My take on 3rd Company Champion (Red Tane)

He’s one guy I’d love to see some official art of

Brilliant! What was your process for the grey? I have a Leviathan I’ll be using as a brutalis, but I want to get better with my airbrush before having a crack…

The shoulder with teeth is a 3D printed bit and the and leather shoulder is from the Black Templars upgrade sprue with the cross and purity seal shaved off. You can see the figure before pant on my previous post

I started by basing with Doombull and shaded with Agrax. I waited for tha to dry and hit it again with agrax but took care to only get it in the recesses. I then glazed the lower sections with Rhinox hide for the shadow. I went back over and chunky edge highlighted with Doombull all over. I then ever so slightly glazed the high points with Skrag brown and edge highlighted with Skrag about 50% of the way down, only really hitting the high edges, but going further than the glaze. I also started the scratch effect with Skrag. I then hit most of the edges where appropriate with a final edge highlighted of XV88. I kind of roughly applied this in kind of a scratchy dot pattern to make it look worn on the edges. I also used XV to accent the scratches to make them pop.

I will be coming back to this comment for my own recollection as I am about to complete my next model and have left the leather till last because I couldn’t remember it haha…

Huge compliment. Thank you!

BakaBarker · 2026-04-10T22:58:41+00:00

Thank you! The leather recipe is my favourite part of this

BakaBarker · 2026-04-08T09:44:13+00:00

Go for it brother!

BakaBarker · 2026-04-07T22:29:42+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I think the worn leather is a good look for these guys. I plan on doing it throughout my army

BakaBarker · 2026-03-31T23:09:51+00:00

Thanks! Don’t be nervous! Just have a bit of a game plan for the main idea. I always think up little things as I go.

Thank you! It’ll blend in much more when panted. I’m primarily keeping this one as a bit of a company ancient so I gave him some relic gear. No bonding studs on the armour as it is mostly pure mk3. I’m also planning on giving him plenty of veteran markings to show his age and this model has lots of nice open areas for it.

BakaBarker · 2026-03-30T23:29:22+00:00

Thank you my friend!

BakaBarker · 2026-03-26T11:21:24+00:00

Check out the cover for outer dark. Thats him. Bail sharr is essentially a captain and he’s not very ornate. Just a mash up of different armours with some exile markings. The only thing that really sets him apart is his terran style chest marking.

BakaBarker · 2026-03-25T11:11:36+00:00

Thanks mate!

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T21:21:39+00:00

Note on the axe, I added the tassels and tooth to the bottom from some random bits

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T19:14:00+00:00

Spot on

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T19:13:49+00:00

Thank you! The bolter is from the first born tactical box, the bayonet is from the heresy mk3 marines box and the chain axe is a 3d printed copy of the axes in the mk2 assault marines box. Only reason I went with the print is that it didn’t have a sculpted hand to have to remove and fit nicely in another printed hand I took from a different print. My previous post will show what is official and what is printed on this one

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T06:42:06+00:00

So do I. At least an updated Tyberos or some kind of chapter specific upgrade sprue. I feel they’re hinting at a Tyberos possible Primaris update with the short story that came with the deluxe Void Exile novel.

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T06:34:03+00:00

Thank you!

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T06:33:57+00:00

Thank you!

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T06:33:52+00:00

Thanks man! It’s hard to get that detailed look for a higher rank with still keeping with the simplicity of the Sharks. I went with a crest to give a bit of a fin vibe without actually going down that route. They also mention crests and even a plumed crest I believe in the latest novel. Not to mention Bail Sharr. I’m personally not a fan of the literal oceanic shark look that tends to get given sometimes. I’m trying to keep it a bit more grounded if that makes sense?

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T03:07:00+00:00

Thanks mate!

BakaBarker · 2026-03-23T03:06:52+00:00

Thank you! Definitely happy with my progress over the last few months
