Forgefather Vulkan Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hello all. Today I popped to the shops and bought myself the loverly Astorath the Grim model and after having much fun building I'm I don't have a clue how I'm going to paint him as he's quite a detailed guy and I want him to stand out a bit so I am reluctant to paint him in the same colours as the rest of my BA... So my question is does anyone have a scheme I could possibly use for him?? So far the only thing I plan to do is paint the wings black and his hair White like in the art work... Thanks in advance Forgefather Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/208262-mr-astorath/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zealadin Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Since no one else has said anything i'll offer a choice up: You could paint him pastel pink/light blue. He'll stand out and your opponents will be too busy to insulting your sexuality to play the game properly!

I guess thats the tactic behind playing emperors children then.

Thanks in advance Forgefather If you're painting your other BA bright red, then try painting him a darker shade like scab red. If your regular marines are dark red, then perhaps black?

Forgefather Vulkan Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 Well I've decided to go for a really dark red. Mechrite red + chaos black. And work it up in layers... Think it will work with my scheme (on here, called my blood angels. Will update when I can). Does anyone have tips on how to paint the armour as it's a really tricky think, lots of lines on it! Could be a challenge so all help appreciated. Forgefather Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/208262-mr-astorath/#findComment-2485202 Share on other sites More sharing options...
