Emperor of Mankind! Complete!

 Hello one and all!

This weeks offering is the big Daddy E! the Emperor of Mankind! this was a purcahse from a well known auction site, with the additon of a FW base from the Gabriel Angelos model.

I've painted the model with various tones of gold, with highlights to add depth to the model. The Emperors flame sword was painted in a 'firy' manner to contrast with the cool blue of his left, clawed hand. The sword has a black tone in the middle which then radiates out to reds and yellows, with the Emperors claw being a deep blue highlighted up to pure white. 

 

 

Really happy with the results, the model fits in well with both the Guilliman model and Magnus.. 

Thanks for swinging by! LH (10pts)

The Emperor of Mankind! (3rd party proxy) - WIP 2

 Hello one and all,

Another quick update on my Emperor of Mankind model, I've applied washes and highlights to the armour and the cape, with then details picked out. The cape and leather details picked out to compliment each other. The Emperor's Sword has had fiery colours used from black to reds through to orange and yellow to show that the blade is alive with fire. The edge had a yellow highlight, and will be finished with a white.

The Emperors Talon contrasts with the sword to have cool blues highlighted up to white. Bizarrely I think the contrast really works well here.

The face is to be done, and detail on the rear of the cape to complete, plus a base that needs to be ordered.

Cheers, Lord Halfpenny

The Emperor of Mankind! (3rd party proxy) - WIP

Hello one and all, I thought I'd start work on something a little different rather than the black of the Deathwatch.

This model is a 3rd party proxy one that I purchased years ago, and has been sat waiting to be done. The model was part built, and then sprayed the base colour of gold for the body, black for the face and red for the cape. The cape has had a couple of highlights and washes added, with a final highlight to be added now that the cape is fixed into place - no need to add highlights in shadows.. The Emperor’s sword and Lightning Claw have been painted to contrast with each other - with cool blue hues for the Lightning Claw talons, against the fiery reds and yellows of the Flaming Sword.

The model also has a 2 headed eagle, this has a base brown coat, and will have highlights to detail.

In game term, this model could be used to represent Robbie G
if I am using him with my Custodes or my deathwatch, the model is similar in height to the Guilliman model. I am looking for a bespoke base for him, my intial thought was the Horus FW model, however we will see.. LH
