musliisafish Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 so there's the scheme i'm planning to use on my up and coming traitor mechanicus army. All the models will also have at least some black robes/tabards and hoods, to give them a darker feel (though they are already quite dark :D) any tips on quartering? I'm a pretty competent painter, but it has been a long time, and any tips are alwayd useful. Also, any general tips on painting black power armour? It can be an absolute bitch not to turn it grey or flat from what I remember.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquigBait Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 It looks good. You should use nothing but the cog and skull torsos for the marines. You can get them seperately at www.thewarstore.com http://www.thewarstore.com/product27074.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
