Wrath's Novamarines

[WrathOfTheLion]

Hello all,

 

WIth 9E in and the new Codex, starting some new projects, including some Lamenters and now some Novamarines. Going to be working on getting at least a combat patrol at first.

 

Starting with a Primaris Lieutenant. This one is a quite simple model without too much ornamentation, so a good one to practice the quartered scheme on.

 

Not certain if I should do standard codex style helmet markings on novamarines, I think I will to change them up some.

Thanks! I'm enjoying the quartered scheme, I think they're going to be a fun project.

I need to try it. What’s your recipe for white ?

[WrathOfTheLion]

Since the novamarines have bone white, I do the deathwing white scheme. I prime in wraithbone spray or vallejo desert tan with an airbrush to get a beige prime, then I basecoat with ushabti bone. Then do a recess shade of seraphim sepia and a highlight of screaming skull. For the blue, I undercoat using black paint first, in this case vallejo model color black.

 

If you airbrush ushabti bone on the primer, I would always give it a thin coat with a brush. The coverage always pops a bit more with brush paint, been quite noticeable with that one.
