For those stuck on ideas for how to break up the black armour on the new beakies. Some Dark Angels had bone coloured armour, I believe if a piece of armour got destroyed or as a sign of veteran status. You could easily make a unit leaders have a bit of bone armour. Use transfers whenever possible if you get a single Legion transfer sheet and spread out across squads. Add stippling weathering effects on the present edges like the knees for a spot of silver. Paint the "beak" silver, that should help draw the eye to the face. Paint the shoulder stuffs silver.
Almost there! I suspect mark 6 paint schemes might have things like quartered or checkered shoulder pad livery to break it up and further differentiate them from Raven Guard.
YES! For the Lion! For Caliban! Absolute ace work. Thanks for the scheme, this will be simple over the 80-100 infantry I have waiting in a bin. ~ ScorpionInkHP
Good call on the shoulder trim in the video. I am a bit concerned with the marines in the Horus box as I don’t like that shoulder. I want beaky boi’s but don’t know that I want to drop $300 usd on them.
I like how you paint the amour, I would like to see if you could paint a Mk VI Dark Angel with their heraldry included, also I did have the first codex brought out for them & on the cover their bolt gun s were gray? Keep up the good work. Bless you & your family
Hey Mediocre Hobbies - great video! Whenever you have a chance, I'd love to see your take on the modern Dark Angel Scheme as well. I quite like your methodology - it seems easy to scale for a whole army or "upgrade" for heroes and the like.
Really great tutorial thank you. In your opinion, if I only had a chaos black undercoat but didn't do the zenithal layer (don't have a leadbelcher spray), but did a leadbelcher coat then templar black, would I still get that black metallic look, but with less shadowing?
@@MediocreHobbies I ended up taking your advice and getting the leadbelcher spray! With the templar contrast, are you diluting it with water at all? My attempt has for some of the models wiped out the metallic sheen and almost left it quite matte. Also strangely enough my leadbelcher seems to be a much darker shade than yours in the video. Have you seen that before? Thanks for your advice!
I have a video on a black templars dreadnought down with contrast of you wanna check that out. But I will be doing more tanks of contrast soon to show people how it works.
@@MediocreHobbies how would you go about doing the vehicle/dread. Prime black, zenethil Lead Blelcher, then contrast Black Templar? Or would it be more of the stippling layering method you did with the SoH tank? EDIT: Bump
@@MediocreHobbies I have not yet but I just wanted to know if I do follow the Templar video can I apply it to MKIII armor or would it be better to just by a black Templar squad
@@sunnycaljon5319 it is actually a Concern I have with there no trim shoulder pads. But the rest of the model should have plenty of crisp detail to catch the brush. But I will test when they come in.
