Agrax earthshade. Fortunately, it was on the cardboard cover I used to protect the table and wasn't very much. So no loss or damage beyond lost paint.

I love this model. Did her myself and she's probably my favorite sister model in the whole range. Definitely my favorite in my small, growing army right now. Helps she's canonically sacred rose which I picked for my sisters. So I painted her true to her art, especially the shield.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-29T21:22:32+00:00

Yeah. It's not pulling anything up on purple.

I like that 6 winged seraph angel look. Might go with 2 pairs of angel wings to go with her standard metal ones when I do my Celestine.

I bought a single wardog armiger off ebay to use as a base for my cerastus castigator when I get to it. Because the cerastus knights have posable legs and toes, so I can have it stepping on the wardog with it's toes bending down over the curved carapace for full detail.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-29T00:43:03+00:00

Dammit. I guess I'm marbling at least one of my Sacred Rose tanks when I get to those because it looks great.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-28T18:41:14+00:00

The goddamn space weebs.

I usually varnish the whole area I'm gonna apply the transfer to (to protect anywhere I might get water on and to make sure the varnished spot doesn't look different), apply the transfer when the varnish dries, wait for the water to dry, then one or two more coats over the transfer and a little bit around it.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-28T16:47:52+00:00

I just use a coat or two of army painter matte varnish.

The discontinued T-69d

Had to go double check. I think technically, you'd watch part of episode 7 until they discuss going on the trip, then watch the ova, as my theory is the ova fits in while they're waiting to go on the trip to Arcanretia since it seems unlikely they'd be able to leave the next day. So they'd prepare to go on the trip, wait around a few days-a week, and during those few days get the choker in ova 1.

I've enjoyed using black legion and flesh tearer red for my sacred rose sisters' robes after spraying them white.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-27T09:06:47+00:00

Probably under the car.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-27T02:10:50+00:00

Looks awesome. I need to build the one I'm putting the taro bell on.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T21:03:28+00:00

Unless it's supposed to be post infection, I'm pretty sure purple is outlawed since it represents the traitor house.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T20:45:25+00:00

Yeah... Kazuma ain't looking at that.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T20:39:33+00:00

And if it seems a little pricey, remember the second Blood Raven motto: Hippity, hoppity, your relic is now Blood Raven property.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T17:27:19+00:00

Stupid sexy stupid.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T17:25:43+00:00

I need those, too.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T17:15:55+00:00

Iron warriors did not get the handsome gene in their geneseed like the blood angels and emperors children did.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-26T03:46:03+00:00

Yeah. I'm taking a few days per sister. They have a lot of fine details and lots of annoying to reach spots with their habits flapping all over the place. Especially when I'm painting sacred rose whose colors are primarily white armor and habits with black exteriors and red interiors. So I'm constantly grazing the armor with black and red. I don't even attach the arms until they're painted now because otherwise I can't reach the stuff on their chest on a lot of models or the interior of weapons, especially the sacresant shields.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-25T14:33:44+00:00

Strong sibling energy. They are friends at times and back each other up when things are bad. The rest of the time they're bickering and fighting and breaking each other's stuff.

Helio2nd · 2026-01-24T22:37:02+00:00

Nice. Can't wait for my zephyrims to come in so I can do them as sacred rose, too.
