Angels of Stealth
Giving myself a kick up the arse!
Without realising, August was the last time I picked up a hobby knife or paint brush, despite buying models, paints and accessories in abundance since. Now having some extra spare time, things have to change.
I’ve been drawn to all new Astartes stuff, and after forking out for the Indomitus box, a Vanguard Start Collecting box and a Librarian in Phobos armour, I’m eager to get started. For a while I’ve had my heart set on a Raven Guard army, but not so keen on painting the black armour, so I settled for Knights of the Raven. So without delay I’ve dug out a spare Intercessor and knocked up a test paint job which I think has turned out quite well.
I didn’t want the armour to be too shiny (they’re meant to be space ninjas after all) so I put Basilicanum Grey over a Leadbelcher primer with a Stormhost Silver highlight, they might look a bit dull, but that’s what I was looking for.
I’m going to tackle something with a cloak next, as I’ve got my favourite WW2 colour scheme to try, if it works all will be revealed in the next entry.
