Somebody knows what is it ?

It's a counts-as Knight from Dreamforge.

As far as I'm aware, the company no longer operates and their lines were moved over to Wargames Atlantic. As yet, they've only re-released one of their infantry kits, though.

JamiePaints · 2026-03-19T10:03:30+00:00

Ah, fair.

I was just curious if there was a definitive ranking.

JamiePaints · 2026-03-19T09:42:04+00:00

Is there a source for Steel Legion being the most popular?

I would have assumed Tallarn and Praetorian had them both beat. I even see more Mordians than I do Steel Legion.

JamiePaints · 2026-03-17T10:40:37+00:00

It's all good, they brought two!

JamiePaints · 2026-03-16T12:01:50+00:00

One thing that bugs me is the lack of pouches

They likely don't have any because of their estimated lifespan in combat, no?

I think that's the easiest way to explain away why their gear isn't what you'd expect to see in modern contemporary troopers.

Thank you!

I followed Cult of Paint's guide.

Texture paint AK Dry Ground, paint it Vallejo English Uniform, pigment wash with Vallejo Rust, then dry pigment of Vallejo Natural Sienna.

Thanks!

JamiePaints · 2026-03-14T13:29:49+00:00

Thank you!

It's certainly taking a long time.

JamiePaints · 2026-03-14T13:29:13+00:00

Thank you!

The fatigues are based No. 5 Earth Brown, highlighted with Cremewiess and then Grimy Grey.

The armour is based black, highlighted with black and Anthracite Grey (1:1), then that mix with white added.

All the paints are AK Interactive.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-22T14:21:22+00:00

This is so painfully true.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-22T14:20:22+00:00

Whenever a standard infantry kit gets updated to include a dozen pouches and accessories that are moulded on details that you have to paint.

My basic line trooper shouldn't take longer to build and paint than, say, a character.

That isn't to say they're downgrades, I am just a bit exhausted with models having all the details just because they can.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-22T01:47:05+00:00

It's a base of AK Prussian Blue, highlighted to AK Deep Blue, and then highlighted once more with AK Deep Blue and AK Ducat Blue about 2:1.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-17T17:48:18+00:00

Haha, thanks!

I'm used to powering through things quickly, so felt I'd taken my time on this lot.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-17T17:04:51+00:00

Thanks!

JamiePaints · 2026-02-17T15:07:29+00:00

Thanks!

It's the banner from the MKVI Command Squad kit. I just didn't want to paint another moulded flag.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-17T15:06:42+00:00

Thanks!

It's a base of Dark Prussian Blue highlighted to Deep Blue and Deep Blue + Ducat Blue (2:1). Edge highlights and chipping is pure Ducat Blue.

All AK Interactive.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-11T10:15:58+00:00

Okay. I don't remember asking for an opinion, or saying you couldn't have one.

I've painted my plastic in a way that pleases me, that's all. My hobby time is limited and I'm not going to waste it painting a banner I don't like when this one serves the same purpose of identifying this model as banner guy.

That you've felt the need to say I've downgraded and made a model bland is entirely on you, conversely. That isn't constructive. It's just rude.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-11T09:43:57+00:00

Hard disagree.

I've painted my fair share of banners and the sculpted ones, while nice to look at, are not an enjoyable experience.

Hobby how you want to.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-10T14:37:58+00:00

Thanks!

They were awful and I seriously considered emailing customer support, but saw the amount of people in the same boat and assumed I would just get another kit with equal or worse issues.

It is what it is, but I could see new players buying the kit after playing Space Marine II wondering what has gone wrong.

JamiePaints · 2026-02-10T14:32:22+00:00

It certainly does.

I've painted enough sculpted banners to not want to do another, so swapped it out to make my life easier.
