Ultimately I chose Space Wolves Gray to tie it back to that army. The Brotherhood is a Counts-As, so making the connection a bit more obvious doesn't hurt. Further, it's neutral enough that other accent colors won't blow the composition entirely. In these three foot models, I've done a Tzeentch, Khorne, and Slaanesh (subtle) treatment; if the rest of the army has similar - and it will - I don't want the colors to riot. So, does it work? Is there a better color? |
I love the Team! I think the color looks great!

GO with three grinders. Stay big or go home.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the look of neutral grey space wolves rather than blue-grey variety.
I like the gray. As you say, this is counts as. Any opponent facing you with half a brain will be appreciative of a reminder as to what counts as what.
ReplyDeleteAwesome start for your Killzone team, these guys look great. It's nice to see that old Tzeentch fellow but I think my favorite from this group is the Terminator. That Possessed arm you used on him looks really good. Cool stuff, Brent!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys!
ReplyDeleteEvil Homer, while I agree with you, you have to remember this is about comp, too. I'm trying to consider changes that will increase my comp score but still allow me to compete.

Nice models...if only your writing was as good. BTW nice poster of me :) I'll have to get out the photoshop...
ReplyDeleteI have been liking 2 grinders, tongue/phlem - expensive but they can do a lot of things you need to get done.
ReplyDeleteLove the "Thunderhoof Calvary"! I'm currently working on starting a blog and my next 40K project is something similar. To illustrate my idea would it be OK to use your photo to illustrate my idea? (obviously with credits to you listed)
ReplyDeleteI'm new to the 40k blog thing and I'm not so sure about the etiquette of such things.
Thanks, I'm really looking forward to seeing the rest of the army!
Richie - feel free to use whatever you want! Good luck with your blog.
ReplyDeleteSend me some links when you get something up and I'll check it out. :)
Brent: Just posted something with your photo and a link you your page:

Thanks again and oh two questions:
1. Did you raise the CSM torso up from the mounted legs because I took a look and pre-assembly the legs look way out of proportion to the torso.
2. LOVE the armor! If you don't mind I'm curious about the color recipe.
