Fire Golem Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Im currently reading betrayer, and i have discovered a few things. Angron is a badass, what i thought was a boring, one dimensional legion is actually tragic and interesting, the pre heresy world eaters colour scheme is the best looking ever. I play CSM and have yet to decide how to paint them, so i guess my question is, in a roundabout way, would the CSM models look good painted in the pre heresy WE scheme? :) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragate Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I think so, yes. perhaps add brass trim. P.s I've not read betrayer yet but I'm glad to say I now look forward to it more than I had before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 That was going to be my next question, which colour for all the chaosy extras haha, Thank you. Yeah, im really enjoying Betrayer so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggnuggath Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I think gunmetal would look better than brass on a blue and white model, less obtrusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheex Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I agree with Shuggnuggath - gunmetal would look better on the trimmings IMHO. But otherwise, go for your life! If you're not sure about the colour scheme, paint up a couple of test models and see how it looks in the flesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Golem Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Yeah that's what I'm planning on doing :) need to buy some paints first, but then ill do a couple of test models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragate Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I think gunmetal would look better than brass on a blue and white model, less obtrusive. Well gunmetal would work although I'm not entirely sure I agree. My thought was that Brass would be a nice touch because if I remember correctly, Khorn sits atop a throne of brass. It's how i'd show a world eater slowly adapting himself to the patronage of the blood god! I'm a bit Fluffy like that. perhaps if you could base the trimmings in gunmetal and then layer up a bronzing colour? This is a Forge world example I like; in case you've not seen it - http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/WORLD_EATERS_LEGION_RAMPAGER_SQUAD.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimtalos Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Just yesterday, I painted up some Chaos Models in Preheresy World Eaters colours. I used brass for the chaos trim, but mainly because I love using the colour , Khorne likes brass and the World Eaters use brass trim and helmets to show veterans so seemed to fit. Would like to see how they look with boltgun. These are just quick test marines,but you can see how the scheme would look. Never painted white before and it was not such as pain in the arse as I would have thought, need to add the weathering to stop them looking flat, never done that either so should be fun. http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j175/Talos_photos/P1010808_zpsa263c4e3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnabel Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 http://wappellious.blogspot.fi/2012/08/a-batch-of-tainted-world-eaters.html This guy paints his World Eaters in pre-heresy colours with metal trims, and IMO it looks very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ambroz Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Grimtalos for test models those look pretty good! I think PH colors for World Eaters are often better looking than the red/gold although white/blue is a bit more difficult to do in general.
