Well, this is it, 02/27, The Squaduary 2017 challenge will come to and end tomorrow. Time runs short. I expect I'll be working tomorrow night, right up to the last on this project. Having completed a first pass on the chapter iconography for the right shoulder pads and a base coat of dirt on the bases, I thought I;d post up a teaser in advance of my final post which will most likely come shortly after the deadline for the challenge expires.

The storm shield is off once again as the base gets some attention. I'm planning a neutral blasted/barren earth look for this force. The models themselves carry so much interest and detail that I want to avoid over doing things with crazy bases.
I've very pleased with how this is turning out. I got lost in the final details; there are so many elements to track and my many short sessions left me unable to fully complete various areas in one pass - now I'm struggling not to forget what areas have final highlights and what don't, etc.. Regardless, the squad looks fine and I suspect I am my own worse critic with unnecessary self-doubt at this point.
Until the end...looking forward to completing the squad!
Cheers and Happy Gaming!
Looks ace chief, glad you got them finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I keep stumbling over details I forgot about under all the black...like belt pouches across the back under the backpacks, details on the backpack of the Imperial Fists marine, etc.. Great models, but I need to get better organized when I take on the next batch of Deathwatch.
ReplyDeleteI like how they've come along though, thanks again for making the time to look them over. I hope to put up a final post with better photo quality shots and close ups.
