Some awesome looking Jumper marines

Posted by Unknown

I got these a long, long time ago but was going through my inbox today and found these which I never got around to posting (I think). Regardless, they are awesome and deserve the limelight! We can thank Tom for them and admire at their prettiness!

I really love the effect Tom as gotten on his Sanguinary Guard wings and the minor lightning effects on the power weapons. The color transitions are simple amazing and the conversion for the Libby...love it :).

Nice. The work on the Chaplains wings is particularly good.

the gold inner trims on the winged shoulder pads really make them pop, good job!

Thanks for the kind word, folks. If anyone else reads this, as the post has been up a day already, I'm working on my troops, currently. The paintjob is done, as well as half of the water transfers (the priests, and libby will also be getting transfers). Once I knock out the transfers, I'll be sealing them one more time, basing, and weathering the hell out of 'em.

I want the overall aesthetic to be super grimdark. All of the marines should look pretty war torn by the end of the process. It's a labor of love!

Pics when I get the patience and motivation to do so, although the kind words have definitely given me some of the latter.

Nice looking models. The wings do look amazing. I like the power weapons as well.

Thanks a lot, man. that was my first attempt at a power weapon like that, and I liked it so much that I cloned it on the rest of my ICs throughout the army. Same with the wings, I'd never attempted to layer paint so thin like that before, but the result came out very well, if I do say so myself. :)
