So the foot things the Cadians are wearing are specifically gaiters. Gaiters go over the shoe/boot *and* have the pants leg tucked in. Spats just go over the shoe and are tucked under the pants leg. Puttees are a strip wrapped around like a gaiter.

The term you would be looking for would be greaves. Normally, leather or armoured fronts. Surrounding the lower leg. Garters is just cloth over top of the boots. But as they as buttoned, the look like greaves to me.

You bring up a good point while layering. You're gonna be painting a lot of these guys if you're diving into the Guard. So you shouldn't spend tons of time highlighting them. You'll never get a finished army on the table if you go nuts on every single dude. Luckily Cadians look great with a simple and fast scheme. Would love to see you take on Guard tanks in the future, maybe when the Dorn releases. Camo patterns always looked like something interesting to approach to me.

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

I will indeed be doing tanks including the dorn tank. I think it will be more of a solid green with some weathering like the sentinel I did that’s my plan anyway. Hope you still enjoy it.

@chappy4756 Жыл бұрын

@@MediocreHobbies don't believe so. the puttees were really just cloth wraps. IIRC American Paras in WW2 were one of the first to do away with them and were allowed to blouse their fatigues over the boot tops. Those Cadian model gaiters look almost like a combo gaiter/shin guard to me, so maybe a little protection too.

Hi I’m painting the command squad with these colors and technique. I had a couple of questions , they usually have a bit more detail like the box dude and medic, how would you deal with that or just keep it simple. Second I see you use a normal brush what do you do to be so accurate? Just did the aggaros dune layer and I couldn’t avoid missing and getting some on the armor :( advice?

@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын

A small layer brush is king for being carful. It’s got a big enough well to hold some contrast but a fine enough point not to go everywhere. I have a video on how to paint the flag because that’s the most complicated part of the command squad. Everything else I would indeed keep simple. Metallics and normal colours. Hope that helped.
