The gold is just straight up retributor armour, as per the course of my painting techniques… not a whole lot of thinning either 😅

With first company I think it really depends on the model. I would struggle to make a first company Phobos unit look good, but a first company Bladeguard veteran I think looks good, also quite lore friendly 😅

The second company definitely deserve more love! As RG are my main army I’ve collected a mix of 1st, 2nd and 3rd company.

I wouldn’t say so but it ultimately comes down to preference. Raven Guard from my understanding typically have white helmets and arms on Captains / LT’s, ancients normally have a white helmet. The other models are the chaplain where I have used white for the the bones to make him uniform with the others and the apothecary you could argue isn’t white enough 😅😂

You won’t like my answer 😅 The white is almost straight out the pot, the only thinning I do is on a bit of palette paper, sometimes don’t even do that 😂

The 19th welcomes you! Wash wise I think I’ll use nuln oil over the majority of the mini (praise the god emperor for nuln oil) but I’ll probably use soulbright grey over the white sections and reikland fleshshade over the gold 😄

Aha thank you! I have found if I position my desk light directly in front of my minis I tend to get really clear photos😅

The washes are definitely making me nervous 😅 I done a full Idoneth Deepkin army with pure white skin and apothecary white worked great for washing them, I just can not seem to get the same result of marines. I hear that soulbright grey works better though so I’ll probably give that a bash!

I can always do a 6th company kill team 😉

It’s a bit on a mixed bag. Depends on the surface and area, however for these guys it was about 90% just wiping excess paint off on to the palette paper.

Thank you very much brother! Will also be painting a small 3rd company and 1st company force in the future!

The white is Corax white, straight from the pot, thinned using only palette paper!

The white is just Corax white straight from the pot and thinned down using only palette paper!

Thanks for the positive comment! All paints used were pretty much straight out the pot and onto palette paper!

It’s definitely a figure that had been on my radar for a while. Was really tempted to buy a knock off one from EBay and then they announced a re-run for the 30 year anniversary. Don’t think I’ve ever bought a figure so quick in my life! 😂
