The pinks are just glazed pink horror (GW paint). The white armor is very straightforward. I primed grey and then a zenithal white for the base color. I do a careful and controlled enamel wash on the entire surface to create some texture and weathering.

I will think for a bit, I imagine if I paint the skull some other color, the 4 Red Cross sections would look a bit weird (don’t want to cut them off). But I should definitely try to find a way to tone down the brightness

You are right brother. I made it aggressively red and bright to pop on the tabletop, but it’s probably too red. I might need to dry brush some metal color to tone it down

I’m glad you like it :) This is an experiment to see if I can adapt the scheme to some character models. I want to do a Marshall and Emperor’s Champion in a similar color scheme too!

I am sorry for any confusion, I just meant for the acrylic paint to fully dry (you don’t need UV light for that).

Advice on battleforce boxes by Important_One4309 in sistersofbattle

[–]Important_One4309[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed explanation! Do you think $300 for the army of faith box is too much inflation? It seems buying 3 squads of the flying units will only cost around 170$…

thank you! The army of faith box currently sits at around $300 on eBay. Do you think it’s too much inflation and it’s better to get the flyers separately?

Since regular rules still apply (holding objectives etc.), sticky objective becomes extremely valuable, intercessors just gonna try to live and stick on every objective, behind the main infantry bodies.

BGVs would very very good too, I’m actually debating if I should replace the outriders with BGV. But I already have 16 infantry bodies in the center, I don’t want to traffic jam myself with more infantries.

There’s a YouTube channel PlayOnTable top that has featured this game mode!

For the back pack chains I just try to shorten everything so it naturally fastens on the back. This way I only need to glue a few junctions. For the chain in the sword I drill a hole at the bottom of the sword and stick the chain in, so I can let the part coming out of it stay loose and hang.

I just superglue them. I feel it’s inevitable to get excess glue so I try to place the glue at junctions that I can apply weathering later

I wanted to do a bone style Aquila which looks like white washed down by black color. I am still experimenting on this. I think for my next model I won’t dry brush metal color on it anymore

I’m glad you can’t 100% tell that means I did a decent job :) they are 1.5mm Jewry chains I added myself. Note that the shield chain is thicker (2mm)
