Sword Brother Adelard Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I thought we were worrying about leaving their filthy blood on our blessed weaponry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 In that case you probably shouldn't paint it red or it might be harder to clean properly. :D Â That being said, the Blood Angels Deathcompany did it first anyway. :P Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciler Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 In that case you probably shouldn't paint it red or it might be harder to clean properly. That being said, the Blood Angels Deathcompany did it first anyway. No, I did In fairness though, red weapon casings are just an inheritance of the 1990s painting style.

Kyliadan Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Saw this on FB, illustrating Sigismund waiting for Abbadon. It came with an excerpt from Black Legion. Can't remember the name of the artist unfortunately. Marshal Reinhard, vossyvo, Sete and 7 others 10 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mattias Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I think that's a crop of a larger image from the old Codex: Black Templars, isn't it? My memory isn't what it used to be :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link2edition Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I notice in most of this art even the sword brethren have white shoulder pads. I wonder why that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Probably the limitations of black and white? It would be hard to show a black background and a red cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Hang on, if we're going by the official paint sceheme, as far as I know, Marshals are always depicted with white shoulders? Castellans too in general (though they were kind of missing from most official photos for quite a while....lorewise, castellans are described as being drawn from the swordbrethren, but rarely if ever have they had SB colours) Â Swordbrethren (And swordbrethren terminators) are in general the only models that have the black pauldrons with red crosses and rims. Â Which brings me back to monochrome artwork. If the pauldron is white, we have to generally assume its a crusader, castellan or marshal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimVandy85 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Even the codex lists our colors as black with a white field for command, battleline, and fire support. Veterans are listed as red with a black field. I think that's the proper terminology, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Slackmaster Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I've always referred to Page 15 of Codex Armageddon (which you can find online with some light Google-fu) when deciding how to do up my minis. It suggests a high level of customisation is totally acceptable, and even shows a pauldron with red trim on a black field for an Initiates. Even the BT codex, IIRC, suggests a high level of personalisation is very much acceptable. I've even used shoulder trim colours to tell squads apart. (60 marines on the board can get tricky to tell apart, amirite?) Link2edition 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Carpenter Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It was from way back i think codex armagheddon. Only sword brothers and command squad i yhink had black field with white crosses. Everyone else had white field and black crosses. There was no such folly as assault squad designation ect. If you felt like zerg rushing the enemah today you'd strap a jump pack on your back and joined your best friends templar at the ass squad ect.
