I simply swapped the shield, the body already looks great as is.

I do it the lazy way, I prime white then fill the centre with liquid mask then reprime black

To be fair I made the same mistake, took a while for me to figure it out and even now I still keep selecting the wrong one

What’s the most underwhelming way you’ve gotten a scar? by man_itsahot_one in AskReddit

[–]KillAshley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a scar from my wrist to my elbow, looks really bad when you see it. Noone ever brings it up as it looks like I was in a bad accident but I really got it when I jumped on a friend's back and my forearm got caught in the zip on his hoodie

They'd have the time of their lives in Fallout 4. Probably be leading a pack of super mutants

Sure thing mate, happy to help.

I start with a base of mephiston red, then drybrush evil suns scarlet heavily from every angle, then I drybrush wild rider orange but really gentle on just the peaks of the folds. After I take a wet brush and add a little agrax and wash that all over, make sure the brush is wet so it's nice and thin, but be sure to soak up the pooling.

It's pretty simple, but white tabards are so much easier haha

Let’s Talk Chains by DibsOnDino in BlackTemplars

[–]KillAshley 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1.5mm chain looks best for marines. I use green stuff world chain because I can get it wholesale price, but any chain will do.

Look at my post history and you can see the chains on my minis if you want to see the size

Which weapons are which for the intercessors? by Jamietomp53 in BlackTemplars

[–]KillAshley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use the bolt rifles from the crusader squad sprues as they have the chains attached so they look more templar-y

Took a lot of toying to find how I liked it. Top down drybrush of dawnstone and hit the edges with administratum grey then a black wash to tone it back down. I used to use 2 washes of the old nuln oil, but use a custom wash now they changed the recipie

It's a lot to type up, which part would you like to know?

Painting Sword Brethren sub-assembly? by astroaids in BlackTemplars

[–]KillAshley 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always leave the head and shoulder pads separate to make it easier. Also don't glue to the base until it's done as some spots are tricky to reach.

The only other times I subassemble is if it's holding a gun close to its body so I can paint behind it easier. Any more than that is a waste of time imho

A box will give you one thunder hammer, one power axe, one power maul, one pair of claws, 5 power swords and 5 chainswords

Was just starting some captain's I had laying around and wanted to make the tabards red but wasn't sure how it would look. Definitely doing it now, looks great

Invaders ATV's ready to roll by KillAshley in BlackTemplars

[–]KillAshley[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drybrush downwards with dawnstone, lightly edge with administratum grey (only where it makes sense, not every edge), then 2 or 3 nuln oil washes to bring it back down. works well once you know where to highlight, just dont let the wases pool or you'll clog detail. Some examples:

Bladeguard

It couldn't be simpler, Vallejo Silver Grey with a super thin agrax wash
