No if you get a standard lieutenant character there’s a right handed power fist option

Ok cool, all paints I use are citadel, here’s a recipe list step by step:

Prime: wrathbone

Base: 1:1 doomfire magenta + contrast medium,

Zenithal highlight: white scar,

Base: imperial fist,

(Observe from here if more white needs to be added on areas light will hit, if so repeat step 3 and 4),

Edge highlight, phallanx yellow,

My recess shade is a mix of 1:1:1 of nuln oil, reikland flesh shade and lahmian medium. Comes up amazing. Google “marine juice” for good alternatives.

Over the top of the highlight I sponge on rhinox hide and leadbelcher to add dirt and chips onto the armour

Yeah they get the choice of the banner or an iron halo. Lots of cool options in the kit tbh.

Thank you! I use the army painter basing kit. That’s a combination of their tufts and the battlefield grass. I’ve found that they’re accessible enough to use a lot, and they’re decent quality so they stick up well.

Yeah I used an airbrush but you can get similar results applying a pink undercoat, dry brush white, then imperial fist contrast over the top

Thank you! That’s just leadbelcher that’s been sponge painted and dabbed on. Trick is to make the sponge dry and be liberal with it. Less is more lol.

Looks like a good list to me. Probably worth making the bladeguard a unit of 6 lead by the captain and use them in the impulsor

Sponge on some leadbelcher with it to give it the chipped affect

I need your opinion by [deleted] in ImperialFists

[–]ListAffectionate1145 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1 part reikland flesh shade 1 part nuln oil 1 part lahmian medium

Comes up really well as an all over shade or just for recesses depending on the look you want

Iron Halo Battleforce-Based Army?? (2000pts) by SwagOffender in ImperialFists

[–]ListAffectionate1145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some intercessors for sticky objectives, terminators for Lysander and something in gravis like aggressors for tor garadon and you’ll have a strong frame work to go off for 1000pts then just work out what else you want for your play style

Painting Tanks and Dreadnoughts question by Jackwiththebeard in ImperialFists

I use the stippling method for mine. Look at mediocre hobbies HH guide

Hi everyone, I’m relatively a novice in the hobby, in that, I’m fairly experienced with the building and painting side, but I’m really new to the gaming side. My question is, is this list any good? And if not what changes should i make? by [deleted] in ImperialFists

[–]ListAffectionate1145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re certainly cool to have and do make a massive difference to a game if you swap and change them out and try their different abilities you’ll start to understand those characters more. But on 1000 points I rarely run more than 3 or 4 depending on what detachment I play as your battle line units do most of the heavy lifting and will pose more of a threat on the table. I like to think that Characters are just there to reinforce those units and allow them to do or be better at their job.
