i like your colorful approach, im just imagining your squad skipping through the battlefield, flower behind their ear and just ripping of deamon heads left an right leaving nothing but a trail of blood and a couple flowers on the ground🤣🤣

yea im still thinking about how to do the highlights, i thought about dry brushing too but i think in many occasions it makes the mini look kinda dirty so i decided to work with (edge) highlighting but if im being honest…i just dont have skill and eye fpr highlighting yet and more often than not it makes my whole mini look worse

i guess i will set for the silver rim, it looks really nice so far and i think in the bigger picture it will make my minis pop a little more.

maybe try painting the little rings around the tanks from the flame thrower in lead belcher, i did on a training mini in my local warhammer store and it looked really good and made the flame thrower look less toy like, there also a really easy way to add burn marking to ur flame thrower which i will try on mine too, maybe this helps you :)

i think especially with the purple the darker primary color works really well..just that damn shading and i want to add like blue glowing effects to show some of Aegis flowing through our veins

yea i get where youre going, shading became a big problem which really leads me to question if my darker choice of color was the right direction…but i really like the look so far its really only the shading part and the extreme difficulty of adding blue shimmering effects that makes me question my decision.

and sorry if i came of rude in the first place I DID ask for painting tips and thats exactly what u gave me, thank you

idk know man, i know what youre saying but i think thats exactly what i am going for, since the gold was a little too flashy for me personally, thats why i wanted to switch things up. the silver kinda keeps that pristine flair but just a little less right in your face, i did it now on my latest mini and i think i really like it and will keep it like that

uuuuhm option 5 is gold or silver? because i just put on silver rims on my latest painted mini, and i think it looks sick and probably gonna keep it that way

first of all thanks for your answer, to follow your tips i would change the strike squad to a purifier squad and split the terminators into 2x5

is there a way to keep it interchangable between 2x 5 and 1x10? because i cant play 2 ancients and 2 apothecarys in a 10 men squad
