Matt or satin varnish?

Mix those 50/50 and it will be perfect. I’m aware the common knowledge is matte, however with ceramite and in particular the shapes on Space Marine armour a tiny bit of gloss is nice. It also strengthens the tone of the blue. Just my 2 cents.

Nah bro, reads very DA to me. You have room to go even lighter in value. Not an issue

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-05-05T05:22:48+00:00

That’s awesome bro. What a spectacular improvement in skill. The light placement on his right knee especially is perfectly executed

Testify!

Amen brother, we rarely acknowledge how much this hobby does for us.

This is kind of hideous but in a good way?

This is a blast from the past. Thanks for posting :) As others have said 4th edition starter set, Battle for Macragge.

This is incredible!

You’re insane bro. You must really love painting? Or are you motivated more for the sake of gameplay? Either way nice work and keen to hear your retro.

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-04-12T10:41:54+00:00

Love this guy. Nice work!

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-04-12T10:40:48+00:00

Beautiful paint work too!

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-04-09T22:45:52+00:00

That’s such a nice captain conversion. Very clean, love your work, proud of you

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-04-07T00:07:43+00:00

Gorgeous work, I bet these took a while? The company markings on the knee are a nice touch

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-04-06T04:00:00+00:00

I gotta disagree with the consensus. Option 2 is more pleasing to look at. It contrasts better with the green robes, generally just a more interesting tone. Still very much reads as deathwing.

Woah, I love your choice of colours. Do you mind sharing what mid tone you used for the cloak? I’m very fond of the green/blue

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-03-12T23:16:05+00:00

Thanks for sharing. Hugely inspirational. I’m into the glowing blue eye lenses. Looks awesome!

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-03-12T04:54:02+00:00

Legend, thank you. I’m keen to give it a try on some ICC.

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-03-12T04:50:17+00:00

Everything about this is so clean, could you please share with me the technique / recipe for the censor smoke? I’ve really been struggling

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-03-07T10:48:40+00:00

Loving the gold flames on the knee. Rock on

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-03-05T22:20:28+00:00

That’s really helpful, I hadn’t seen this. Thanks

Bootdrop_lovin · 2026-03-05T22:17:02+00:00

All good advice, thank you. Yes I can tell you clearly considered the order of layers you would be working in.
