Codex: Fighting Tigers of Veda (pg 14) Pages 1 <> 2 <> 3 <> 4 <> 5 <> 6 <> 7 <> 8 <> 9 <> 10 <> 11 <> 12 <> 13 <> 14 <> 15 <> 16 <> 17 <> 18 <> 19 How to Paint Fighting Tiger Characters
With four color schemes already, Fighting Tiger characters don’t need to stand out: they need to fit in! Characters wear colors appropriate to their jatis and will look like regular troopers (that’s right, Fighting Tiger Chaplains do not wear all black—heresy!*). *Incidentally, I've found that Tigers of Varuna (Fighting Tiger Chaplains) look really good with the skull part of their helmet painted white and the rest of the helmet painted Chaos Black or Bestial Brown as appropriate--no stripes on the helmet! How do you pick out Fighting Tiger characters on the table? Well, they still have all those sculpted details: chest eagles, belt buckles, skull emblems, etc.; detail these as you would any other Space Marine character. Not to mention that just about every character figure has some kind of identifying insignia sculpted onto one of their shoulder plates: paint the plate in Fiery Orange, Bubonic Brown or Skull white as appropriate, DO NOT paint stripes onto the plate, and detail the insignia with Boltgun Metal or Dwarf Bronze.
Put as much
time into painting a character as you would a squad, because characters
are more noticeable and can really improve the overall look of your army
if done well; conversely, they can make your army look bad if they're not
painted well.
