20 Horus Heresy Solar Auxilia Trooper Colour Schemes and Painting Recipes All In One Place

Horus Heresy? Oh you mean the game and book series focusing upon Space Marines kicking seven shades of Athonian Camo out of each other? Yes. But there’s more to it than that. Other factions of humans and not quite humans were rolling around in the 31st millennium. Not least of which, by a long way, are the Solar Auxilia. And they now have new plastic models in the Horus Heresy tabletop game. Not only that, Games Workshop sent one of the Solar Auxilia Battle Group boxes my way (you can already see where this is going, right?). So what did I do? Yep. Twenty Solar Auxilia Troopers in twenty different colour scheme with their recipes and methods attached into easy to refer to cards for your viewing pleasure.

Dark Angels Inner Circle Companions and Deathwing Knights Alternative Contrast Colour Schemes and How to Paint Them

Say Ravenwing and it’s a whole tide of black armour and white detailing, generally on bikes or in Land Speeders. But this isn’t always the case. The Dark Angels successor chapters, often referred to as the Unforgiven, don’t tend to stray far from their parent chapter. They have Ravenwing and Deathwing portions of their own forces. Often, too, they’re slightly different to those of the First Legion. But what do they look like, and how does one paint them?
