Thought I might actually miss this week…but then I just had enough of school and didn’t look at it for a day or two… Either way, another mini is done. This time I went back to 40k and an army I haven’t added to since I paused my last project; Ultramarines! I call him Jedi Librarian, but that will probs change once I can be bothered to come up with a better one. Hopefully you can see why I call him that.

In this light it is actually a little difficult to see the diferences in the blues, but the main armour is done in Crimson Fist colours (the new standard for Librarian colours) with a few bits in Macragge colours.

The robe colours were something to help break up some of my charcters, particularly my Chaplain. The Chaplain wear white robes, so I went for 'Jedi' colours on this chap. I think it turned out pretty well, myself.

Originally I tried to paint the sword in the same way as my other power swords...but the details on the blade just got in the way of the gentle transitions so I decided as a Force Weapon this can look different and just dragged some Soulstone Blue over Stormhost Silver to make it look a little magical. I kind of wish GW stopped putting details on the actual blades...not very practical...

And the Lloyd Shot. The base isn't finished because I either used up or lost my pot of basing paint to match with my other Ultras, so until I get that no basing I'm afraid.
