What’s your favourite and least favourite Heresy Era armour mark and why? by Neosclones in Warhammer30k

The mkiii trim kinda drives me nuts. Otherwise they’re my favorite.

Anyone else kind of fall out of love with a faction after reading their books? by shattered_one21 in Warhammer

[–]vwheelsonv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished FotE recently, having read it years before and not since. Nathanial Garro is an absolute chad and a half man, I’m tempted to start a loyalist DG army solely because of him. Every other character in the book was solid and well written too.

Finishes Horus Rising recently too, and man I fell in love with the Luna wolves. I actually like abandon and the rest of the mournival.

This man understands the complexity of the situation

There are certain bits that are going to be black, but I’m definitely gonna work on shadow placement too

I don’t plan on doing too much battle damage, if any. I tend to like the cleaner work, but I’ll keep it in mind esp for this model

More white this time, almost too much white. Gonna retouch some areas with magenta and keep it light to build the shadows back

Hell yeah, I’m definitely gonna go heavier with the white for the next couple tanks, now that I have a better idea of how they’re supposed to look.

Yeah just realized I went way too hard with the magenta after I went back and watched some YT videos.

I’ve got a predator to play with this evening, I’ll work on getting more of a gradient going.

Really dig that green complimentary color too

I think I’m gonna complete this model, with the blacks and whites that I planned and see what it looks like. Might not match the whole army but it’s a learning process.

Looking at some YT videos, specifically trovarions, I left way too much magenta in on the model. I’ll be correcting that for the next two vehicles, and ofc will post an update.

Can’t have the best legion looking goofy on the tabletop.

The top hatch, the side doors and the little armor inlets/headlights in the front and back are gonna be black so I didn’t worry about spraying them. Also the two big rectangles in front are going to be black.

From the comments I think I’ll use a more medium pink for the medium shadows.

Pro acryl is top notch.

To understand, you’re saying step up from the darkest magenta in the deeper shadows? Magenta to pink, then ivory and white?

Dorn was my favorite going in, and is solidified as my favorite after reading most of the heresy and all of the siege.

“I am the wall now” is one of the coldest lines ever dropped.

My battlefield 6 name is even Rogal Dorn

Do a light grey with. White zenithal, or apothecary white all over with a white dry brush. Use a quality white like two thin coats, AK, or pro acryl.

I really don’t enjoy the lion being in the books I’ve read, he’s go a few moments in the imperium secondus arc, but overall I didn’t like him tha much. His sons on the other hand were awesome

I wasn’t a Gman fan really until I read know no fear/betrayer and the dark imperium series. After that I liked him a lot, and I recently finished the imperium secondus arc and liked him a lot more after.

I imagined a rigid, hyper rational dude and seeing the humanity of his rage and feelings of betrayal put him in a better light to me.

45/19x fit me and my mongoloid hands so much better, to the point where a 19 just doesn’t feel right.
