Stalwart Space Marine





I have always been a fan Forgeworld books, and with IA 10 coming out I fell in love with the Carcharodons. Now that we have a basic idea of how they will look, thanks to Tyberos the Red, I want to start work on my marines while i wait for my order of Tyberos and the book to come in.

My basic question is, what color gray do we think they used? Did they use kind of the Space Wolf gray with bronze trim?

Here is what i am talking about, thanks for your help!

A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve is someone who, at one point in his/her life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

No, definitely not Space Wolf gray. SW gray is much too blue-tinted. If I had to guess, I'd go with probably Fortress gray. You're probably going to want a standard gray with a burnished gold trim.

Maybe something like 2:1 fortress (or codex grey) : SW grey?
IDK it looks like it has a hint of that SW blue-y grey in it to me.

The trim looks more like what you get when you spray badab black over shining gold.

The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.
