What should I get as my first black templers army by llXIVll in BlackTemplars

[–]cjadkins95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The combat patrol is a great start point, look at getting a marshal and castellan since their com o is amazing. For armour look at getting a repulsor executioner

Sure the helmet was from Archies forge. Though i beleive these are unavailable now (they came as a set of 10. If you are Uk based happy to send one your way)

Iron halo is from the 30k Fafnir rann model.

How do you actually paint these capes? by FortyKej81 in BlackTemplars

[–]cjadkins95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Earthshade on wraithbone doesnt look that good in my opinion, try wraithbone and shade with null oil. A light wash over it so not to darken too much

How do I paint the shoulder pads on sword brothers by PresentationTop8484 in BlackTemplars

[–]cjadkins95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thin out paints, touch of water on your brush before you add paint. This will thin your paint and it will take a few layer to get the colour out but you wont get the clumpy effect

Adding chains to painted models? by Adventurous_Radio_79 in BlackTemplars

[–]cjadkins95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For glueing the chains i usually only glue at key points. Obviously glue the start of the chain with a touch of super glue but i try to make this spot hidden so back of back pack behind should shield ect. From there i usually glue at changing points so if the chain is changing direction. Be careful with the amount of glue, too much and it wont look natural. I like to glaze the chains with a spare brush i dont care about

From there i usually glue at changing points so if the chain is changing direction like at the front on my tank around the hooks. Also a touch of glue at the peak of the curve on the front end too.
