Landlubber's Covenant (Halo: Fleet Battles)
« on: December 29, 2016, 01:33:04 am »
Thought I had a thread started already for my Covenant ships, but I guess not. Anyway...I have now painted all the Covenant ships I own, as of this evening. I give you the Fleet of Ascendant Justice:







Haven't thought of names for all of them. The ORS in the middle is the Phalanx of Purity.

This concludes all of my painting for 2016. Time to put the brush down, clean up the hobby room, and start planning my next assault into the Land of Unpainted Resin and Plastic. I just got a second starter set for Halo: Ground Command, so maybe I'll start there.

Comments and constructive criticism are always welcome. Thanks for looking!

I really like the green and copper color combo you are using for these guys. It gives them a very nice "alien" feel, and accentuates the organic curves that are a hallmark of the Covenant design aesthetic. You have done a very clean job with all the copper highlights, and that contributes to an impression that this is a High Tech fleet! In fact, the only criticism that I could have to offer is that the painting is almost too neat, and feels a bit "flat." However, I know all too well that doing highlights and contrasts on these models is a tricky proposition, and I feel that your efforts on these models are far superior to my own!
