After a marathon of Puff and Slash dwarf painting (much more about this to come) I decided to take a brief break from that and finished up two additional Renegade Marines for the 3rd squad.
The first of these is one of those crazy bright paint jobs that I love to explore with the Renegade models....the second is much more subdued.
This one is one of the Heavy Weapons marines that is rocking a wicked cool visor...which became a bit of a hang up for me in the painting process. I had had the majority of this figure painted for several months...just the visor was holding me up. But after chatting with some talented folks I'm lucky enough to know, I developed a plan for conquering the visor and I dove in! In the end it was fairly straight forward and not as complicated as I had feared.
So here he is...Heavy weapon number two for this squad and trooper number 6.
Trooper 7 was my actual palette cleanser after the dwarf marathon (lololol...the idea of an actual dwarf marathon makes me laugh)...I took a much more subdued color choices with this guy. I like this model but it has some very soft casting details in places that was hard to overcome in a satisfactory manner. anyway I think he turned out "ok" but he is not my favorite of the bunch.
Here is melta-gun armed trooper 7
And here is Squad 3 current status...just three left to do!!!
(I think the Orange guy steals the focus of the group!!)
Next up will be a series of posts about the individual units of the dwarf army....
...now with banners!!
Cheers,

It's a great unit, I'll have to do a squad or two to catch up now ^^'
ReplyDeleteThanks JB...also appreciate your help with the visor.
DeleteI think this whole project is mind blowing. You never cease to surprise me with these colours. Truly fascinating.
