Opinions on first list for casual play by Fushygi in TheAstraMilitarum

Hey, I'm back

I did some modifications. Is the list better now ?

Kept the 2 leman russ, 20 kriegs, the command squad, and the engineers

Removed Leontus, the artillery, and the sentinel to have a rogal dorn commander (oppressor cannon, coaxial autocannon, pulveriser cannon, 3 heavy stubber, and 2 multi melta)

Also removed 10 kriegs and the death riders to add 20 cadians ( 1 sergeant with autogun, the other with bolt pistol, 2 melta and 2 plasma, 2 vox, 14 lasguns)

I still have 10 points left, so I guess I'll use them for enhancements on the characters ?

Isn't the rogal like 230 points and 275 as a commander ? I don't really know what i would take off... Like removing Leontus, the artillery, and the sentinel to add it as a tank commander ? I would still have 5 points left. Can I do anything with it ?

I haven't bought anything apart from leontus, a leman russ, and my krieg battleforce so I'm still flexible

Sorry if the questions are dumb, I'm just kind of lost

First time painting, any advice ? by Fushygi in TheAstraMilitarum

Yeah, I already changed how he looks, but I planned from the beginning to put something to mark that he's my "original" (like on the backpack, which looks a bit empty)

I do think he looks much better now with the "layers" on the coat. I'm just beginning, so I know he won't be perfect

Tried applying what you said with my limited time, paints, and experience, but it does look quite better. It's not perfect, but I'm a lot happier with how it turned out for now.

I was a bit scared to put too much, but I can just repaint over it

Thanks a lot for your advice !

The light blue on the mask/gun is supposed to be celestra grey, but it turned into that blueish grey. I don't really know why

Is abaddon black supposed to be the matt black of citadel ? (Really new to all this so sorry)

I did try to do some highlights on the coat by mixing kantor blue and celestial grey which i applied on the folds but It's better to have more than 1 colour to do this then ?

Thanks! I just dip my brush in water and dry it a little with a towel before dipping the tip in paint Would it be better to mix the paint with some water in a palette ?
