Inquisitor Seldon's acolytes

[Shannow]

He looks fantastic, and his pose gives him an odd bit of edgy-ness I think, reflection looks great. Look forward to finished article!

Oh, the other question I meant to ask - does anyone have any ideas for cool colour schemes for the other two? I'm planning to start painting them tomorrow but have no idea what colours I'm going to paint them...

[JoelMcKickass]

Depending on the Flamer-Girls personality, if she's a pyromaniac, i'd go for a load of clashing colours, as though she doesn't really think about whether it's a uniform or if it matches, because if it's not fire, she's not interested.

Having said that, it's a nice model, so i'm not sure making it look garish may help.

[Kaled]

She's already been painted and pics are higher up in this thread. It was the void born and guy in the hat I was referring to needing ideas for.

EDIT: So what do you think? Is she too garish with the orange top? I didn't want to make her a pyromaniac - it felt like too much of a cliche. All too often characters have flamers because they love to burn things. I decided to give her the nickname 'Lady' because some of her colleagues think she's a bit stuck up and posh, though it's more to do with her accent (kind of like the way a lot of Americans think Brits are posh just because of their accents).

[Shannow]

I like the idea of crimson and gold for the voidborn with the obligatory pale/blue skin tone not sure why, but first thing in my head.

I think the flamer girl looks fine if the background matches the look, which given the rest of your characters I am assured it will do.

Guy in the hat, sort of dark brown detective trench coat with ivory handles on gun?

Whatever you choose I look forward to them being done

I quite like her, the camo pants are really well done, and she's not white, which you never see.

I agree with Shannow's Hat-man idea, a dark brown detective coat whilst looking severely downtrodden. For the Void-Born i'd go for a dark purple rather than crimson, but i can't remember what the original model was painted like...so i may just be thinking of that and imagining i came up with that colour scheme.

Really liking the reflection, it's a fantastic bit of work you've done.  Really stunning, it gives the model a truly epic feel as it suggests far more than could be fit onto his base.

(kind of like the way a lot of Americans think Brits are posh just because of their accents).

You mean...you aren't all posh?

[Hadriel Caine]

Oh gosh no.

[Molotov]

The pilot looks very cool, and not at all like a Star Wars miniature. I can still see Padme in the Lady, but the pilot is fantastic.

Still, excellent work repurposing the figures!

The problem with the reflection, Dave, is that it's curving in the wrong direction.  Assuming a flat-ish horizon, and given the angle of the visor, the curve of the reflection should be descending to the middle quite sharply, like this:

You never cease to amaze me Dave - I had a look at those DeAgostini models, and I thought that they were a level of crap only one step up from those toy soldiers that Octavian Lars is using. You have made them look pretty awesome though.

I really like the pilot. It's nice to see that ancient autopistol too (it must be older than some of the people who post on this forum.)

was that an insult

[kierkegaard]

Not an insult to you, (in fact I admire the optimism of seeing potential in those figures,) but an insult to the company that produced them. They are not exactly what you would call a quality product, are they?

[Inquisitor Octavian Lars]

Too right the stub pistol was a nightmare to glue on the plastic is terrible. I wonder if I made a vacum press mould in the tech dept so gav could make better ones.

[precinctomega]

Making a vacuum casting chamber in CDT (or whatever you kids all it these days) would be a fantastic (and very useful) project!
