-][-Danek-][- Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I've been planning to do this for awhile,but my laziness and worries my photography skills hindered me. :P But BlindHamster inspired me,so without further adieu,allow me to introduce my fellow marines here to Zero Company,my Deathwatch Strike Force. ;) I'll start with Titus,because I'm proudest of him.Titus is the Captain of my official Kill-Team,Kill Team Alpha. Titus was the first Deathwatch Marine I did many years ago,as you can plainly see.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/TitusV1.jpg Not the greatest work I've done,so recently I decided to redesign him.I tried to make him look more like the current line of Ultramarines,represent his status in his Chapter of origin as a member of the Honor Guard and all the while keeping his older look intact. This is the finished result. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/TitusV2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/TitusShoulderpad.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/TitusBackpack.jpg I'm pretty proud of him myself,and I feel like he looks more fitting for the leadership role on the battlefield. B) In time I plan on adding the rest of Kill-Team Alpha to this thread,so if you like what you see,keep checking back. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-][-Danek-][- Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 So quick are the replies! :P To Jimmy the Moose:The head is the same one from the original.It just fit him too well.lol I then attached the ponytail to the nape of the neck with GS. To IronLoki:I'll work on that.I think I have one in the "bad lighting" pics.lol To Vtraxx:Coming from you a compliment is high indeed sir! B) For the leather I used Scortched Brown and layered up to bestial brown along the edges.The metallics where basic chainmail highlighted with Mithril Silver.Except the Axe of Ultramar's blade.I used a 75/25 mix of blue ink and chainmail for the base,with a 75/25 mix of blue ink and mithril for the highlights. Thanks for the compliments,guys.They mean the world to me. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-][-Danek-][- Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 The left arm comes seperate from the body,so I just used a plastic arm(from the CSM sprue for the more archaic look) with the Deathwatch Icon. For Blood Angel players I have you guys covered too. This is Brother Santino,the only marine that Titus calls friend.Another member of Kill-Team Alpha. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/Santino1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/Santinocloseup.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironloki Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Love the face detail :P and the black looks really nice and deep. How did you do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-][-Danek-][- Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 To Ironloki:I use Delta Ceramcoat Satin Interior Varnish.It's a great brush-on clear coat to protect your minis,deepens and enriches the colors,and gives them a decent sheen. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked the one you posted in the 'Army Commander' thread - lovely detail on the face, but to be as white as that I'm presuming his origins are Raven Guard?

-][-Danek-][- Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 To Vengor:Yes,my personal character is from the Ravenguard. To Azrael:Ah!Infortunatly,I don't have a EPS in Zero Company,but I did make a promise to myself that every marine would be from a different Chapter(with a rare exception),so I'll see what I can do about that. :P To aznsk8s87:This is Brother-Sergeant Gideon,who leads Kill-Team:Beta(which in-game is a tac squad with DW upgrades). http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v158/Danek1354/Gideongreatshot.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vengor Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 For mine I've been pondering the idea of bionic limbs to show their 'time in service' if you will, especially for my Iron Hand toting the Heavy Bolter - do you plan anything similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
