Throwback Thursday: Space Marines

My buddy recently found an old flash drive of mine from college, and on it were a few pictures of my Space Marines.  These aren’t the first models I painted, but they were some of the last I was working on before I switched to Warmachine & Hordes.

If tomorrow’s post goes as planned, this will be an interesting marker of how I’ve improved in about 7 years or so.

See how bumpy the paint looks? That’s not thinning the paint and using way too many layers. Additionally, while I had good brush control and painted “inside the lines”, there’s no purposeful shading or highlighting, save a little on the black. Look at that black lining though… That was all done manually with watered down black paint, if I recall correctly…

Fun!
