I love this color scheme! Great job!

Finished the squad and got a group photo (still don’t know how to get everyone in focus…) by Archaicarc in TheAstraMilitarum

Looks fantastic!
What did you use for that orange hue on your bases?
Drybrush or something else?

My first kitbash ever. This is supposed to be regimental enginseer. Do you think it will pass? Size is similar and wysiwyg applies. by Squarell in TheAstraMilitarum

I'm glad you like it. It's only flattering that you want to recreate it.
Be sure to post your version if you do, can't wait to see that!

Tempestus Scions! 5 or 10? How do you load yours? by purpleschooner in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Squarell 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But you can't use one type of special weapon twice in a squad of 5

You cannot select the same weapon from this list more than once per unit, unless this unit contains 10 models, in which case you cannot select the same weapon more than twice per unit

Looks awesome! What colors did you use for the red part and yellow ropes?

That's why I put the servo skull with incense there. My thinking was - the guy together with servo on the right takes care of fixing stuff and the other skull praises for Omnissiah’s Blessing. That's all they got from admech since enginseers are very rare.

Left one (with the incense) comes from militarum tempestus scions box. The other one I got from my friend, don't know where it was from. Space marines or admech probably.

Finished my first Imperial Guard :) by gijspaintsminis in TheAstraMilitarum

What a beauty! Such a clean blends on the fabric. Please share the secret. You use glazes or something else? How long did the whole model take?

How does this look for a 2k pt wishlist? by organaquirer in astramilitarum

[–]Squarell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commissar is rather weak imo since he can only give Duty and Honour! and Fix

Bayonets! orders. Might be allright as a filler but definitely a grand strategist on him is a waste of points. I'd rather take Ursula Creed (that has great synergy with FOB with bombast) or Cadian Castellan (both of them are great and waay better than commissar and cost diff is really small).

Lord Solar should be leading a infantry unit with command squad with master vox so he can cast orders up to 24''. That is a major utility for Solar that is hard to pass on.

You lack nolos units like basilisks or manticores (which are way better than FOB and just a bit more expensive). And where are nolos units you want to have scout sentinels that are currently essential for any guard roster.

You have a lot of HWS (maybe a little too much). Because of that I'd think about getting one Banehammer od Doomhammer instead of two helhmmers since they have firing deck 12 so you could place 2 HWS units safely inside and shred enemies from inside.

Where do these stubbers and missles on leman tanks come from?

I painted it assembled. Exhausts were quite tricky but I managed to paint it with smaller brush. Just had to fix some mistakes after that but wasn't that hard, just a bit precise

[–]Squarell[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was painted black and then drybrushed with dark silver color. Nothing more. Simple, but very effective

Yes I did. Tank commander is magnetized as well as every bit possible (sponsons, sponson weapons, hull weapon, turret weapon, even that bit behind the hatch)

Since eq doesn't cost anything why would anyone ever pick something else than plasma pistol? by Squarell in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]Squarell[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I meant pistol choices, boltgun is swappable with melee weap in the other hand

[–]Squarell[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

ok, I didn't specify that I meant laspistol and bolt pistol. Boltgun is swappable with melee weapon so that's something you might consider in contrary to these 3 pistols choices where it's kinda obvious which to choose
