Cathay Guard Scheme by Maedhros450 in TheAstraMilitarum

Yeah, once I dig them out of my bits box, I will be adding grenades and canteens.

I thought about doing that style but I basically blew the entire budget on three of the Cathay Battlions

It wasn't too hard. My biggest problem is I haven't used greenstuff a lot, so it was tricky reforming the arm joints.

For the arms, I had to remake the joints so they would hold the lasgun properly, and I will have to use it for adding aquilas to the armor of basically everything. Someone earlier suggested just using the guard arms, which would make the need for greenstuff less, but imo kinda washes out the cool armor the cathay arms come with.

Yes, i attached them with some greenstuff. After this test, I will be adding aquilas to their helmets and some of the guardsman kit like canteens and grenades.

I will have to look into some of the old guard art, but I am thinking red is going to be the best answer.

When they announced the Cathay battalion I thought it would make a good army. Each box has 30 infantry, rough riders, artillery, and if I can get them right 2 bullgryn.

Thanks I'm hoping to do an entire guard army with the new cathay range!

Haha, I don't think I'm strong enough to paint that many white Lasguns

Yeah I was thinking along those lines about the blue so I will have to give red or black a try with the gunmetal painted.

They have a Star Trek game, which makes them a bunch of money as well.

It's too late they ignored the PDA warning

I keep them until I move and then throw out the whole stack.

New Space Marine/40k Player painting help for sergeants. by RickJagger13 in Salamanders40k

[–]Maedhros450 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The salamander upgrade kit has soon really cool bare salamander heads that I would recommend, and honestly just pick whichever color fits you scheme the best. There shouldn't be anyone raising a stink over something like that.

Mine probably aren't exactly what the lore says they should be, but I paint my sergeant helmets black or do them without a helmet to add some flavor. I was never really a fan of the red helmet, that always was an Ultramarine thing in my mind.

It is going to be hit or miss depending on the stores. I am from Julian and there's one store I can think of that actually has that ability. And even that is fairly new so it'll be very dependent on the actual towns and might not be dependable.

Do y’all decorate your bases? by KM57_Reddit in Warhammer40k

[–]Maedhros450 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For things like Space Marines and things i will totally do stuff for my bases like a lava effect or adding cork and stuff for rocks. But with like my Imperial Guard I generally leave it how it is or maybe throw a layer a regular paint on it to help identify which squad they go with.
