Angrygriffin's nostalgic Space Marines (and friends)

[angrygriffin]

Been lurking a little while, figured I would start sharing my work. I'm going through and painting the Space Marine army of my childhood dreams, many years on... aiming for all the metal sculpts I wished I had back then.

I finished a Lieutenant Commander tonight:



They're mostly Ultramarines but I can't resist diverting into a different chapter for a sculpt that particularly calls for it!

[Onebigriver]

Welcome and lovely work! Especially love the sword.

[OSHIROmodels]

Excellent 

[Daeothar]

That's pretty awesome 

I especially love the skull on his right shoulderpad and the particularly bright eye lenses!

This reminds me I really should get back to doing some more RT Mentors...

Please keep up the good work though!

[angrygriffin]

Thanks guys! Got another one done tonight:

[Michi]

Nice and vibrant colours chosen for a very good paintjob - well done that!

[OSHIROmodels]

Love it 

Can I ask what you’ve used on the bases?

[aliensurfer]

Very nice, really captured the era with the paint jobs 

[JollyBob]

That looks fantastic!

I always liked the way the RT figures played with armour styles, and this one was a favourite.

Also, very cool painting the visor to show the face beneath! Wonderful little touch that really elevates the figure.

[DivisMal]

Truly excellent!

Thanks guys!

I am so glad that other people can see the face there, it took so many goes to get right!

Love it

I lean on pigments pretty heavily to get the bases looking the way they are - the exact pigments used and order of usage is here.

Thank you

Awesome work on the visor

[majorsmith]

Seen these on the gram! Lovely stuff that visors great

[angrygriffin]

Thanks guys!

Got another one of the Armour Variants range finished last night:



Amazing how much more mousey they look when the vents are turned 90 degrees.
