Always glad to see people paying any attention to the iron hands, genuinely no one seems to care about them except when it comes to the meta in tournaments. Everyone says “white scars, salamanders, raven guard are under rated” no, people actually talk about those marines, hardly anyone brings up the iron hands unless it’s in regards to the heresy or they’re just covering the same exact lore without deviation, I bet no one here knows that the iron hands practice heretical techno-necromancy due to how bad it got for them after Istvan .

Thank you! I definitely need to try the proper mixture one day. As for the straps I think pure green stuff wasn't the right move there as you can see some portions where the line imprints are a bit rounded. I think a green stuff+Milliput combo and a sharper knife would've gotten me cleaner edges. Or waiting till it was harder/using a harder epoxy then carving the lines in when it was cured, maybe filing them in with a triangle file even. It's a minor issues but it's worth passing on the knowledge to whoever happens to read this who it helps

@blackwolf671 7 ай бұрын
I think that was Orichalcum actually. (which may have just been bronze) I might be wrong, but I think in ancient Greek Adamant is sort of an archaic word for Diamond. Latin sort of dropped the 'A' at the beginning and the 'T' at the end and used 'diamas', then french put the 't' back on the end for their 'diamant' and by the time it made it into English we just capped both sides with a D for Diamond. I mean, we even spell it with an O but still pronounce it with the 'a'. History and linguistic drift is a bitch like that sometimes. ...Somewhere along the way the old word got confused for lodestone and then brought back by WWII and marvel comics. For real, Let me know if im wrong though, always up to learn new history facts.

@The Lich's Laboratory On your spear conversion, you mention your concerns for your spiky bitz. I've noticed something fun that may help with heavily converted weapons! Whenever I'm cutting weapon shafts and blades I look for places Purity Seals could go. They help hide my sins and poorly carved plastic can be covered by sprue-goo. The plastic glue bond of the purity seal crossing the cut components has worked well for plastic kits. The next level of this is strips of metal, or greenstuff as purity seals in cases where resin, metal or random bitz are used in kitbashing. You may be surprised how effective a cut soda can wrinkles up and layered with liquid greenstuff can be painted up as a purity seal!

I’m looking at a lot of conversion and painting videos since I’m still a total noob, and I really appreciate the time and depth you brought into this video.

Agreed, glad I saw that vid of yours, I was just shocked you said they were a BA successor chapter and I immediately looked them up and I love their colors for their ranks, either gold helmets, or black, or black and gold, it's just so nice compared to the constant red, black, and white I use for my BA. @@TheLichsLaboratory

Enjoyable vid, I like the conversions. Oh something that might help, when you mentioned Marine Juice! A while ago I started making a medium like that of Contrast Medium but, far cheaper in the long run. Its an 80% distilled water to 20% Satin Glazing Liquid (I got the golden one), in my local area most of the hobby shops closed down while the initial buy might be slightly more expensive you'll be able to make tons of the stuff. Hopefully that proves useful to anyone doing the hobby on a budget.

Until you got to the Ashen Claws part, I thought that was a model from Tortuga. Excellent work! As for Tortuga Bays, they do still send out models, even with the war. Theyre the size of primaris, while their terminators are even bigger, and this is for every mark of armor. I highly recommend their stuff
