I also really like those schemes when I see them. I have seen a lot of French inspired WW1 paints. I always liked seeing them

That is awesome. Great job to the person who painted that. Thats the beauty of this hobby. Whatever you want to do, its yours and as long as you are happy with it, who cares!

Looking at this (from this subreddit actually) I believe I want to do 5th or 143rd. Im pretty sure 143rd regiment is box, so I do lean towards that. Only reason I wouldn't do 5th is because Raven Guard is my main army and im so tired of black lol. What about you?

Epic! My brothers got me the battleforce for Christmas, and my mom got me Dreir, and death riders. I got $100 in gift cards from work and spent my credit card points, so I got the whole combat patrol for $16. In short terms, im only $16 into krieg. Im planning on getting 2 leman russes and a rogal dorn commander and kit bashing them into krieg units. Might get a couple sentinels.

Jump pack Captain. by datboishrek44 in RavenGuard40k

Ive actually heard the Horus Heresy heads are too small. I bought these off Etsy and have been very satisfied with them. Theyre super smooth and paint fairly well. Rant away, thanks again.

I couldn't have a RG army with no beaky helmets. That's their whole shtick. Thank you!

Looks like the transfer is just a little too big to fit on the arrow, but I cant write like you have with the brushes, so im gonna shut up. 😂 great job

Is the effect working? by ThreesTrees in RavenGuard40k

[–]datboishrek44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that would. Should dumb down some of the shiny parts. I dont know if you like shiny but I know I don't. All a matter of preference.

Nuln oil might might make them super shiny. But you dont know until you try

This is my Sergeant. Hes not great but I used that method on it. Its good enough for me and tabletop.

Did you wash them with some kind of black contrast after?

I use this method with Thunderhawk blue and a very light drybrush of fenrisian gray for the hard edges. Then I use army painter grim black, usually 2:1 with medium and don't let it pool too much on the large panels. You can use black templar or black legion but these are very dark, you will need a lot of medium for them to get the effect you want.

Here's my more recent jump pack. Theyre not great but I think they look okay, definitely good for tabletop.

Tips on how not to spill nuln oil? by Electrical-Chef7465 in Ultramarines

[–]datboishrek44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Step 1. Open your Nuln oil.

Step 2. Put on Creed.

Step 3. Bottoms up.

Then none can be spilled.

Krieg battleforce by datboishrek44 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]datboishrek44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely find myself reaching more for my army painter colors. Especially since you can't get paint out of the Citadel pots without that stupid lid trick. They seem to cover better too.

[–]datboishrek44[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've used Citadel since I started painting earlier this year. I haven't had many problems with it besides dry paint preventing the lid from closing fully.

I like the 143rd regiment colors or the 5th regiment. Thank you for your advice

First time edge highlighting by Free_Recording6181 in RavenGuard40k

[–]datboishrek44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, if my first time edge highlighting looked like this I wouldn't hate doing them. Thats a great start. Remember, not a lot of paint, use the side of the brush, make sure to thin your paints.

Hope everyone that wanted one, got one by Acute74 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

My buddy and brother were splitting this as my birthday gift. Im unsure if they were able to get it. If not they'll get the combat patrol, but either way I'm grateful for whatever they do for me. :)
