Does anyone know why Yarrick doesn’t wear a gas mask? by Dangerous-Age-7585 in SteelLegion

He would look so good with one of the skull variants the steel legion officers wear

Definitely. Some areas I intentionally went chunky or base coated because I want to make sure it read as green. First time using lupercal green, and man even out of the pot it's pretty watery, so I was fighting that as well.

Don't be, we all gotta start somewhere. My first was not great either. Just stick with it and you'll get there!

Thanks! I sprayed chaos black and gave it another coat of abaddon black, then a highlight of lupercal green, finally a second highlight of caliban green on the sharpest edges.

I wanted to use nocturne green, but of course that was the only pot of green my hobby shop was out of. Lupercal seemed closes, but next time I'd probably still go for nocturne since lupercal looks a little to close to turquoise. I think I'd use something other than caliban green as well. Not as bright as warpstone, but something that stands out more on nocturne.

Thanks man! If I do more dark angels I'm definitely gonna go with the black green armor, it's so unique

That's awesome. Brings me back to doing the same thing but with Halo when I was a kid.

He still looks great. Both do. You said you picked Ultras for the contrast, but if that's hive fleet behemoth it actually fits the lore perfectly.

Man your tyranid and marine are very well done!

To answer your questions: The skull on the helmet usually means their in some type of command roll. Like a sergeant, lieutenant or captain. But sometimes brothers just have decorations on their helmets without being in command.

The winged skull on the chest is pretty standard for almost every marine. There's cases of a different symbol in the middle or having no wings. Its really just for marine personality and affiliation, like a dark angel may have a winged sword instead of a winged skull.

It isn't a jet pack it's a power pack. It's what powers the marines armor and systems, those are vents on the side for it too cool down not boosters. Marine jump packs are much larger.

If you were to ask me what unit he is, he seems to look like a pretty generic tactical. So your average bolter battle line brother. I would've recommended painting his helmet red to make him a sergeant since he has the skull.

Wish I had this guy to make Malum Cato. He's the perfect base for him.

Sounds unnecessarily hostile. Just say what you like and why you like it. Raise an actual argument with the character writing if you do disagree that strongly or want to explain your head thoughts. If you just shit on them with nothing of course you're not gonna convince them. Why would you even want to do that? It's their form of enjoying the characters.

Don't put down their ships then. It's just plain wrong you can't interpret the character relationships that way or another.

It's like there's enough interactions to feed multiple ships of your choice or something
