| So I have started working on all of my Grey Knights. Right now I just finished working on a Land Raider and a Five man Squad of termies. I will be updating this as I finish more squads. I will apologies in advance for the bad pictures and the even worse paint jobs lol. Here's the Land Raider: Here's the Squad of Termies with Captain Stern: I am still trying to finish up the clean up on Captain Stern so when that is finished I will give more detailed pictures of him. | |

| Looks like a good start man!
I would try using some sort of edge to make sure you get straighter lines on the colored bands running around the LR. Would look very striking. I think the angle that the white band is running looks good, but it's distracting that the red band does not run at the same angle.
The red and white also need more layers. If you painted straight over the silver, in the future you may want to paint other colors as layers and build up to the white/red as both of those paints (in most ranges anyway) are pretty thin.
Terminators are looking sweet, any ideas on how you are going to base them? | |

| I think the silver on the tank is great. Agree on more layers on the Red and white. It's brutal as I use those colors on my stuff as well. No secret but a lot of coats. |

| Looks great over all. IMHO I'd say just keep the tank all silver and jam it full of purity seals and the such. Either way the silver looks great. | |

| I had not realized the lines were not of the same angle so I will be fixing that on the tank. I will be adding a lot more coats to the tank to clean it up.
As for the termies I am not sure what to base them on. I have been thinking about it but still haven't come up with anything yet that I think will work well. | |

| My advice for bases is to go for contrast whatever you do. Nothing like a nicely done contrasting base to really make a model pop! | |

| I used scotch tape to paint the lines on my GK raider JT.
It works like a charm. | |

| I decided I will be picking up some of the bases sean was talking about. I think the wasteland series will look nice and give that good contrast I will be painting them similar colors as is shown on the website | |

| I was finally able to purchase them. I will get them later and start to paint them all up and get my guys on them. I have five right now that my Termies are going on.
*EDIT: I was able to fix the lines on the tank and was able to get a second coat of red on it. Will let you guys see when I get my tank back from Sean and his show and tell. | |
