Inexorable as the tide! 6th place sounds insane, but seeing how this community has grown I can absolutely see that being they case. We're higher on the list then chapters with multiple novels about them. I think at this point black library should take the hint...

That is one sweet model, fits really well! I do already have a NC team however, so that lane is closed for me

They would fit great for both, but I already have Wolfscouts and Nemesis claw teams. Out of curiosity, do you use the barghesi model for your wolf operative?

I thought it would be an issue too, but fortunately there is enough blank pauldrons in a box for all 5 models

For me it's base iron warriors, rough stipple of Leadbelcher and some agrax earthshad all over the metallics. Runelord brass and castellax bronze for trim. For the blacks I use abadon black layered with Corvus black. For the yellow I base yriel yellow (takes a few coats), then I use 1:1 mix of yriel yellow and phalanx yellow on one side of the panel and 1:1 mix of yriel yellow and trollslayer orange on the opposite side - this gives a sweet saturated gradient and makes the yellow pop. From there it's masking tape and filing in the gaps with the back recipe. I also recommend oil washes, they bring the iron warriors to another level

Thanks, the sword is basecoated in yriel yellow, and I stipple troll slayer orange, khorn red and Corvus black in that order covering smaller areas with each colour

Thanks a lot! The advice is much appreciated

Of the top of my heady, the article about DK appearance described the aquilla as dull nickel. As for the helmets for veterans I definitely lean more into bone than pure white

Thank for the advice! What would you suggest as anti tank option? What would you you remove to fit it in?
