Speedpainting Space Marines #10 - Land Raider Tank

Posted by Thomas

And here we have the last model in this series of posts for now: the Land Raider! Every Marnie player probably owns one :)

Enjoy!

I added some extra fuel barrels to suggest that this land raider is intended for long trips accross the desert.

Unfortunately I lost the right projector light, so I had to come up with a solution to fill the gap. I added a shield with the chapter's insignia. Not the most elegant solution but better than a gaping hole.

I hadn't seen any of your Marine stuff before today so it's been a bit of a bombshell going through it all right from the start.

Thomas said...: Hi Sasha!

Thank you for your comment.

I gave a quick overview of the colours and methods I used for painting here: http://boringmordheimblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/space-marine-revival.html

If you have any further questions, just drop me an email (auf Deutsch wenn du willst) and I'll be happy to help.

No, I do not have a name for the chapter yet :)

Hope that helps!

pharmacy said...: You did a excellent work with it. It is pretty impressive and they have a lot of details, specially the tank.; 24 August 2011 at 17:00:00 WET
Thomas said...: Thanks pharmacy. Actually there aren't so many details. In fact, the paintjob is pretty basic, but it looks like more.

I think it may be the strong contrasts (rust effect/light paint), which, combined, give an impression of plasticity.

The painting elements per se are really not that fancy. Just goes to show what a difference a clever choice of colours can make :); 24 August 2011 at 17:33:00 WET
