I think you\'re off to a fantastic start here. Both have movement to their bodies and REALLY BIG SKULLS!

You really can\'t go wrong with really, really big skulls.

Looking good there mate! I like the imposing stance the Librarian is in and the movement of the chaplain.



@ rosac : you got the same mouldline because like all companies they make the same type of model in the same mould! LOL

Well I like them both very much right now. I would suggest removing ALL the chaos icons from the legs on the librarian, you seemed to have left the arrows on the feet. If you\'re really keen you could do some fancy carving and a liiittle putty work and make them into lightning bolts (much more librarianesque). Oh and fill the gap in the force weapon shaft in (I like it very much otherwise). I like the chaplain a lot as well, I cant really see anything to suggest about that though. The only thing I would have done different is I would have faced the eagle on the crozius the other way (but that is entirely personal preference). Good job so far. Can\'t wait to see more. Have you thought about a head for the librarian?

It took me a couple of minutes to work out what you had used for the psychic hood. The part looked familliar but I couldn\'t place it. Verrry cunning

Thanks for all the feed back guys..

@Undave the hood is a chaos shoulder pad.. i just hacked it up a bit

I was thinking of useing a respator head or a plain head on the libbie.. what do you guys think?

Looks good to me. The only issue I have is that the purity seal on the force weapon is a little large... The head looks good, so does the arm (seen that conversion before somewheres...).

I think the best advice I can give for highlighting (layering that is) would be to look for similar models in the galleries to see where they are placing the brighter colours. The highest and top most portions are going to be the brightest and the recesses and lower portions will be darkest. Washes over entire portions can be great to build up shadows and allow you to see where to highlight (the areas that are least shaded by the wash).

The seal looks better now. I can\'t really see the eyes... but I do know the effect you are going for. Looks pretty good so far. I\'m not sure if the grey is part of the colour scheme or not right now though.

yes codex gray is the main color.. its really hard to get the high lights on that color for me.. I was useing shadow gray i think for high lights
