First Vehicle Attempt

I really enjoyed painting this Sentinel. I think that when I get caught up on some other minis I will pick up another of these to try a different camo pattern.

Nice job. Clean paint job. Have you loaded it into your gallery so we can vote on it?

 

[HerrBishop]

Thanks so much Ogrebane. It is in my gallery but the status is \"waiting\". I assume this is the link:

Looking good - is it finished though? Could do with some highlight\\shading

 

[Thecadian]

looks good as DaN said the green could do with some highlights

@ DaN and Thecadian: thanks for the advice. Originally I was going for the total matte look. Now that you mention it, the green could use some highlights. I believe that after I am finished with my Avatar of Aurellius, I will do the highlights on this mini.

Great job. I think a shot of Dull-Cote will give it that nice \"dry CARC paint\" feel. Overall; Well done.

Nice job. I have been thinking of trying one of those things. Drill out the exhaust pipes and gun barrel.

Next step on the next sentinel:higlighting!!!
Then GD!!!lol

 

[Ogrebane]

One other thing to consider is it is a bit straight out of the factory. Perhaps a bit of weathering and battle damage will give it that lived in look. Have voted.

 

[DaN]

I think it\'s nice to SEE a \"new out the factory\" once and again - I mean, they ARE replaced by the manufactoriums (Or whatever)

 

[HerrBishop]

Oh great, now I am torn on the weathering issue??? j/k.
@Shawn R.L: is the gun a laser or some type of heavy bolter? My impression was that it is a laser, which is why I did not drill it. I meant to drill out the exhaust, but forgot to do it. Thanks for the reminder.

Thank you all for the comments.

I like it, and camoflague is flat in real life, so I feel the highlights are not as bg an issue as being made out.

 

[DaN]

The gun appears to be a lascannon (Heavy laser weapon), but I\'d drill it out anyway - maybe with a smaller calibre (Smaller diameter drill)

 

[Thecadian]

the gun is definatly a multi laser i know camo is flat but the legs arent!!
