Pea Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I posted some of these before the Great Downtime. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Pea_666/Warhammer%2040k/Deathwing/Deathwinggrouppic1.jpg I'm currently waiting for my mkIV dreadnought to arrive, and I'm assembling 5 more terminators. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Q- Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Wow nice. Everyone should check the link in your sig to see the closeups and WIPs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wulfgarr Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Really nice painting.I like how your deathwing are darker than alot you see that are bone white. From what i can see those bases are what im looking for(the way you did them).The only thing i can say that doesnt look right is the bottom of the drop pod.If you can i think you should go back over it and try to blend in the colors better.

StratoKhan Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Very nice Deathwing. From this distance it's hard to tell but they seem to have been painted very nicely indeed. Is that character a Master or a Librarian? As far as I can tell he looks pretty good. The streaks on the DropPod seem a bit crude though. Is it a scratchbuilt DropPod?

Pea Posted April 24, 2006 Author Share Posted April 24, 2006 Thanks guys! @wulfgarr: I changed that recently, it looks much better now believe me. ;) @StratoKhan: The character is a Librarian, considered by many the best HQ option for a Deathwing army. And yes, it is scratchbuilt. :) Finally, some close-up pics: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Pea_666/Warhammer%2040k/Deathwing/AssaultCannonTermies.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Pea_666/Warhammer%2040k/Deathwing/DeathwingLibrarian1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v150/Pea_666/Warhammer%2040k/Deathwing/DeathwingTerminator2Front.jpg All my termies will eventually receive pauldrons (little shields) like this one for squad markings.

StratoKhan Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Wow, I love that Librarian. Thanks for the closeup pics. They look good up close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmato Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 These are some beautifully painted minis :) How did you do the Librarians head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pea Posted April 24, 2006 Author Share Posted April 24, 2006 By the head I assume you mean the psychic hood as well right? The head is just one of the heads of the commander sprue iirc. The psychic hood is inspired by a guy named Heero-Severus (on Warseer), who in turn nicked it from Commander Y. It's just a standard space marine shoulder pad cut up and made to fit with the plastic terminator torso. I also added some plasticard strips for detail. this picture might clear things up a bit. As will this one. The cables are thin strips of plasticard attached to the head and the hood, and painted in two colours to make it look like double cables. Quite simple. :) Hope to have been of help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubal Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 All my termies will eventually receive pauldrons (little shields) like this one for squad markings.That would be besegews actually :) (the pauldron is the shoulderpad) I like the drop pod, but isn't it cheaper just to teleport in? Unless it's for the dreadnought that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Bloody excellent. I love the spent cartridge cases under the assault cannon. Where did the daggers come from? Warhammer Fantasy Imperial troops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimdarkness Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 i hate to nit pick but why do the marines with the shields have 3rd (i think) company markings on the shield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pea Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 @Tubal: I stand corrected. :ph34r: And the drop pod is for the upcoming dreadnought. @Isiah: The daggers are from the Space Wolf sprue. @Grimdarkness: Because it's a very simple and effective symbol. And in my army, it's a squad marking instead of a company marking. :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alextraz Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Ooooh....very pretty. The shading is lovely, very subtle...but perhaps too subtle. I notice a distinct lack of contrast between the gaps in the plates, and there was a little more contrast, it would make the plates pop out visually. Just a thought. - Az Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Very nice work Pea, the bone colour looks very good, it's nice to see some of your DA on the board again. Nice bases btw :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pea Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 @Scipio: I used this one. I used some different colours, but the technique is basically the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alroachy Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Your models look fantastic! I love the bases. It really helps to have a unique terrain look under the models. It helps to tie the whole army together. Nicely Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
