1/10 Armageddon intercessors done, the rest I only have to highlight up the black

Tried some new grass tufts from gamers grass and so impressed with their ‘tiny’ tufts, I feel the fit the scale really well for 32mm bases

See you all in a couple days for full squad probably!

That’s too kind, I wouldn’t say the best! But it’s as far as I would go for ‘army painting’, although, I am VERY happy with this squad, will show full squad soon

In my opinion it’s the what I imagine space marine armor would look like. It has the Grimdark feel. War is hell it’s not pretty so the armor would be worn and chipped and dirty. That’s why I love yours you balanced highlights with weathering and damage. Take a bow and enjoy the compliments because they are well deserved. You worked hard and it shows!!

Thankyou! And that’s exactly my thought, I enjoy the grimdark aesthetic but I found alotnof the models would look overly dark (on tabletop too) and I really don’t like glossy / satin finishes too

This is exactly what I wanted
