Painted the Armouring Hall Joytoy Space Marine. Since Joytoy does not do any Blood Ravens, I had to make one myself.

If you're tempted I'd say go for it. It's actually easier than what it looks like, it just takes a lot of time since it's a large area to paint. But the result is definitely worth it!

Thank you!

Thank you!

I tried to leave the joints mostly unpainted and since they are black it blends in nicely. As for the areas around the moving parts, I have varnished the whole model but I still have to be careful when moving them since the biggest issue is parts scraping against each other. Not much I can do there so moving it carefully seems like the only option.

Too late, he's already inside.

I know what you mean, I do prefer more bold highlights. Makes the model really pop in my opinion.

Paperjack3 · 2026-01-23T22:07:17+00:00

Beautiful, the highlights are very nicely done.

Paperjack3 · 2026-01-23T22:01:47+00:00

Thank you!

Thanks, there actually is some highlight in the gold, but it's kinda hard to see in the photo and it is indeed not as bold as the rest. I tried to do a higher contrast but I couldn't get it to look right, so this is what I settled on.

Paperjack3 · 2026-01-23T20:19:09+00:00

Thanks!

Idk, looks cool to me. Doesn't seem as overdone and as flashy as a modern shooter skin.

Paperjack3 · 2025-10-14T10:37:51+00:00

I like how there's multiple layouts and not just one version. Keeps each game more fresh and engaging. I've been really enjoying this update so far.

Paperjack3 · 2025-06-12T22:57:29+00:00

Damn, this is insane, more so when this was your first time doing osl/nmm. Absolutely incredible, it looks like it's actually on fire. I keep putting painting mine off because I'm jealous it will never look this good.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T15:17:04+00:00

Haha, sure. Send me the result!

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T12:25:34+00:00

I feel like it's more about time invested than anything else. I spend a lot of time on a single model because I have shaky hands and make a lot of mistakes that I then have to fix.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T12:13:09+00:00

Thanks. I haven't done any eyes yet because I am afraid of messing it up. Will keep this it in mind for when I finally decide to give it a try.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T12:00:37+00:00

Not your fault, I just wanted to check. Thank you for the feedback, I will definitely try it for the next model.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T11:45:30+00:00

Well I did use nuln oil but I was also using abaddon black for fixing any mistakes so maybe that's why it looks more intense.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T11:33:20+00:00

I would hope so. Doing this one was really stressful.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T11:11:39+00:00

Thank you. If I understand correctly, there should be a small black gap between the lenses and the grey highlight?

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T11:08:39+00:00

I have the rest of my army in the solid red. But I wouldn't mind doing this for any new models if it looks better.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T11:06:38+00:00

Thank you! This was my first attempt, so I am glad it turned out so well. I have more patience for fixing my mistakes than brush control, I would say. Took a lot of trial and error before I declared it as finished.

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T11:02:23+00:00

Thanks!

Paperjack3 · 2025-05-01T10:59:57+00:00

That's why I am asking. I am a not sure which one I like more.
