Lifeafter Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Taking this 1,000 points for a spin this weekend. I know it's not the most competitive build out there, but it's fun and I'm happy to be back in the game. Also, a lot of these bits are 10+ years old. So much metal and repurposed chaos on these boys! I first started painting deathwatch 10 years ago based off of a black and white pdf. So I didn't know that the DW shoulder pad was all silver. I painted the inside gold, like Grey Knights. I'm sticking with it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356159-first-half-of-my-updated-dw-army/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syward Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I really like the shoulders with gold inside bordered by the silver like you did. :tu: I may steal that idea from you - it looks really sharp. (I'm sure each Watch Fortress can be a little unique in their markings no? ) Good luck with your game and let us know the outcome! (I'm especially curious about how your drop pod works out for you - I've got gone base coated, but not sure if I should use it or not) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356159-first-half-of-my-updated-dw-army/#findComment-5319986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Good job. Are your models' red bases meant to represent Mars' red soil? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356159-first-half-of-my-updated-dw-army/#findComment-5320066 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifeafter Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 Yes, or a similar planet. I used to have my DW army on tan gravel bases back in the 25 mm days, and a painting judge at Adepticon one year told me that it didn't really match my scheme. He said a dark red would look better. Rebasing to 35mm seemed the perfect opportunity to take his advice.

sockwithaticket Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 The gold shoulder interior actually works surprisingly well and doesn't look especially Grey Knightish.
