Rx8's first space marine!
« on: June 29, 2015, 03:37:48 PM »
I had a craving for vanilla so I started a new army! That's not to say I won't still be upkeeping my eldar though!

Here's my first marine, I'm not sure if I like the color, I kind of wanted a darker blue like they have on all the boxes and such

I love the shading and the color--a dustier, dirtier Ultramarine, seems like. Those spoiled sons of Guilliman ought to get their hands dirty more often!  ;)

That said: your army is your army. Darken him up a bit if it suits you.

The lighter color is growing on me more and more actually. But I was just starting to wonder what would it look like if I put some guilliman glaze on the armor? Would it darken? Loose it's matte look?

Looks really nice.
Funny thing is, it looks almost exactly the same blue I painted my first space wolves way back in the last millennium ... 8)

So I really like the colour.
sure you have an opinion,
but my swordplay is better than your´s

Take my advice, I never use it.

Pretty sharp highlights and shading. It reminds me of a space wolf marine... Less hairy and neater.
