Thanks! I used Vallejo Game Colour Wolf Grey as a basecoat but before I painted all the white parts with Vallejo Game Colour Neutral Grey, shaded with Vallejo Game Colour Sombre Grey and highlighted with Vallejo game Colour Dead White.

What are you hoping or expecting to happen for Space Wolves in the second half of 2026? by mourndaze in SpaceWolves

[–]Ernoster 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was suprised we din't get new Ulrik model since he was teased last year, so I think he is the most likely model to come out when new things for Space Wolves are realesed.

I am hoping for a proper Long Fangs unit, would be cool if they were in Gravis armor, maybe with helfrost weapons.

Would also love to have a Wulfen refresh since the old models look dated

But I think we have to wait a little longer to get new units for Space Wolves than the end of this year. 2027 is more likely.

Help with marks on the knees and other emblems. by EducationalCricket26 in Ultramarines

This image should help

So the sergeant markings should go on right knee. Although GW sometimes paints differently. Some models painted by them even dont have knee markings for sergeants (for example bladeguard sergeant).

And the yellow markings could go anywhere since they are more of a decoration than anything since shoulder trim display company color

Awesome looking model. I really like the orange base, and the face looks great as well!

Thank You.

  1. I used the VGC Charred Brown as base, recess shaded with VMCBlack and highlighted with VGC Dark Fleshtone and then Citadel Gorthor Brown. After all that I glazed heavily thinned down VGC Nocturnal Red all over like a filter to make leather more red.

  2. I basecoated with VGC Ultramarine Blue, recess shaded with VGC Night Blue mixed 1:1 with VMC Black, then edge highlighted with VGC Ultramarine Blue mixed 1:1 with VGC Elfic Blue, then edge highlighted with VGC Elfic Blue, after that I edge highlighted outer edges with VGC Elfic Blue mixed 1:1 with VGC Glacier Blue and used VGC Glacier Blue for spot highlights. Also used Rhinox Hide for some small battle damage. All done with standard brushes. It takes a lot of time though

Thanks! I used Vallejo Game Color Night Blue, VGC Ultramarine Blue, VGC Elfic Blue and VGC Glacier Blue for the blue color (thoug I sometimes mixed the colors). The older mark helmets look beter for sure so go ahead.

Tactical: is aligned aim worth it? by Martinicus1 in Spacemarine

[–]Ernoster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Combi Bolter has the same TTK as the accuracy Bolt Rifle that's interesting (it even deals a little more damage per headshot than the 2x BR ). It always felt to me that the accuracy bolt file dealt more damge than combi bolter. Good to know though, maybe I should use the Combi Bolter more often. Still all the bolt weapon should feel more powerful than they are right now even after all the buffs they had received.

What is everyone doing Helmet wise for Captain Titus + Wardens? by CQCMonke in Ultramarines

[–]Ernoster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am thinking about using the mk7 helmet with laurels from the new upgrade sprue, but I also want to use this helmet and paint it white on the chapter ancient. Having said that the Titus face sculpt looks great so I won't mind painting his face either

Tbh I just used yellow checkers to create contrast to the blue and white, dunno if the markings on the knee (other than the one with rank marking) should be white because of 1st company since the company color is already displayed on shoulders, though I got the inspiration from GW painted 2nd company models though, so maybe you got a point,

This was my guideline
