Woodland, Nato 3-color, tri-color, or whatever else you call it, this iconic camouflage from the 80s and 90s looks great on the Astra Militarum Sentinel. The true challenge, though, will be painting all those magnetized bits... After this, I think more Imperial Guard vehicles need the NATO treatment.

I really liked how you painted the plasma guns! All the little lights and highlights look so good! Also I went to the effort to pause on your wall of text, very cute x)

you can fix the shine from the wash with a matte varnish spray. The shine itself is usually separation in the pot, might need to shake it up more.

Nice video, it's good that you showed your faults and of course also how you'd improve on them! Much more relatable than a perfect paint job in one go, at least to me :)

Thank you! Maybe one day I'll be capable of one of those prestige paint jobs, but I think it's important for people to see how I progress and understand they can as well. Mistakes are how we learn, and I intend to keep including them.

@@TableTopAckley I'll join you on journey so I can paint better plasma coils. I've painted quite a few of them already, but I'm still not 100% satisfied with mine.

The model looks great! I like the Army Painter Army Green for the base color as it looks lighter than the NATO Green from other paint companies. Thanks for sharing this.

Very nice video! I'm doing something similar with my Catachan Sentinels. I will follow your progress, and hope to see more camo :D

From first hand experience I can tell you sand indeed did “sneak” onto the vehicles…

Really like this video. I personally would have skipped magnetizing the cockpit as I can’t think of a time the body would need to come off the legs. But to each their own on that. 😊

Glad you enjoyed it. The cockpit is definitely not something I recommend, I just go all out for the laughs.

In my experience I just shake the corax white a bunch, it just clumps up really fast.

@TableTopAckley Жыл бұрын

I still have the paint pot but no amount of shaking has been able to unclump it. I've been meaning to try a vortex mixer but I haven't gotten around to buying one yet.
