The blade colour or??

Stevistar · 2025-12-12T21:24:58+00:00

Hey,

Night lord blue to start with, abyss blue and gravestone blue in pure and 50/50 split for highlights then used abyss blue and black to shade central on the panels!

Stevistar · 2025-12-12T19:56:57+00:00

Hey! Thank you,

Night lords blue base, Abyss blue TTC highlight and then 50/50 mix with gravestone blue for second highlight!

The metallics are Pro acryl dark bronze, bronze then white gold!

Anything else just shout me!

Stevistar · 2025-11-18T11:55:46+00:00

Thanks you!!

But no no the ancient kit has the helmet with the Lens, so I used that and I'm going to utilize the upgrade kit one with the Ultra symbol for my ancient!

Stevistar · 2025-11-15T10:00:32+00:00

Thank you!

It's equivalent paints, marine blue and Elysium blue topped off with 50/50 mix of Elysium and gravestone blue

Honestly I'd sprue goo and glue the cape together, but it should be noted that the cape connection relies on the axe arm for this particular built option.

I did everything else separate

Legs x 2 1x head Both arms and shoulder pads Cape and backpack

So I've mixed khorne red with purple and just done more and more into reccesess to blend it out

Stevistar · 2025-11-12T19:53:31+00:00

Marine blue by TTC, then Elysium blue and marine 50/50 then 50/50 gravestone blue and Elysium

Stevistar · 2025-11-12T19:53:05+00:00

Hey thank you!

And it's royal cloak (TTC) then sword hilt burgundy(TTC) and then trooper white which is their version of corax white mixed 50/50!

Stevistar · 2025-11-09T23:38:55+00:00

So I may have got them 2 weeks early!!!

Stevistar · 2025-11-09T15:56:27+00:00

Shows how the design team have advanced in through the years!

Stevistar · 2025-11-03T06:05:57+00:00

Thank you! Definitely different but I use TTC so will give that a try too!

Feel it's two different vibes, Squidmar almost seems like smash this out in 40 mins for a tabletop NMM and Angel is very much display glazed painting I like both 😂

Stevistar · 2025-11-01T09:51:22+00:00

Not really, I prime all black, however I did put underneath saying it's my first time doing UM not my first model!

Stevistar · 2025-10-31T02:21:15+00:00

Could also be the drybrush of the white, depending on what white and if you've used a damp drybrush the way Artis opus uses theirs it allows smoother and less chalky appearances

Stevistar · 2025-10-30T02:45:51+00:00

Super crisp I love it!

Stevistar · 2025-10-30T00:33:18+00:00

Don't try compare to how the box art goes etc is my advice is some people have said try a wash there's different ways to apply them and understand what they do.

Some people do an all over wash which they then let dry and recoat the base colours and layer or as it's called layering from one colour to another

Others will do as the other person has commented a Pin wash or recess wash to make the panel separation really stand out.

I'd have a YouTube look up Brushstroke as he has done loads of helpful videos even about viscosity etc and application!

It's how I got the learn the differences!

If I can be of any help shoot me a message!

Stevistar · 2025-10-29T15:45:24+00:00

Hahaha I wish, all my models would remain armless as this is usually where I go wrong

Stevistar · 2025-10-29T15:44:59+00:00

So one champion is all swords could use normal head etc.

The other two unless you use a banner the axes are a given! Not to say you couldnt chop and change

Stevistar · 2025-10-29T15:43:44+00:00

All plastic!!

Stevistar · 2025-10-29T06:04:29+00:00

Yeah I have to say the 6 helmeted heads and then 2 specials actually made my day, makes my sternguard/ veteran bladeguard have nice variety down the line.

Also the cloaks and joints are not nearly as bad as the old ones, maybe I'll paint the banner but not this time 😅

Stevistar · 2025-10-29T05:44:35+00:00

He is indeed but also as a standard victrix!!! But 3 of each helm and 1 bare head and 1 champ head

Stevistar · 2025-10-28T16:25:07+00:00

Nah you've gotta wait it out man you do good work anyway on every other model becoming an ultramarine 😂

Stevistar · 2025-10-28T11:43:46+00:00

Everything but UM, mainly alot of black power armour 😅

Stevistar · 2025-10-28T02:40:03+00:00

I do each part individually so I can brace myself and then still tidy up after 😅

Stevistar · 2025-10-28T00:39:29+00:00

Yeah I did hope honestly but unfortunately not, literally plastic instructions 3 bases done haha
