AndyG WIP (pic heavy)

[AndyG]

Tried to use the pics to do the signature but not working obviously doing something stupid hey ho.

anyway a bit more done on the mini needs smoothing down but liking the blue.

Looking good mate. The base holder is distracting because it's clashing with the blues.

 

[Zab]

I feel like it needs some green/turquoise glazes in places to make him feel less Ultramarines and more Alpha Legion. Though that NMM armour is stunning

 

[AndyG]

Er loads of green and turquoise in it hmm maybe the photo or light conditions or your screen dunno. Even the base has got sotek green and scaly green in it. I will check on my computer screen at work and see what the balance is like. I think that maybe the iphone has got the colour selection wrong

Have to agree with Zab Andy the green isn't showing through. Was trying to think what was missing but Zab nailed it. The painting is spectacular

 

[Zab]

Yeah it still looks blue on my tv and ipad. I think the camera is eliminating the greens O_O

 

[AndyG]

Got the back done and prepped some of the steel bits. Still looks more blue than it is so gotta put it down to the iPhone.

 

[ArchArad]

He's coming along nicely Andy. The steel basecoat picks up a lot of detail - he's a more intricate model than I first thought. I hope you're enjoying him.

 

[AndyG]

Your not kidding he's intricate! A bit done on the steel and stuff.

Soooooo much nice work . Ornament on the chest has very nice fine contrast ...

starting to take shape, that color scheme is awesome.

Hi,

Yep, the color scheme works pretty well. I never see that marine ever and I have to said that has become one of my favourites.

Many thanks,
Mariano.

 

[AndyG]

Cheers guys. I must say its a surprisingly enjoyable mini to paint. The colour scheme is by far the coldest I've ever painted. Anyway a bit of free hand on the shoulder pad its a highly stylised calligraphy A ​for alpha legion.

Lovely pallette there.

A face only a mother could love though

Love the blues mucka, good call on the shoulder plate design also. Nice to see the mini off that painting block, I found the black / blue cracked paint really distracting to the mini (just my OCD I think )

 

[Maenas]

Really nice Andy! And that blackletter "A" on the shoulder pad is a nice addition to the "gothic" look.

heck I thought that was one of Andy's nicer painted bases....don't shoot me, I am just kidding issed-off:

 

[AndyG]

Not much been done over the last week what with euromillitaire so it was nice to pick up the brush again. Here's the latest.

 

[ArchArad]

Hope you enjoyed Euro Andy.

He's coming along very nicely. I especially like the pattern on his "loincloth" and the green/blue addition adds a great amount of depth and interest. My only concern is his left pauldron - the winged beastie seems to be a bit lost compared to the symbol on his right pauldron.

You staying with the gold now mate?
