Hi folks! this is my first real thread on Heresy-Online, so I'll apologize ahead of time for any quality control issues.
My goal here is to post progress pictures of my army, and hopefully gain motivation and insight into how to improve my technique from the awesome community here.
This is a codex chapter, as the title to this thread suggests. I'm planning for them to be a successor chapter of the Ultramarines, as the similarities between their two paint schemes are readily apparent. I basecoated them with Chaos Black before painting the bulk of the armor Charadon Granite. The blue areas are Regal Blue with an Enchanted Blue highlight drybrushed on top. Finally, I've used Fortress Grey highlighted with Space Wolves Grey for the accent color.
Here is a sergeant with a couple ordinary marines. I'm not sure if I like how much red he ended up with. It makes him almost look like he's from a different chapter. I might change his helmet to Space Wolves Grey (the color of all my veterans' helmets). However, I am also considering doing the cloak in a more fitting color, Maybe blue. C&C welcome!
