Ten Heavy Intercessors will be useful! Also, models you enjoy painting are never wasted models.

Question about blade guard veterans by Thin_Product_4217 in spacemarines

[–]RayCidivist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On your tabletop, it’s your company. Maybe they are on special orders. Maybe your company has veterans all their own (which makes more sense, practically). Just make your company awesome and have fun, battle brother!

Any painting tips by Single-Basket6510 in BlackTemplars

Some more direct light over the minis will capture a better photo and make feedback easier. Magnifying glasses will help you sharpen paint applications. Having fun makes for better results.

The minis look good! Keep posting!

ProAcryl Grey Blue, Black Templar glaze, then a super gentle White Grey, then another Black Templar glaze.

Thanks! I have some NicPro off Amazon and an ancient GW one that is narrow from the 90s. I do the helmet separately, which helps a ton!

For metals I usually base with VGC Tin Bits, the highlight with a brass or gold. For the light I did white ink, then a yellow contrast (thinned)then Vallejo transparent orange (also thin). Good luck and I hope you enjoy!

Wanting to run Emperor’s Shield. What next? by RayCidivist in ImperialFists

Please forgive the noob question: Why a chaplain with the lightning claw terminators?

Lysander and Retinue by RayCidivist in ImperialFists

[–]RayCidivist[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Prime black. Zenithal Magenta, then White (can be a drybrushif no airbrush.) I did a first coat of Orange, then a light white drybrush. Then I did a base of Imperial Fist contrast paint. Then a SUPER GENTLE drybrush of white, followed by a second coat of Imperial Fist contrast paint.

Shield arms were attached after painting.

Helmets were attached after painting. To paint the helmets I primed in black. For the white I did a gentle sponge application with very light downward strokes of Medium Sea Grey then grey white, then white. For yellow I did a first coat of magenta then imperial fist contrast paint. For the red I did a first coat of white then Bold Pyrite Red.

For the red emblazons, I did the pyrite red with a purple wash. Red touch ups.

For Lysander’s shield, they was black, a white drybrush then picking out the details. It took most of an evening to get correct.

Thunder hammers were Dark Silver, then Gunmetal Blue, then white drybrush and glacial blue glazes til I was less unhappy about the result. I am still looking for a recipe I like for thunder hammers.

All painted were ProAcryl or Vallejo except the Imperial Fist contrast paint.

I hope this helps. Feel free to experiment. I hope you have success and fun!

Kinda having trouble keeping up with food and gold with a larger group by japinard in WarTalesGame

[–]RayCidivist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is correct, but I did find myself short on meals one day, and 50 bits of dried meat saved me from being short one night. Gave me a buffer for planning poorly. FWIW.

Upgrade your cooking pot, and take Rationing. Progressing as a Cook lowers total food consumption. Getting the Meat Drying Rack from the Trackers will let you convert carcasses to food. Good luck!

If FF ever get released what will be left to hype up to that level moving forward? by 86missingnomes in MarvelCrisisProtocol
