I used the guard legs. They were the easiest to fit together. If I had the skills the warden legs could have looked very cool though.

@@TallManMinis oh ok thank you very much I also wanted to know if you use some nippers to cut the dome of custodian guard legs or a hobby knife?

@@jesseprado5563 I used both actually. The snips were just to snip the very top of the rounded dome off and flatten it out. Otherwise its too slippy, even for a scalpel / hobby blade and I nearly sliced my thumb open on the first model! Once i made a dent in that, I used a scalpel to slice it away very thinly and slowly. Best advice I can give is to take it slow, take small amounts off, like thin slices of bread lol and keep it even and flat. My first model i trimmed down quite far but on later models, I left enough around the waist to double as a belt. About the same thickness as normal space marines.. I felt it helped the proportions better! Good luck and send me a pic when you are done!

No not really, they are neodymium magnets so very strong for their size.

Thank you! I do plan to, but just trying to clear up some real life commitments first. I'm almost there!

Thank you! Oh it totally is! I only magnetised the weapon pod on my impulsor, but I'm sure you could also modify the gladiator in such away that you could convert it between the two!

I think show it in the video. It helps by protecting the layer of paint below. If you give it an hour to cure you can rub off the mistake with a cotton bud or wet brush. Applying another layer of varnish after that also helps to to unify the texture and colour of any paint you have used to correct a mistake.

Yeah but if I don't then I will lose it or drop it. I have all the dexterity of a drunk breeze block sometimes lol

Good question. I actually don't know. I've not had the time to paint or play due to some legal issues with my home that is eating up all my free time :( Should be over soon though, so I will read up on this!

Do you mean the ones that come down vertically on either side? I don't think so, but you may need a very fine drill bit. Either way though, you could always refill the holes with a little putty if you didn't like the look of it :)

Found old art work showing them flying and smoke is coming from the piping (old blood angels codex)

@@codemaster6521 Nice! I love old 40K art. Especially the RT and 3rd Edition days

🤣I'm glad you like it! I do a better explanation in one of my other videos, with some vanguard vets! - th-cam.com/video/jzwPa-cE4Ss/w-d-xo.html

I just paint & highlight them the same as rest of the armour. Just pinwash and then the same highlight colours I use in my first upload :) Generally I go for green lenses as it contrasts really well with red.

Hey, sorry for the late reply. Yeah they are just normal Assault Intercessors really with a few extras added on, like power gloves :)

Thank you!

Thank you! :)

I like the bone aquila too, but i think it works best with actual DC models who have more skull motifs. I decided to keep these guys a bit more plain looking. I have already made some primaris conversions with original parts and jet packs, Check out my Vanguard Vets video :) I have some DC converted primaris guys with jet packs too, just finding it hard to get the time to paint as work is so busy :(

hank you so much! :) no those are from the Blood Angels Primaris Upgrade Sprue. It's an official GW product. You get two with the combat patrol box.

@@TallManMinis interesting, I didn't think they fit anything other then intercessors Thankyou, you seem quite experienced in air brushing, have you thought about doing a video on tips and techniques on that? looking forward to other BA painting videos 👍

@@Teza-b Thank you again :) I'd love to and do plan to at some point. Unfortunately I am just completely bogged down with work and real life family issues. I haven't been able to upload in months, Got lots of footage to edit but just cant find the time :(

@@TallManMinis keep grinding mate, you'll get there 👍

Thank you! This means so much :) Alas real life is preventing me from making more content as fast as I would like but I don't have any plans to stop the channel and will get more painting done asap!

I've not played since 2020 but I was on Odin, keep meaning to try out Endwalker but just not had the time :(

@@TallManMinis if you ever end up with the time i highly recommend it. it ends the ascian arc super well. The msq is up there with shadowbringers.

Hi, Thanks for checking my videos out :) Sorry for the late reply but I am currently ill with the flu. The metal colour I used here was Vallejo Dark Aluminum. but you can use any silver metallic colour like GW Lead Belcher or even Stormhost SIlver if you like a brighter look!

Hi, Sorry I was away for the Christmas break and only just got back! Look for Dynamic Prints Studio, they have lots of Death Company crosses and emblems!

Yeah it's not the most stable mini to build. If you are worried though, you could pin it alongside the plastic glue. Should make it a bit more rigid once it fuses

@@TallManMinis that's a good idea for future projects, thank you. Fortunately, balancing it between my tools had the desired effect and it bonded in the place it needed to be, but it was a very stressful waiting period to make sure it worked!

You're welcome! Glad I could help :D

I use a mix of brands. Rosemary & Co Series 33 Pointed Rounds 3/0 and Davinci Maestro Red SableSeries 35 2/0
