Well, here are some photos of some finished Sternguard for a Salamanders force. The black helmets were meant to designate Veteran status (rather like the white helmets on codex chapters).








Any and all commentary is welcome.

Very nice work, the placement of the flames really make the model stand out.

Great job brother.

They look cool

Nicely done, I like them.

Solid work! I really like the tone of green that you achieved on these models. It seems a bit lighter than the standard Salamander's green (at least to my eyes) but it really works well--especially with the flames.

The green on these guys is done with some P3 paints. The starting green (Ordic Olive) is a little lighter and more neutral than the standard Salamanders green, and I highlighted by mixing it with a bone color.

I was pleased with how the color worked compositionally.
