Tips
Hints for this army
1
The armure black of Dark Angels must be mate — Avoid the vernis bright on the armure hands
2
The marquages white indiquent that the porteur a subi a blessure mortelle à the place d'a autre — The segments green évoquent the forêts of Caliban
3
Aucun légionnaire porte exactly the even combinaison of symboles : vary the marquages d'a miniature à the autre
4
For the chipping on the white : apply White Scar, then peignez Baneblade Brown à the interior of éclats suffisamment larges
