DIY Chapter Terminator Chaplain


ixupi

Recommended Posts

Well, the cord for my digital camera finally came in(That's what I get for living in Japan...). Anyhow, always got so much from you guys, figure i'd give back some. Here's a picture of a termie chaplain I did for my DIY chapter "Emperor's Dragons." This was my second attempt at NMM, with it being my first attempt without using crappy ole' craft paint I also will be entering him into Hobby Center Tokyo's grand painting competition, wish me luck? :angry: Either way, feel free to add your two cents or if you have a question about him, shoot.

Thanks for the quick comments guys.

 

Alextraz: Thanks, I really liked how the green came out myself, real shiny look. Recipe? I can do better, give me a day and I can have a pictured tutorial if anyone else is interested?

 

Kuroneko: Thanks! Yep, bird is from Daemonhunter Corteaz. I originally sawed it off to customize the model, but ended up using it for this.

 

Further comments and questions are appreciated! Keep 'em coming!

Top notch stuff! A+ from me!

 

Can not find any flaw, and I am trying hard! ;)

 

I second the request for a recipe on green - very cool!

 

Good luck on the competition and let us know how it went.

 

Cheers

I really like it, totally no-traditional, but it works. The only thing I don't like, and it's minor, are the purity seals on the stormbolter. In the pic the colors for the seal and the SB casing look very similiar, and seem to blend to me. But if in real life the difference is easy to see, then nevermind.

 

As for a tutorial on your green, yes please

Amasing painting-skills you got there, only downer is that it is a green chaplain.

chaplains are suppose to be black, as for serving directly under the emperor, sure you knew that, but still, lovely model.

Keep up the good work.

Unforunately the model isn't in my possession anymore, so pictures will have to wait.

 

Azazal: The purity seals are different, with the seals being noticably darker than the casing, I very much agree in the picture they look similiar, my apologies.

 

Carados & Frontierpediatry: Actually, the model is kinda bent backwards if you've ever seen one, and how I positioned the arm, it's supposed to be a combination of weighed down by both the eagle and power weapon. As far as being too low, I didn't think so... : \ I'll have to check it again though.

 

Thanks for the comments and critiques guys! Keep 'em coming. Stay tuned tomorrow for a green tutorial. Gotta get some sleep now.

 

Edit: Did have another picture. I think the major problem when looking at the arm, is the fact that the left shoulder is a normal pad and the right has an uber plate on it.

Whew, finally morning over here and got much needed rest. I can't thank all of you enough for all the comments, critques and suggestions. Good or bad they've all helped and now I know I won't hesistate to toss the next project at you all, my Daemonhunters Rhino....after of course, I do the green tutorial. The test model will be an assault marine, tada. Be patient with me though, i'm kinda burned out from all the painting I did on the chaplain, but i'll suffer for the sake of my fellow brothers.

 

NG-Griffin: Gee, you think? : P

 

Auroris: Working on it.

 

Master Aerethos: Yeah, now that I look at it, you are right. Seeing as how it's supposed to be a terminator. Yep. I definately positioned his arms, to be like normal power armor in that regard. Still though, liked how I did it despite it's inaccuracy...along side me and my dreams of green chaplains.

Okay, i'll shut up about it though, seriously. Thanks to everyone pointing it out.

 

Angelos: Glad the eyes are being noticed, I was worried I had screwed up them, thanks for the compliment man.

 

Rabblerouser: Tch, you betcha.
