Novamarines Storm Talon

[Cvife]

Hi everyone, I thought I'd just show off some of my recent painting.

I bought a Space Marine Storm Talon for my very slowly growing Novamarines army, I based the colour scheme on the one from Badab War part 1 but modified it to look more stream lined. Here's the finished product:

That's all, what do you think?

There is no doubt in my mind 'weather' or not I like this.

This is nice :)

I like it a lot. One suggestion to make it better, the front lights and doodads need something. The spotlight and things blend in too much and detracts from the awesome paint job of the rest of the model.

But again, it is really good and the weathering is superb.

Damn I love dirty, battle-worn, crappy-looking vehicles! Love that weathering mate! :D

looks great, the weathering is spot on, a little static given that its a flyer rather than a tank. but amazing none the less.

im also a little unsure of the green pilot. i get it just im not a fan of source lighting, given the work o the rest of the model, the OSL and plain matt canopy make it look rushed.

but ill say it again since i may come off as being too negative, the weathering is spot on.

very nice :D theres a tiny spot on the base that needs tidyed up but apart from that thats perfect :D

I really love the green glow from the instruments to the pilot

I LOVE it! That bird looks like it has been on campaign a LONG time!

The Adeptus Mechanicus back at base are gonna be PISSED!

Nice job mate. Not to harp on about it, but I've seen a lot of heavilly weathered vehicle that just look... shall we say 'not good' to be polite. You however have found a really great balance (same on your Death Guard), givnig a really interesting, worn look without going overboard. I agree that something else needs to be done on the searchlight/sensor panel though. Maybe in green to math the spot colour from the cockpit?

This looks great. I love the Storm Talon. It looks like something from those old Metal Slug games. And thats a good thing as far as I'm concerned. :)

Well, despite the belly-ache that model gives me, you gave it an absolutely great paint job. That cockpit is especially moody, noice!

But... finished..? I spy with my little eye some lenzes and a targeting sensor that still needs some love and the engines are a bit clear compared to the rest. Perhaps some thinned inks for heat discolouration and some black weathering powders around the vents? Y'know, to give it all another blast from the Spice-Weasel. :D
