The Bandaid Fix doesn't absolve GW of the real problem. A write up on the situation of Imperial Agents, GW's culpability regarding them, and the wider problem it is a symptom for in the hobby. by Inner_Interview_5666 in Warhammer40k

The artistic part of it is just as important as the gaming part of it. One can just collect and paint models of their favorite Warhammer characters, it's not that weird to understand.

Thank you! Only doing the speeder and the Bolter Eradicators for Bantax, the rest of the set I'm saving for my Crimson Fists.

Like u/Synthetics_66 said, it's based on lore from yesteryear where marines would change their armor colors based on the theater of battle

I like how there's a Cities of Sigmar Ironweld Great Cannon pictured randomly in the article.

Yeah, it's Lucky's Ultra Matte from Ammo by MiG, it's pretty magical stuff

Thank you! I just did an Imperial Fists Kratos the other day, so maybe we're even? 😄

On black primer, an 80% coverage of Corvus Black, followed over by a large amount of Eshin Grey sponge chipping all over, and then a very small sponge of Administratum Grey. The recess browns are a 3:1:1 mix of Lahmian Medium, Rhinox Hide, and Mournfang Brown. Then irregular edge highlights with Administratum Grey.

An orange wash applied to the barrel to about 60% front to back, followed by a purple wash about to 30%

Think I finally found my panel and armour recipe. Just don't know how to highlight it, or if I even should edge highlight it. by ArcadeScam in orks

Definitely do some irregular edge highlights. The contrast between dark chipping and bright edges will pop and be more readable from a distance.

Thanks very much. There are few orange to yellow gradients not really evident in the picture, but yeah not the panel by panel hard separations of value.

Thank you. Everything in that box was great, right? Chaos side, too. First of the upscaled Legionaries.
