New painter attempts to not ruin the Indomitus Space Marines
Intercessor Sergeant completed
So I finished my SGT I went with Contrast Guilliman Flesh over a Seer Grey Primer (thanks for the tip Crazyredcoat) I had a hard time getting enough of the contrast to actually stay put on the head and not just pool in the armor. The hair is just base Abbadon black nothing special. The plasma pistol is easily my least favorite part of the model I just could not get the right shade of blue (this was attempt number 3) I just can’t get the right mix of Tallassar Blue and the contrast medium to get that plasma light blue.
The chest shield I do think came out pretty alright I looked in my Dark Angels Codex to see what the companies looked like and I ended up going with the 3rd company mostly because a red strip seem pretty doable. Still a bit more work than I had expected though had to paint on some Seer Grey before going back over with the Contrast Blood Angels Red but i’m still very into how that particular red pops against the armor.

A tip for the plasma coils on plasma weapons. Paint them a pale grey (something like Celestra Grey) and then shade them with a blue shade (Drakenhof Nightshade works well). After that, highlight the coils with Ulthuan Grey or a flat white then use the Guilliman Blue glaze paint. You can apply as many layers as you want (I usually do 2 or 3) to build up the blue to a point you’re happy with.
