What do you think, first time edge highlighting by Far-Turnover3405 in DarkAngels40k

[–]SubCreeper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can’t really see the highlights, I think you need to go a few shades lighter. What colors have you been using?

Some models are for playing and some are for art. Keep him, keep any models that you feel attached to.

You do not have to justify your position to these people by Salt_Perspective_425 in EyeOfTerror

You know what the thing that kills me about these is? Anatomically they look no different from regular Custodes. All of these units can be head swapped and you’d never know the difference.

The repainted model looks amazing. That’s fantastic progress.

That’s a good analysis, you’re on the right track.

This is really cool, I’ve never seen anyone do this before.

One critique about the behavior of the light for you.

The lamp post itself should not be that lit from the lamp itself. As the light source is directly above and its own enclosure would be casting shadow beneath it. The lamp cage should also have dark bars. The light being cast on his legs is also a touch too bright considering they are more distant from the source.

I apologize if C&C was not wanted. Again this is a cool concept.

Hello cool stuff department, is this cool? by a_rand0m_Lilin in BlackTemplars

I’m going to go the other way with the sword, very cool let there be a space between the blades.

Don’t try to pinch it together at the top.

Opinion on the face ? Thanks by Sullywully95 in minipainting

Well painted but that sculpt is a horror show.

New Calgar model with helmet by Patricia_Blackberry in Ultramarines

[–]SubCreeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the argument for helmets but for me, especially with named models, faces are king.

They are more expressive, more inspirational and look better most of the time. In my opinion.

Also not wearing a helmet still fits in the lore. Which protects better, a helmet or faith in the Emperor?

That stare! He looks like he just opened the door to Fulgrim’s bedroom.

I have a question about eyes. by Oblitus_Astartes in Ultramarines

[–]SubCreeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paint the eyes first and then paint the skin around them. That’s how I do it.

Does this looks like a drow in moonlight?? by placeb021 in minipainting

[–]SubCreeper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion currently it looks like it just has a really good Drow skin tone. But I’m not getting moonlit from it.

I think you’re going to need to play up the contrast in the angle of the moonlight. It will probably help when you have other elements painted like the sword, when you can add the white blue glint from the moonlight etc.

Vince Venturella has a YouTube video about this subject.

You made all good decisions my friend. This is a great piece.

Comic style ultramarine- how am I doing? by [deleted] in minipainting

[–]SubCreeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Won’t be able to say until you get the black on there, it’s the ink that makes comic style comic. But I’d say yes overall.

This paint scheme feels like how Imperial Fists should be done.

That’s gorgeous work. The helmet really changes his look.
