Here he is:
What do you think of him? I play Salamanders, I am going for a darker look than usual.
*edit*If he's not showing up, here is the link:

well i think that the paint looks a bit thick, but that might just be the photo, it probably looks decent in real life
what sorta camera did you use ,some cameras just arent meant for 40k, u know the saying, the camera adds 10 pounds.....

Actually, the paint is thick. You see, my brother had undercoated it, painted it Blood Angels, then I had to undercoat in black, and then paint them with Dark Angels Green, so it has 4 layers.

Marines are thick anyways... so it works well
He'd look a lot better with a railgun hole right through that soft centre though... time for a conversion courtesy of the Tau.

he looks good for your first SM. It can take a while to get the hang to highlighting power armour so it looks good. Nex time use the new models, they look 1000x better

B)About the tick thing: Space Marine Power armor has a 3+ save so it should eb thick. Lol.

A) Thanks.
B) Ya, but you should see this thing I dropped it from a 2-story building onto concrete and nothing happened.
C) All I have painted so far is this guy and a Sergeant; when I finish I'll be sure to post it!
D) This pic actually was taken on my monitor of the PC.
I am not very creative when taking pics, I just do it and make sure I can actually see it. To see a galler of some of my Eldar, go here:

I don't like u
. My fist Dark Angel was bad 'cause I didn't have DA green (I had to mix instead), but once I got DA green I painted a marine and it was the best model I'd ever painted. Now I think I'm gonna cry 'cause you put mine to shame so badly.
"Sob"
But then again I don't have boltgun metal or varnish and I'm scraping what little chaos black I can off the bottom of the pot...

Ahhh...i remember my very first figure. Black Templar Space Marine...*sigh*...those were the days. Now i suck even more then i did then. *double sigh*
Problem is, i never got the balls to highlight like you really need to go to get that nice look. I was always worried (AND STILL AM) about screwing up the model and the time i already invested. Aint a very good painter am i?

Actually, I mess up a lot. Just go over the spots where you slipped and make it look like it never happened.
