Erion Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Woooo Templars! Nicely done. My only recommendation would be some additional shading/highlighting on the cockpit glass. You have nice lighitng effects on all of the other surfaces, but that one seems to be lacking. Of course, it may just be an effect of the picture, too.

Crazy8 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I think that's the same color I'm painting my Merc force, which contains a Centurion!! Looks good though, glad to see it works well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjpens77 Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 I like this "paint scheme"...what colors were used? For the grey - Reaper Armor Grey Reaper Ash Grey GW Codex Grey GW Black Ink for a final glaze to tie in the layers and darken it up a bit Blues - GW Regal Blue GW Enchanted Blue GW Ice Blue GW Blue ink for a glaze Yeah, I agree with the cockpit...having that much red in the middle of the mini is kind of distracting. I think with a smaller cockpit the solid red would work much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReaperShaun Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 I like it. THe color choice is good and the model is shaded/highlighted. Your base looks nice too. The red cockpit reminds me of a big painted fingernail. It is painted nice and neat though. The only thing I can recommend is to drill out the weapon barrels. Good job.

Sergeant_Crunch Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Nice CAV! I agree either highlight the glass a little more or glaze it to tone it down a little. I really need to order some of those FP decals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papabees Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 You could jewel the cockpit and then it would really pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixminis Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 You could jewel the cockpit and then it would really pop. Hrm... how many light refractions should it have? Me... I just do a stylized blue thang... but either way... it looks kewl. Who says that glass can't look opaque and colored in the future? Hrm....
