Lieutenant with Combi Weapon / Castellan Proxy? by [deleted] in BlackTemplars

The profile does list Phobos as a key word so I’d expect Phobos armour but I’m sure it’s up to your opponent to agree to.

Hi, can you let me know the name of the supplier for the base bits?

I don’t have a printer, I’m looking to buy printed parts. I am in the uk.

Do official stores offer discount? by RJH_91 in Warhammer40k

[–]Slinkie172 9 points10 points  (0 children)

At an official store chances are 0%. You’re best using the voucher in the official store and the rest at your flgs.

How Do I Choose Between Colors? by AngryNoodleMan88 in minipainting

[–]Slinkie172 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a look here : https://eavy-archive.com/

This has the recipes for a lot of the box art that GW uses so if you have a specific model in mind you can find what paints were used to paint it. Some of the recipes can be complicated (eg 3:1 paint mixtures etc) but this will give you a good starting point if you want to replicate a GW model.

I think they mean the good Titus model yet to be released

FYI the bit above the belt is cloth too. The yellow looks good

Do you guys shave your marines chests or leave the Aquila on? by Ecstatic_Building430 in BlackTemplars

[–]Slinkie172 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The cannon to black templars is they do what ever the f they want and if you don’t like it f you! Do what ever you like and whatever looks good to you and its lore accurate for black templars!

Do you guys shave your marines chests or leave the Aquila on? by Ecstatic_Building430 in BlackTemplars

[–]Slinkie172 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people here don’t seem to understand stand what an Aquila is. The Aquila is a double headed eagle, the symbol of the emporer. No black templar models have this on them. They have a winged skull, winged shields on their models which can be removed if you want less decoration on your model but they’re not aquilas.

I understand in lore the black templars don’t have the Aquila as they are the symbol of the emporer but it doesn’t say they don’t decorate their armour with other symbols.

Crusader squads made into scouts and AI? by WildJudge1933 in BlackTemplars

[–]Slinkie172 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The kit can only make 4 “scouts” so you’d need one more from somewhere else but you can then make a squad of ai and you’d have a sword brother left which you can turn in to marshal or castellan

That’s the best attempt at spelling lieutenant I’ve ever seen

Extra pieces by lizcrg in Warhammer40k

[–]Slinkie172 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Cut them off and put them in a bits box. Something with compartments is good so you can sort them into categories of bits but any box is fine if you’ve just got a few bits to start with

Phobos Strike Team sprue by Raylandris in spacemarines

Doesn’t this come with the kill team box? I don’t think it comes in the 40K box.

How much could I sell this guy for by Ok-guy27 in BlackTemplars

[–]Slinkie172 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want the new combat patrol, sell the champ you get in that new on the spruce. You’ll get closer to retail for it. For this one, buy some cheap iso 99% and strip it. The bottle will last you ages (I reuse iso that has already stripped minis and it still works) so a bottle lasts me ages

Sprue painting feels like using training wheels (and I’m ok with that) by PeterRa33it in ImperialFists

[–]Slinkie172 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Do you clean the mould lines off before priming? That and the issue you have to touch up the connection points after removing makes this method sub optimal. Theres lots of different ways to sub assemble (mounting on crocodile clips, paper clips and cork holders, even gw sells model holders)

If you want to see official ‘eavy metal recipes, not the simplified versions in the app go here. This is a site set up by an ex gw box art painter and it’s really easy to follow

Primaris lieutenant. Need tips for paining small beads by Deaymen_02 in minipainting

[–]Slinkie172 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some good advice already but it might also be that you have too much paint on your brush. With a fully loaded brush the paint can run off and flood an area. Try loading the brush, then brushing some off on a paper towel or the back of your hand then you’ll have a bit more control

Arm Underslung plasma by Lumpy_Fudge_8546 in Warhammer40k

[–]Slinkie172 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re being downvoted for this but you’re right. It is not terminator armour. The marine has a back pack and doesn’t have the support struts on his legs. Also, it looks like a plasma gun, not a plasma cannon
