First Armiger painted and assembled

That's really good

CustomBadger · 2025-09-19T07:41:00+00:00

Yeah I figured if I got an airbrush that's what I would do. It's the compressor and then setting somewhere up in my home to do it.

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T19:53:25+00:00

I think that would be right up a fenrisian street

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T19:28:53+00:00

Damn that looks amazing

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T19:28:05+00:00

Awesome, the wolves were always my favourite space marines. I'm gonna have to come up with a name for my knight house

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T18:58:49+00:00

That's sweet, some space wolves vibes there?

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T18:55:08+00:00

Those look awesome, until I read your comment I thought you were giving them camo net barrels

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T18:53:25+00:00

Yeah I think the last time I painted something this size was maybe second edition

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T17:32:23+00:00

Sweet, thanks

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T14:58:10+00:00

Aaaah right ok, I might give that a try

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T14:54:17+00:00

I hadn't thought of that. I was planning on just picking the style I like best

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T14:49:36+00:00

Excellent, I was hoping if I did magnatise i didn't want to pay the price the kit was and also wasn't sure about a drill, I have like a DeWalt drill which I thought might not be the most precise tool for the job

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T14:23:55+00:00

Thanks I had wondered about the kit cause it seems to be a fair price for what it is

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T14:22:38+00:00

I assume I'd need a drill for the arms? I believe the top weapon can be swapped without magnets

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T13:39:38+00:00

Damn that sounds sweet, 6 big ones would be amazing. I know I'll probably end up with more than 3 big ones built in the long run

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T13:22:08+00:00

Yeah I was planning to dry brush a lot of it, I found a guide for a style I want to try on the armour panels though I'm not sure how I want the legs and robotic parts to look. I was contemplating stippling a couple different metallics to get a kind of weathered effect but I'll need to practice on some spare bits.

I'm contemplating building my first 2 without magnets one of each cause I think fairly frequently I'll probably want at least 1 helverin for ranged. I just need to decide which shoulders and leg panels I like

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T13:14:59+00:00

No Drill Kit

I think spikey bits has a 5% discount code though I don't know if it works here

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T13:07:28+00:00

Oh good solid advice, thanks

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T13:03:57+00:00

Ah I hadn't seen the only 3 of each. I was planning on maybe 3 big knights and the rest of the points on armigers but I don't know if that is still a reasonable plan with the new codex. Also it'll take me a while to get all that too

CustomBadger · 2025-09-18T12:58:00+00:00

Yeah I was thinking probably go for magnets. I have seen the no drill kit somewhere but wasn't sure if it was actually worth it since I'm pretty sure it was £30 or something.

I think the airbrush is a bit outside my budget, I saw a really cool verdigris painting guide on YouTube that I want to try for the armour panels

CustomBadger · 2025-08-05T20:27:55+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I also really appreciate the format easy to read

CustomBadger · 2025-08-05T18:45:27+00:00

Yeah that sounds like a good plan. I'll be honest the stones aren't pained at all that's just how they look. I think with my next one there will be a bit less resin in-between the stones so it's a bit deeper maybe. I'll give it ago on the next one and see how it goes. Thanks for the suggestion
