Deus_Ex_Machina Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 So I was too lazy assembling rhinos for the Call of Arms event and decided to put some preliminary work on my forthcoming Shattered Legion project. Three free Primaris test minis have been partly assembled to try a quartered knightly scheme. Right now I only finished the IH and DG versions and those don´t include decals and weathering: Pics: https://ibb.co/album/bQ674C Furthermore the album includes shoulder pads, decal sheets and the unbuilt Tactical Mk2 box. A question for Death Guard and World Eaters experts: What decals on these sheets are used exclusively for traitor versions of the legions? For the Iron Hands it´s pretty obvious as they have decals depicting the eye of Horus but for the other two it´s not so clear at first glance. And another thing: This project will be started in full swing after the Call of Arms event. At the moment only 500 points are planned for games with a boarding actions background. A good decision as painting these quartered schemes takes quite some time.

Deus_Ex_Machina Posted August 10 Author Share Posted August 10 Update: The WE version has been done yesterday: https://ibb.co/album/bQ674C Overall I am satisfied with the results although there needs still some tweaking to be done. The green portion of the DG version is a bit too dark for my taste so this means I won´t be leading with a dark green right after the white basecoat. Luckily I haven´t painted the whole mini yet so there is still space left on the right shoulder pauldron and the helmet to try out a more lighter green tone. And another issue is the orange of the IH. When you put all three together they look like knights alright although one might question why the IH version is so clean compared to the other ones. At first I was too afraid that a brown wash might darken the orange parts too severely so that all following orange tones would be impaired in their impact. So I will add brown wash now to those parts after all and look how it turns out.
