Haven't been doing much painting this week. But it was great meeting up with my parents and other relatives :)
I did however manage to squeeze in some time to do up a test mini for my Black Templar Neophytes.
And here he is:
Front view. He doesn't look too happy, I wonder why. His open arms pose seems to scream "What u lookin' at?!"
Side view. This view is kinda incomplete. The actual view would include a Black Templar Initiate standing behind him, encouraging him to move forward towards the enemy.
Back view. Probably the view of the Neophtye that the Initiate gets to see the most during a battle, or before they reach close combat with the enemy. Ok, enough of the Neophyte banter already haha!
The Armor of Initiates ;P
I got a couple, 19 i think, of these brave lads to paint up. I haven't really put a lot of effort into painting Space Marine scouts before. But they are pretty good models and have a range of expressions on their faces :)
Have a great weekend everyone!
Is that a mold line on his shoulder pad?!?
ReplyDeleteI loled when I saw this:

@Beef Nuggets: Yup its a mold line haha! I'm really sloppy with the prep work. Usually the thick paint covers it up, not this time though ;P
ReplyDelete@Krom: Thats the life of a Neophyte heehee!
I like how you paint the face. very 3D! His open arms pose is "FOR THE EMPEROR COME SHOOT ME!"
ReplyDeleteOh yes the mug/cup made me LOL!
@crazyrat: Thanks man :)) Oh yea, the mug was a gift from my supervisor at work haha! She understands the mental state of those who remain in the service ;P
