Blindhamster Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I suspect it’s the chest that does it? A lot of the firstborn ones had decorated gorgets or a predominant design on their chest. honestly after looking at Dante I’m pondering replicating his chest design Helias_Tancred 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383422-new-captain-and-priest/page/2/#findComment-6054581 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGSides Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I plan on buying 3-4 of the Captain just to throw parts of him at other units like Bladeguard and the like. Gonna look absolutely SICK with their ripped abs and wearing a towel to the beach. Absolute Chad Marine status at that point.

Helias_Tancred Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Yeah I think I'll at least be getting two of them? I'm very interested in doing a Primaris Brother Corbulo kit-bash I saw on YouTube, on We Paint Minis, or something to that extent? I'm curious how much the captain or sanguinary priest models will affect that? On another topic when do we think they will release this new Blood Angel stuff? In September?

Blindhamster Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 I reckon early September for the big box, late September for the rest Helias_Tancred and Karhedron 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383422-new-captain-and-priest/page/2/#findComment-6054600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonGSides Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 I'm hoping it's October tbh, but I bet it's September for preorders. I only want October so I can save a little more money!

Helias_Tancred Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 I'm currently almost finished painting my apothecary for my Black Templars and given the fact I don't ever want to paint another one of these, there is a very strong chance my next collection WILL BE Blood Angels! lol. From the looks of it, the new Sanguinary Priest has less going on in his sculpt than the standard apothecary, and that's not a bad thing!

Since Apothecary White it's become less a problem imo. My take is light grey basecoat > white zenithal > apothecary white without restraint > white edge highlights Sure, you better don't make any oopsis while painting the other colors around the white areas DemonGSides, Karhedron and Blindhamster 1 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383422-new-captain-and-priest/page/2/#findComment-6054647 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 That is more or less what I have settled on. Still tricky but doing 1 or 2 models is not too bad.

Paladin777 Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 (edited) I use grey seer for my whites, and use an actual white for highlights.

Helias_Tancred Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 7 hours ago, Blindhamster said: Id have said he had more haha. for me the issue is painting white, I hate it! Easy "good enough" apothecary white: Base with Standard Mechanicus Grey, apply a thinned Nuln Oil liberally, dry brush in sequence Administratum Grey, Ulthuan Grey, and a fine dry brush with a pure white, my preference is AP Fanatic Matte White. After that you'll do some touch ups, some edge highlighting with the pure white, and you're done. I just posted that apothecary over on the BT forum under the Araxxian Crusade post. 6 hours ago, Karhedron said: That is more or less what I have settled on.

Helias_Tancred Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 So what color do you guys do your Sanguinary Priest? The last one I did, my final highlight/partial layer was Pallid Whych Flesh ... to give it a slightly bone-colored off white.

MadGreek Posted August 7 Author Share Posted August 7 I do my sang priests more bone color than white as well. Partly because painting white is a pain, but also I like the bone color better for my army theme.

Malphas Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 I'm really happy with the updates thus far, though I'd really like to see the Sanguinary Guard cross the rubicon primaris.

Xenith Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 I lament the lack of artificer nipples, and not the biggest fan of the head sculpts (I guess these days I'd be unhappy with Jes's old faces that I love), but overall happy, they're solid models and I'd be keen to add them to my force.

I'd recommend getting a box or two of the firstborn death company and the sanguinary guard for the various bits, including some of the best BA heads imo.

Helias_Tancred Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 (edited) I'm going to get a box or two of the firstborn Death Company because I especially want to use the blood saltire ones on the shoulders of the jump pack intercessors that are going to get made into my Death Company. I also want to model a classic thunder hammer, but in game it will have eviscerator stats. Not to mention two inferno pistols per box. Gotta get them before they go OOP.

Paladin777 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 I've already got plenty of leftover bits from mine, but that's a smart move.

Blindhamster Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 (edited) I considered doing the same, but honestly feel I’d have too many unused bits now. may see what minor bits I can get on eBay. edit 10 sets of the sanguinary guard accessories ordered lol. For me they’re perfect as the little blood drop pendants can be cut off and used on other models!
