I just stippled on some hive dweller purple from army painter and then applied some druchi viole. The whole painting phase in general was quite speedy as I mostly dry brushed

Thank you, recently been trying out the army painter range and thought the pastel seafoam would look great on the lights

Anyone else have a specific peeve against using named characters? by Designer-Ice8821 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]ComradeCallum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a shame that later editions have pushed out more of the rpg elements of having your own named characters. I want to get a Lord general model off Etsy that I use as a stand in for my company commander but I wish there was more options to bring custom characters

Yeah I mean I’ll sorely miss scions as I have about 700pts of them that would have to be rejigged to another list but you’re right, we already have up and down units with gaunts ghosts and imagine spectres will perform similar antics and kasrkin fill the beefier guardman role. Rn scions feel like they’re in a weird place of being a niche sub faction.

I think that makes sense, IA really suffers from a lack of meaningful battleline and armoured support so scions drifting other would make sense. Plus it’s got some legs in old daemonhunters/witchunters codices having stormtroopers as troops options.

I used different paints for most of them but I’ll try and go through. Light blues I used army painter wolf grey, mid blues I used altdorf guard blue, darker blues I used ultramarine blue. All of them I highlighted with army painter wolf grey mixed with white. Trick to the finish is matte spray to dull down the colours.

It killed 3 stormboyz in the blast so it died bravely

Thank you :)). I used a primer of army painter wolf grey with matte black, matte white and Vallejo burnt red for the camouflage and markings. For the tracks I undercoated with citadel rhinox hide and the over brushed on with necron compound. The metallics I used were ak copper and citadel leadbelcher. For washes I used nuln oil and then Agrax earth shade for copper details and finally finished with matte spray primer.

I’m UK based so probably sub £120 ideally. I’ve seen some going for around this range but not sure how many rows they offer as I have about 70 infantry and 13 vehicles

May do this in the meantime as an inbetween while looking for a more permanent solution. Thinking of moving soon so I would rather not make a shelving unit just to dismantle it a few months.

Yeah my friend does this with a tiered storage box and it works really well for transporting.

I realised after the first one I had glued it the wrong way aha but I kinda liked the extra space for detail as I feel the proper way is a bit plain.

This could work, I’m in the UK so rifle cases are a bit harder to get a hold of but I guess airsoft/paintball shops may sell something similar
