For World Eaters, I would have swapped the Beakie helmets for MK7 helmets. Official art from the Horus Herasy books shows World Eaters wearing the iconic angry vox grills.

@RexTMichaelson 2 жыл бұрын

Pretty sure the official art has them in mk v Heresy armor. Mk v has the famous grill, but mk vii came about after the heresy. World Eaters are most often depicted in mk ii, mkiii, mkiv, and especially in mk v.

For Raven Guard, I think the only changes that need to be made are to the Praetors. Capes and trinkets don't exactly lend themselves to stealth. Otherwise, the large abundance of beakies makes me happy as a Son of Corax.

Interesting tidbit, some of the sprues are marked as "Land Raider" and some are marked with "Spartan". Combine that with the fact you can build the sponson weapons as dual rather than quad lascannons and it's all but guaranteed that we will be getting a Proteus at some point.

@senecatheyounger6922 Жыл бұрын

This is a cool video and a cool army, but there's an easier, less-risky way to deal with the studded shoulderpads. Assemble them with your usual plastic glue, then paint the shoulderpad seam with a brush varnish before you apply any other paint, including primer. (Don't use an airbrush, that generally doesn't get the correct seal.) This is a good technique to deal with any similar small gap, once you get the hang of it. It works on any type of model, not just plastic, and doesn't risk permanent damage the way "sprue goo" can.

Another great video Pete, and a lovely job you've done. However like many I just can't buy World Eaters in MkVI. Raven Guard, Alpha Legion, White Scars perhaps, but not Angron's boys. I know GW have done a little light retconning with regards to the general availability of Mark VI for the traitor legions, but the idea of Kharn & Co running around in armour that was more stealth orientated than any mark before it gives me the giggles. It's a testament to your skill that you made them look this good to me even as the screaming voices in my head howled "HERESY!!!" It'll be interesting to see if anyone tries putting the Iron Warriors in MkVI, even though it's pretty well established that Perturabo thought that Corvus armour was sh*t . I eagerly await your next video.
