badgermeister Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 just learning 40k and love the FW stuff so starting on my own variant of the marines errant from the Badab war book. I realise its supposed to be white and blue and not silver and blue but its particularly hard to decipher exact coulours from the FW book. I will pop up the axtra pics as i slowly work my way through the 2 tactical squads of Mk3 armoured troops I have. pictures are off my Iphone so will update quality when i get the right setting with a white background. awaiting plasma cannon for the dreadnought and power packs are still to be attached to the marines but its a WIP as they say.

ElTanko Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Very nice start, the bronze/gold trim on the finished one looks really good. That contemptor will look awesome when painted to the same standard! ElTanko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatEscape_13 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I agree. A very good start. And good to see a Badab War chapter, as they're the best fluff currently out there (well, except Ultramarines because you can't swing a dead cat without hitting some of their fluff). Are you set on the snow bases? I might suggest a more varied base, even if just sand plus static grass. Snow works well for super-complex schemes I think--the bland white makes the model much more focused and dynamic. But for a duller/darker/grittier scheme (as you seem to be working on), I think a more varied and colorful base is a better match. Anyhow, them's my two cents.
