What Y'all been waiting for!

Here it is gentlemen, the first completed Grey Hunter in ALL his glory!! Overall, i am impressed with the paintjob, although i believe i may need to do some highlights here and there. Other work that needs to be done is the finishing of the base and the attachment of the Thunderwolf symbol on his left shoulder pad. Otherwise, he is pretty much ready for the table. I think the only things i would try to do different for future Hunters is the left shoulder pad, and perhaps i should have stuck to doing black lining for it. Otherwise, thats him. I'll assign him a name within the next few days (just need to go through my Space Wolves notepad). And if anyone asks, his bolter IS drilled out!

Hi,

nice, very nice!! *big thumbs-up!*
The pic is a little dark, so it´s hard to see details but I think it looks very nice indeed.

How have you painted the bolter? Black - bolt gun metal - black ink -chain mail and then codex grey high-light? (or Vallejo equivalent)

just an idea though, add some runes to his chainsword and maybe even some gore..? ;9

I hope you put him up on the B&C.

Cheers!

It was worth waiting for!
Great job. The blacklining looks very nice and I like the furry combat shield (it is a combat shield..isn't it?).

Gah.. the pic is STILL DARK!! And that was after i digitally brightened it! But i do need a second lamp to use for taking pics. Yeah the Bolter was painted black, with boltgun, black ink etc etc, the same way you described it.

I might add some runes to the Chainsword actually, see how steady my hand is i guess.

Indeed i put him up on the B&C, but NEVER in PC&A!


Well im glad you think the wait was worth it Arjan! The black lining COULD be alot smoother, and umm, thats a wolf pelt, not a combat shield my friend....
