schemes would be good. The gal vorbak should be red I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Well, the red one with the black details is really something... But don't get me wrong, I really like to see your take on grey. This is a great project, can't wait for the next update! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonclaw Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 argh the indecision is catching ,i am not sure what colour to do the army now, but i am sticking with this scheme for the gal vorbak http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/ff899229-1023-467e-899b-fd3e81221321_zpsf2a7b986.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/44e6aafb-351b-4c1b-b605-d55238c490bc_zpsd1877f73.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/0c289157-a5f9-4bea-a788-fab164b7fdae_zps5e391e57.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/60a79443-6f83-499d-ae21-71a8fee076a2_zpseb61ff42.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/e7a08d00-55dd-43f9-8a22-61dbef2b35d8_zps713248df.jpg still some tidying up to do but you get the idea cheers DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Golem Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 They are incredible. In terms of colours, were I doing WB, I'd do the standard goons in the grey, and the elite units in the red. I'd use red trim on the grey to tie it in, and then you get the best of both worlds :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemon2027 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 They look really good. I thought the FW ones looked a little messy but you have nailed these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Brother 92 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Simply flawless brother... As mentioned above, if you don't want all red use it as an elites thing with shoulder trim to tie then together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Those Gal Vorbak... so good!! You've done such a great job with the Gal Vorbak colour scheme that I'd encourage you to use it across the whole force. Looking forward to some more :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strazhakov Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Amazing stuff mate! Love those Gal Vorbak among the best I've seen. Word Bearers were my first love as well and you really seem to do them justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 :blink: The definition in the claws is superb! You can actually understand what is going on: what is flesh, what is bone, what is tooth, what is armour and what is weapon! This is monumental work! Not to mention the fantastic use of blue as a spot colour! And the flames on the armour? Smoothest flames I've ever seen! I new this would be worth it! :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakuth Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 That's it. I'm never doing Word Bearers. If I did do them, I'd need to have a unit of Gal Vorbak, and there's no way, ever, that mine would top these. So it's not going to happen. Excellent work, brother.

daemonclaw Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 wow cheers guys colour me happy ,as i started the gal vorbak i wasnt sure if the idea would pay off. No words, those are just amazing looking...The flames on that one... thanx brother much appreciated They are incredible. In terms of colours, were I doing WB, I'd do the standard goons in the grey, and the elite units in the red. I'd use red trim on the grey to tie it in, and then you get the best of both worlds cheers mate this is looking the most likely idea ,unless i get another dose of the indecision bug They look really good. I thought the FW ones looked a little messy but you have nailed these guys. cheers bud ,i was going to use the FW ones as a guide but couldnt make out much so in the words of frankie " i did it myyyyyy waaaaaaayyy" Simply flawless brother... As mentioned above, if you don't want all red use it as an elites thing with shoulder trim to tie then together. thanx mate ,yep this is looking like the way to go Those Gal Vorbak... so good!!

Not to mention the fantastic use of blue as a spot colour!And the flames on the armour? Smoothest flames I've ever seen!I new this would be worth it! cheers cap much appreciated .i think forgeworld did an awesome job on the sculpts and they are a lot of work but a fun challenge as there is so much detail That's it. I'm never doing Word Bearers. If I did do them, I'd need to have a unit of Gal Vorbak, and there's no way, ever, that mine would top these. So it's not going to happen. Excellent work, brother. cheers sgt. go for it spread the word Very impressive, the Gal Vorbak; such fantastic models you have certainly done them justice mate. Really nailed them Gal Vorbak for the win!Impressive mate, what you got planned for the bases?And just see where your mood takes you when painting each marine...some red some grey lolKeep it up cheers bud ...bases i think are going to be rubble and bits and maybe a dark earthy colour to slightly contrast the grey and theres more the techmarines have been busy and got some heavy guns ready http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0589_zps317b9386.jpg and we have old freddy krugers big uncle built(head separate for painting) had to do a little repair work on the rear of his right shoulder pad but other than that its all good but boy were those claws fiddly!! http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0588_zps22acbd48.jpg and some more gal vorbak progress http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/dbff11f2-b80b-433d-a104-346ef1a56dc6_zps756c414f.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/d3812696-5218-4e0a-abf5-01e02090ce97_zpsa7de6e3c.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0586_zpsfbe08832.jpg thanx for your time guys cheers DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 The skin tones are somethign else no? could we have a close up of the heads?

Daemon2027 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I like the small bits of blue in the models, gives them a real unearthly feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChainMachete Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Yes fantastic work so far. Just got my Gal Vorbak, but haven't started on them yet because one of them was faulty. The model standing on one leg had a hollow leg - <1mm of resin and gaps at the foot/leg join. Very bendy (and it's the foot that attaches to the base) and some missing detail, so I've asked forge world for a replacement. I was planning on using green flames after seeing the forge world paint job (complementary colour for red and all that plus all my other Word Bearers have green eyes), but after seeing your photos I am drawn back to blue. Have you thought about changing any of them? I have 10 and don't really want any duplicates plus I want to model squad upgrades - power fist for the sergeant and a couple of tainted weapons for the squad. As great as the sculptures are, I'm not too sure how easy they will be to modify - very fixed postures and arms jointed at inconsistent places, making even basic arm swaps difficult.

I'm looking forward to see much more of your work. cheers gizur there will be more but it may be a bit slow to start The skin tones are somethign else no? could we have a close up of the heads?

daemonclaw Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 Awesome demons! cheers man i cant help thinking they would look so cool in your nightlords colours Really nice work! cheers man much appreciated now a bit of an update,i think i have settled with the main troop colour as grey and will go red/orange runes to match in and leave the red for elites etc as has been suggested by you kind fellows. here is how the main guys will look (just got to get word bearer shoulder pads)the third guy is effectively the finished scheme http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0592_zps4efb6ee3.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0593_zps7d59f238.jpg props to chaplain mortis for showing me the battle damage technique and pointing me to the backdrop picture http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/8a85f3fc-129f-4b84-96a9-d0f31a492144_zps397746d3.jpg and erebus himself what a detailed sculpt http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0594_zps62367cb6.jpg cheers DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
