Jumping Into Kill Team - Hive Storm
Tempestus Aquilon
I decided to paint the Tempestus Aquilon first, adopting essentially the box art as, after experimenting with se3verl other schemes, it appealed to me most. I got inspiration from the WH Paint app, modified to my taste. Here is a reference of the paints used:
Fatigues: Incubus Darkness (GW) Wash: Coelia Greenshade )GW) Highlights: Kabalite Green (GW) > Sybarite Green (GW)
Armor: Caliban Green (GW) Highlight: Straken Green (GW)
Armor Decoration: Runelord Brass(GW) Highlight: Stormhost Silver (GW)
Boots: Rhinox Hide(GW) Wash: Agrax Heartshade (GW)
Straps: Doombull Brown (GW) Wash: Agrax Eartshade Hightight: Tuskgor Furr (GW)
Dagger/Dagger Sheath/Gloves: Black Highlight: Grey
Grenades: Textured grenade: Militarum Green (GW)
Smooth grenade: Basilicarum Grey with yellow/red band
The Tempestus Aquilons were quite fun to paint and full of a myriad of details so characteristic of GW models. I chose not to add unit identification as I could not come up with a decent symbol/marking and may do so in the future.
