Welcome to Gaia! ::

Here is my first baneblade,the GW staff dude told me it took him a day and a half to have it assembled......i did it in 8 hours....

I say you should put some color on the treads so it doesn't look like they weren't touched.

My newest addition (un painted) leg armor and the mask are getting painted then applied.

You should scrape up and defile the Aquila a little on the Baneblade. It'll give it a more chaotic feel. So far it looks pretty good though. Seeing all these Baneblades make me want to get one for my Lost and the Damned.

When you see the grey plastic on a "finished" model decrepit does not come to mind, but rather "rush job" and "shame of a good model kit"

With a little more time and effort it'll look a whole lot better.

Two words: its s**t.

Gray plastic does not equal decrepit. If thats what youre going for, you want to have boltgun metal or another metallic under those scrapes and holes. Then maybe work in some browns for scorches.

Also, all yu did to the acquila was put a rectacal like thing on them, whats that supposed to show? They know where the imperium is on a map (no wait, it IS the map).

As others have said, paint the treads. The things looks like a solid slap of black. Stuff like the barbwire is nice, and its good you wrote over "******** the Imperium", thatw as tacky as all hell. Should probably do the same with "ANBU", reeks of otaku.

Anyways, the whole model comes of as lazy.

Caleidah's right. At the very least you should have some spare bits from that defiler if anything. If you have the spare cash to get a baneblade for your chaos army, that tells me you have a fair sized force. Rummage around and find some spiky things, the "******** the imperium" was funny initially but it just comes off as dumb after a while. Also, if you insist on painting the name onto the tank, please please please practice a bit so it doesn't look like the equivalent of a kid with a crayon. In the end the thing could probably do with a whole new coat of prime, you're supposed to do two coats anyway.

Now if you want it to look defiled at all, get RID of whatever you painted over the aquila, and work on just messing it up a little. Take your file or some sandpaper and just grind that thing down, that way you could paint it (Actually paint it, because I don't care how chaotic you are, on a model that big, priming it and then just painting a few bits makes you look like a lazy jackoff) so that it looks like someone tried to burn it off. Anyone know a good setup for that? I think boltgun metal with some heavy brown and black ink would work. Also, if you want a molten or kind of slimy or organic look, you could actually use plastic glue. For those who don't know how the plastic glue works it actually melts the plastic down and that's how it sticks. Anyhow slather a little plastic glue on and rub it aground with something and it'll get a smoothed out look. I can't count how many models I inadvertently gave that look while I was learning to model. sweatdrop

Now I'm pretty sure that chaos marines like fancy things about as much as anybody else, so pretty that thing up a bit (Well, pretty for chaos anyway, which kinda amounts to grisly trophies and offerings to the ruinous powers). You could try working on defiling the mechanicus shrine a bit. At least find some way of symbolizing Dark Mechanicum.
