Painting tips

Prime with grey or tan. For Astra Militarum proxies, use field drab, olive greens, sand camouflage, and incorporate regimental heraldry or purity seals. For Crusaders, lean into chainmail silver, white surcoats, red crosses, and sun-weathered armor. Add mud washes, rust effects, and worn banners for authentic battlefield wear.

Forge your unique armies — whether marching as Gothic Guard or medieval crusaders, these proxies bring dramatic character to your tabletop forces.
