Here is a 360 of him:
I weathered the base of the cloak, which I might beat up a little more. It makes sense that the bottom of the cloak would be just destroyed. However, it is a salamander relic so...maybe it's more stain resistant? I don't know.
Here are some close ups of the details. I'm really happy with how the icon and spear turned out. I looked at the GW model and really liked how the very ends of the fire are painted black like they're smoking. Also, until I painted it I didn't realize that the design of the icon is a circular tube that has a fuel tank and is burning like a torch.
If I spent any more time on this model it'd be on the flame at the base of the cloak to get the color smoother. I really liked how they did the crusting freehand on the GW site but I think I'd just ruin it in the end.
Thanks for following, as always critiques are welcome!
Brilliant work on Vulcan. I like the approach you've taken with the green on the sallies, its a realistic green. Also, the change in color profile for the spear vs the regular power weapons really sets it apart from the the rest and gives it the feel of a holy relic once welded by the son of the Emperor.
ReplyDeleteVery nice there! Love the range of colors that you've used adn the blending is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI think you've done yourself proud buddy!
ReplyDeleteThe green is a little darker than others I have seen but that's not a criticism. It's a comment. It's your model after all!
Nah, I'd be pleased if I'd painted him. You going to be uploading a composite shot to CMON?
I think you should. Probably get a seven for this dude.
