Nandor The Relentless Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 My first dabble into black templars, I love the lore and eagerly looking forward to some primaris love for them but i couldn't wait so I thought I'd start my own crusade a little earlier. I've been lurking here the last few weeks checking out other brothers work and it gave me so much inspiration. Here's my primaris sword brethren Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358944-my-first-crusade/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulhunter1995 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I was wondering what those bodies looked like actually so that's definitely perked my interest Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358944-my-first-crusade/#findComment-5401374 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandor The Relentless Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 They are perfect size for primaris marines.

Marshal Vespasian Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Those look great. I am just finishing my first Batch of intercessors with those kromlech bodies. Sadly they only do two Packs of five with those. But I will have to get another Pack of them.

Nandor The Relentless Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 They are kromlech prime legionaries bodies, you can get them robed or with tabards. They are 1:1 scale with primaris, really nice quality too.

Nandor The Relentless Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 Tried a technique out. Started with an airbrush base of P3 thamar black. Then added some lothern blue to make a dark grey blue and highlighted with the airbrush Then added a little white to lighten and did a smaller highlight(first picture) then I went back to thamar black and made a glaze and started glazing back the darker sections with a brush(second picture) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358944-my-first-crusade/#findComment-5401788 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nandor The Relentless Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 Cheers mate, its p3 thamar black all over base coat, Then I highlighted with an airbrush lothern blue and thamar black Then a smaller highlight of the previous mix with a little bit of white in it.

Medjugorje Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 very nice. which colors do you use? GW-colors or another? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358944-my-first-crusade/#findComment-5402148 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandor The Relentless Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 very nice. which colors do you use? GW-colors or another?I use mostly use gw but I used a P3 black paint with these, I prefer the black as its quite highly pigmented it lays better than abaddon black or Vallejo blacks. Looks absolutely ace! Sadly I am not yet confident enough in my airbrushing to try Highlights as Fine as these With this it worked well as I used my original black base coat as a glaze and brought the highlights that were too big back into the shadows and the areas I wanted to be black. Or in some cases glazed a whole section with watered down black then washed my brush of paint and feathered the highlight back in.

Then with a brush I made thamar black into a glaze and glazed back the shadows and blacker parts What are the ratios of black to lothern for the first highlight? Same question for the white on the second highlight. I really like the black that you've achieved.

Nandor The Relentless Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 I'm not sure about the exact ratio, I started with lothern blue in the airbrush about two full brushes. Then added 1 of black and I think I added about a half extra of the black because it wasn't dark enough. It didn't have any of the vibrancy of the blue and I tested a brush stroke of it against the black I was using. And then it was just a half brush of white for the highlight. Â I have the test brush stroke on the paper still I'll take a photo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358944-my-first-crusade/#findComment-5402220 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandor The Relentless Posted October 6, 2019 Author Share Posted October 6, 2019 I hope this helps some, the first highlight was pretty dark, like a dark grey with a blue tint. Or kinda like a dark thunderhawk blue. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358944-my-first-crusade/#findComment-5402221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
