Well I haven't posted in quite a while, don't even remember what my last topic was!

But lately I've been getting frustrated with the lack of proper Job and my life overall, so I needed a distraction. Armed with a shiny new paintbrush, a cheap old Airbrush and some revitalised painting....kung fu?....I decided to see to what sort of standard I could paint at if I really tried. So anyway here's the Imperial Fist Terminator...

As you can see at the moment I've only done the leg, but just imagine the whole Marine painted like it :)


C&C appreciated,
Cosmic

Looking good so far. Keep it up, and hopefully the rest will come out just as well :) loving the battle damaged yellow

Very nice! I can't wait to see it finished. The yellow is eye pleasing, not to bright. The leg symbol looks great with the yellow reflection. Subtle contrast on your shading. Highlights are not over the top. Battle damage looks good, not to much, not to little.

Indeed, a splendid paint job. That's a very nice tone of yellow. I'm a fan.

Cheers Meph, I wondered if it would have been too yellow, but I think I've toned it down nicely,

I don't know to be honest, I doubt I have the patience to do a whole army as I get very frustrated with Space Marines, I'm very picky about how I want them to look! So for the moment it's just for fun.

Thank you very much.

Small update, bad photo.

I missed a mould line on the TH, so I've had to go back over that since the photo was taken. He's almost there, hopefully he'll be completed by tonight.
