Great work Josh! I particularly like the shading on the cloak, did you use a dark blue to shade it? It seems as if it has a slight blue tint in the shadows, which looks nice. I like the armour on the other one as well. Look forward to another update coming from you soon, Josh! :)

Yup, shaded with a dark blue.

Thanks for the compliment :)

Got some done on the MOTF, I was going to try and finish the other one but these red cloaks are great fun to paint! I fiddled with some settings on the camera, and here you have it, a DECENT close-up picture.

Further away with different settings....

C&C welcome!



EDIT: Just noticed those bubbles in the paint, I've scraped them off & painted over :)

The cloak looks really nice, you managed to achieve a good-looking red without making it too pink 8)

The toned down red is brilliant. I really like the shading on it as well.

Or are they made by another person?

Whoops....sorry, missed this :oops:

They're not from GW. The commissioner isn't sure, but he thinks they were made by a company called Ronin miniatures (he bought them secondhand off Ebay so like I said, he isn't sure.)

Small update regarding the Templars.

Note to self: Request new camera for birthday.

Everything is grayed in the picture. The tabards are a good deal yellower in color IRL, and the skin is also not anywhere near that pale. Most everything is finished except I need to go over the pauldron insignias with black, and work on the shading of the tabards (recesses are far too dark ATM on some of them.) then add some chipping in the armour.

Also started some Terminators. They're quite WIP. Only thing that's 100% finished is the skin on the middle two, which I'm fairly pleased with.

I'll be updating on the two Primarches soon, as well as some updates on the new Sanguinis, which I am purchasing soon. I'm doing a 1-on-1 headliner challenge with an excellent painter by the name of A Luna on another site.

Looking good, man. Both the skin and cloth look excellent.

Only overall shape we can see (lol, kinda Yoda style :D ).

They look good Josh but I also join the call for close-ups. :)

I really like the cloth and the faces look great from what I can see of them. Though, I agree with the others that it'd be nice to have some close ups to help us see the mini's better. Keep up the good work on your painting, Josh! :)

Close-ups, as requested.

Also got some done on an Empire banner bearer last night, fairly pleased with the banner and VERY pleased with the skin/beard so far.

Banner is still WIP, needs more shading, and a design of some kind. Any ideas?

Quite easy to see the mistakes on the Templars close up....they weren't painted with display in mind, so much as gaming, though ;)

I'm contemplating some very thin red washes on all the Templar's skin, to give it a bit more pinkness.

The Empire banner-bearer looks great! As for the design on the banner, it all depeneds. Have you thought of what province of the Empire you're army is from? If so, then you can look up heraldry for that province and then paint on a design free-hand. Nice to see you start work on those, I really like the look of the Empire range. 8)

As for the templars, seeing up close I'd say the cloth needs some work. The blending isn't quite as good as you're capable of. Maybe a few glazes would smooth things out? Still great work though Josh, just not quite to the quality of some of your other work like that Space Marine with the red cloak you painted. Keep the updates coming. :wink:
