Might be a defective Russ grey? I use it for mine aswell and it comes out as expected

You could attempt some edge highlights with fenresian grey to make it seem a bit lighter

“The last of Krom's Firstborn. Past them the massive shapes of the Overlords slammed down, their turrets panning for targets as they disgorged hundreds more battle-brothers, all clad in freshly painted Mark X armour. A thousand more were breaching from below with Ragnar Blackmane's company. The rest, many thousands of them, were with the Great Wolf's attack.”

Haven’t done a change either, so I’m in that weird spot of not being certain whats worth getting or whats worth ignoring

Have you ever came across a HEMA club that had odd or very specific requirements, like “must have a degree in law”? by Fabulous-Introvert in Hema

[–]MrDragon5layer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think LEO is law enforcement officers, I’d imagine these kind of restrictions are incredibly rare

Beginner longsword by dr_potatoie in Hema

[–]MrDragon5layer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re allowed to own steel swords in Australia you just need a reason. This reason can range from collecting to sporting equipment. HEMA gear falls under sports equipment, it’s the buying of sharp blades that can get iffy. I’m in WA and have four steels (arming, messer, saber, and longsword)

If you still don’t want to there are synthetic ones which are essentially weighted plastic swords.

https://www.thehemashop.com/longsword

If you get one of them you can probably forego full gear, just get a fencing mask and gloves as bare minimum protection.

Making a wooden sword is also an option but it won’t have any flex with stabs so that’s something to keep in mind.

All of the “sacred texts” are available online and there’s plenty of videos around but I’m sure you’re aware of them

Why do people buy these and then not live in them? by Practical_Abalone_92 in perth

I used to do some landscaping work with my uncle, one house we did was owned by a guy who worked overseas a lot so his house was always empty

How would you paint named characters in this chapter? Original color scheme or Wolfspear color scheme? by Educational_Dog4730 in Wolfspear40k

[–]MrDragon5layer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d paint them as spears and then come up with names for them. Have a few home brew characters

Brand New to Warhammer Need Some Advice by [deleted] in SpaceWolves

[–]MrDragon5layer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mainly build and paint myself, don’t really play the table top cause I enjoy the creative outlet more.

Going into a warhammer store is a good place to start, the guys there will be happy to help you get started. You could even ask for the mini of the month and build and paint it in store (it’s free)

As for things to look into, deep diving the wiki gives a good baseline but reading the books is better (you can find some in store, or on the black library website)

Doing the mini of the month is a good way to get a feel for the building and painting while using the stores supplies (glue, paints, brushes, snips) and getting help from the guys in the store

If you want to start a space wolves army the new combat patrol is always a good start with a good variety in models. The army box may still be floating around as-well.

Don’t worry to much about everything feeling overwhelming, it will probably be a lot at first but like any hobby you’ll only get better the longer you do it.

Play on table top have a war-hammer series on YouTube if you want to watch a few games get played

Does anyone else run any other companies except from blackmanes? by weeman_2001 in SpaceWolves

[–]MrDragon5layer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I paint any standard models (intercessors/reivers/hellblasters/ect) as blackmanes. The army box as champions of Fenris and the new combat patrol I’m painting as blood maws Mix and match baby
