I took me long enough – well over 6 weeks, but I have finally finished the first four Space Marines from the 2009 Space Hulk release. So much detail!
The armour came out darker than I had intended, but I was happy with it anyway. Also trying to paint purple gems proved to be a mistake as I couldn’t get the effect that way I wanted, and was much happier with the amber gems I tried on one of the four.
The models are bursting with little details, some of which I left unaddressed. Ultimately I enjoyed painting them, and after all these years it was nice to see them come together. These were the first four, so I’ll b able to take some lessons learned forward to the rest of the marines, and hopefully get them all completed in the first half of this year.
Genestealers beware!
They look spot on! Good work. Nice to get something that’s been hanging around a while done!
