Gederas Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 ^ that Buuuuut, the Native American theme is dying out... There are some feathers here and there on Termies but the big feathered crests visible on some DW Sergeants and Masters as well as the backs of the bikes are really not that Native American - more like references to angels or, in the case of bikes, the Polish Winged Hussars? Maybe? Look, if go for secretive monastic knights - you're there 100% Ah, how could I forget WHEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVE But yeah, mostly secretive monastic knights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicodemus Doloroso Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 EDIT: Sorry I'll keep the Guard stuff off until we have some Dark Swords to compare them to for commentary on how the color schemes match up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Fighting Monks, with Knight armour! Just like Semper says. If your son likes bikes for with his Shroud then go for it; although Black Knights are the business, normal bikers are points efficient in smaller games and with betabolters and chainswords can do good work on chaff.

Interrogator Stobz Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 His Guard look really good, to be fair to the BnC though they don't totes belong in the DA forum without DA present. The Barracks would love to see them ofc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicodemus Doloroso Posted May 26, 2019 Author Share Posted May 26, 2019 Ok, here's some Dark Swords update ... not bad for a kid who's technically "too young" to play 40K (I believe it's recommended 14+ on the model kits): He did a second Seraphim Sepia wash and I think it improved things. So far so good with the green and metal colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Looks good! :tu: Nice posing too! It’s good to see that he’s getting accustomed to the use of washes, the end result is very rewarding! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 It’s a really good start. I don’t know if you keep up with rumours but I check out the new citadel contrast paint range due to be released in June. They are being marketed at beginners and seem like a great way to get kids started in the hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValourousHeart Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Your son is starting off really strong with his painting. Be sure to keep some of those first attempts around to compare with your son's later progress. It is inspiring to see how much better we get with time.

I think we'll just "Stay the course" with the Deathwing, then try out those contrast paints on the regular marines and Ravenwing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
