THANATOS AAC (13)

Hi all,
thank you for your patience :)

With the light effects pretty much done I worked on detailing and highlighting the troopers.

Here is the Eisenkern Valkyr Sergeant - just a few little highlights, but I think they make a huge difference.
A little softer on the "darker" side
The other Valkyr with the muzzle effect with brighter and harsher highlight.
And the one in the softer light.
with the change to the colder, blue shine from the landing lights.
Is he looking surprised?
This image emphasized the light and color changes nicely and also it brings out the red lenses of the Scion solder.
 
Here comes the Flamer :)
The trooper with the grenade launcher, firing from the hip so to speak.
 
 
















The character I was looking for the most was the Captain of the assault force.
Again I'm surprised how well the Eisenkern Varkyr and the Scion parts work together.

And the highlights just define him so much better

The transition from warm to cold lights
 



The flamer side
 
The front section 
 
 
With the male troopers done I detailed the lady bodyguard on the left
 
Those Raging Heroes models are challenging but really fun to work with
 
The Executioner can't be detailed yet, as she still needs the red background light from the passenger bay.
So I have to finish the interior.
The turret interior I had already completed and masked with this children's clay. And it worked like a charm :)
 
So I finally glued the turret together - YAY!
 
Looks nice on top of the superstructure.
 
So I took the segments apart again and based the interior in this light blue paint.
 
Even without details (but with the pre-painted sections) the bridge looks cool already
 
So I painted the pipes and cables first.
  
With the chipping and weathering the MG section is done :)
 
So this is as far as I got.
What do you think?
I really look forward to your comments, feedback and suggestions.
Cheers
Klaus
