Evening all, so this is what I've been working on so far. I'm using a the praetorians and mordians as veterans squads. The praetorians represent a squad for the first company and the mordians are Marines from the imperial navy. So here are the praetorians so far;

N9, how do you shade your yellow? Will you be doing any weathering?

You have failed me for the last time, Admiral Needa!

 

Ahem...good work lads! Are you going to get some Grave Wardens and Typhon? Awesome models!

[Excubitor]

Now I'm seriously tempted to start a 30k army to challenge Jasp's traitors!

How ExScything ;)

 

 

 N9, how do you shade your yellow? Will you be doing any weathering?

 

 

Depending on how deep I want the shadow it's usually either Badab Black or Drakenhoff Nightshade. Rarely I use Casandora, but I don't think it'll go on this model. As for weathering, I may do a very subtle bit, I'm usually not prone to it, and my Forge Lord has spent the majority of the trip rebuilding the thing, so I figure he's given it a new lick of paint and some body work on their way to the warzone :p

[Corsair]

You're legitimately the first person to ever make me tempted to collect Death Guard

[GhostMalone]

Pfft it's still WIP

 

Come to 30 k brother join us

[Corsair]

Would love to, but I'm on a strict no new models ban until I paint at least this thousand points.

 

Wife got a bit ticked at me (rightfully so, I must admit) for buying constantly and never painting

[GhostMalone]

:P

Just had that argument before Christmas

But still after this join us

That;s the main part over and done with, just the arms and the magnets now. Some feedback on the gold would be welcome, tried that golden gryphon dry paint, quite like it tbh

[geektom]

Can you get us a closer pic of some gold?

 

Are you using an ink or wash on it?

How does the Aus $ compare the £? You buy FW like it's nothing.
