Wassa Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 So I've picked up my first pack of Scions, and originally I thought I wanted to paint them black like a SWAT team, but I can't decide between that and the standard blue pictures. Example of black scions (not mine): Thoughts? My Bullgryn I decided to do green, but I'm also wondering whether to paint it the blue to give it a contrasting colour to the rest of my green army.

WarriorFish Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 My Guard have a temperate camouflage scheme: So the Bullgryns have a matching scheme: This isn't the case for Stormtroopers, as they're the elite forces they wear the Inquisitor Lord's colours: With the Auxilia nature of Bullgryns and that Scions can be a separate regiment you have free reign to make them as similar or different as you like :) In particular the classic Inquisition colours of black and red look good on them. All pictures from B&C painting events ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351516-show-us-your-scion-bullgryn-colour-schemes/#findComment-5201757 Share on other sites More sharing options...

our_baz Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I've did something similar to @warriorfish with my scions. As they are spec ops I painted them different to my grunts. My bullgryns got the same treatment as my line troops Edit: spelling Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351516-show-us-your-scion-bullgryn-colour-schemes/#findComment-5201986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I don't have any photos at the moment but I'll probably paint my bullgryns the same colour as my cadians. I do my Kasrkin in the same (standard) colours as my own cadian regiment, while my inquisitorial stormtroopers are black with a silver trim and royal blue fatigues.

WarriorFish Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 oo I love the blood, is that the blood from games workshop? It is, bit of good brush application (don't be stingy with it) finished with some brush flicks for some more realistic splatter :) Great to see people flexing their creativity on the support to the grunts :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351516-show-us-your-scion-bullgryn-colour-schemes/#findComment-5202587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassa Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 Managed to get my Bullgryns into cover in the middle of the battlefield last night, and buffed with Psychic Barrier to give them a 0+/3++ save. They practically soloed the 500 point battle! I think they now deserve more than 1 Bullgryn to be painted :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351516-show-us-your-scion-bullgryn-colour-schemes/#findComment-5202618 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have fun painting them, they are one of my favorites to paint.

adamantium_wang Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I've just started work on my Stormtrooper battalion, here's the first squad completed. I don't have any Bullgryns in my army, so have my Prime and the detachment's Commissar instead.

The Black Guard Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Hi guys, This is my first time using BC so if anyone had any pointers on how to post images (of bullgryns and scions and stuff) that would be great. There not as good as the others but I might as well! xD Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351516-show-us-your-scion-bullgryn-colour-schemes/#findComment-5202943 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Welcome to the B&C Black Guard, duz made a little tutorial here as the 101 is a bit out of date. If you need further help the commissariat is only a PM away :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351516-show-us-your-scion-bullgryn-colour-schemes/#findComment-5202974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Guard Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Cheers, I think I have got it figured out now! These are my bullgryns: With my scions looking like: And my normal guard : The bullgryns have been absolute beasts in my last few games (especially when buffed), carving up lots of heretics!

Bjorn Firewalker Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 My Bullgryn I decided to do green, but I'm also wondering whether to paint it the blue to give it a contrasting colour to the rest of my green army. My Bullgryn: http://i.imgur.com/LNfwmQAl.jpg I like the way he looks. As for colors, green best matches the grass you have decorating his base- he looks camouflaged, as appropriate for an Astra Militarum serviceman. Blue armor is more appropriate if the base decorations are of urban terrain, or naval (see images of Chinese marines and their equipment, such as this one, of the ZBD-05 amphibious vehicle).
