40kFSU Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 So I’ve been working on an Ultramarines army. It’s the first army I’ve painted using an airbrush and, man, what a difference. I’ve still got a long way to go to get a better technique but I figure these guys look pretty ok. Starting with a bunch’s tanks and Inductii.

Pearson73 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Looking sharp! I really like the helmet stripes and the use of transfers.

TheArtilleryman Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Beautifully done! Lovely colour and shading - a bit brighter than we usually see so it really pops. It must have taken some time and effort to get that line of Us right on the top of that rhino… Firedrake Cordova 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383316-horus-heresy-ultramarines/#findComment-6050964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

40kFSU Posted July 21 Author Share Posted July 21 Thanks for all the kind words! the blue is actually the Army Painter air triads. I think that’s what it’s called. I’ve totally switched from GW to those paints. I love them. as for the progress, I have cheated a bit. The army is almost finished. So, more pics… I am really happy with the recon marines Bouargh, Dr. Clock, TheArtilleryman and 6 others 6 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383316-horus-heresy-ultramarines/#findComment-6051044 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkMark Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Great job. Which AP triad did you use? Firedrake Cordova 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383316-horus-heresy-ultramarines/#findComment-6051299 Share on other sites More sharing options...
40kFSU Posted July 24 Author Share Posted July 24 So the rifle parts I got off an eBay shop. They sold the scopes and barrel extension. Can’t remember the name, I think I just search 40k sniper rifle or something like that. The triad paints are below. They are really simple to use but I think if I had it to do again I would mix the last 2 as a final highlight. So it wouldn’t be quite as light. Also, more stuff….
