Visors How will you use yours ?

[Mr Evil]

Yup will you paint your visors ? leave them off altogether ? or put them on as intended ?

or maybe you have another idea ?

would love to hear.

paint em gold

 

[ianvancheese]

i'll probably paint um gold but it depends on whether i like the faces

 

[Tactics games]

I used mine as intended on the squads I built and i really like them. They cast a nice yellow back light glow on the faces underneath which is cool.

For the helmet I have hanging on my LT.'s belt I blacked ou the fqce underneath and it looks empty which is cool.

my question is how well does all the hard work into painting the faces of the trooper. show through the visor??? should i exzerate the shadows and the high lights to make the face more visible. or is it fine the way it is?? SICON command wants to know?

 

[Mr Evil]

i found it mutes the detail a bit, it actualy doese a trick on the eye like a goldfish bowl, so the face looks closer to the visor than it is, has any one else noticed that ?

I went for a strong shadowing so that the facial features( eyes, etc.) are distinct because with the visor added it all gets diffused a bit so no need to go cazy.

ive put one on as intended, but it just didnt look right, painted tamia smoke on it, an improvment.. still didnt feel comfortabel, so ive painted it gold with a brown ink wash... still not sure lol..

think i may leave them off,, still undecided.

I am leaving them off for now, except for the sergeants. That way I know exactly where Sgt. Danny and Sgt. Byram are at all times!

They are sneaky buggers, you've gotta keep an eye on them at all times, never know when they will wander off topic.

I was also thinking about doing the NCO and Lt. this way, but now I am think of putting them into Apes. I have seen the officers get killed way too quickly in the demo games!
