Today's somewhat limited progress. Progress has been hampered slightly as I've been having some problems with my sinuses which has made painting trickier than usual...
Thanks Big Steve :). After some discussion with a friend last night I've opted not to include any blue despite the recommendation of the Codex Astartes for it. While the Minotaurs are ostensibly a 'codex' chapter, I don't see them as adhering to it to the letter... which is my fluffier way of saying that I don't think blue, bronze, red and white would work too well together. Heresy, perhaps? but as one of Kraetyr's sons I have the ear of the High Lords of Terra and so freer reign in how I interpret Guilliman's words...
Certainly a fair point. As much as the purist in me hates it, it's the right way to go. I did a Libby for my own Minotaurs force in the blue with a single bronze pad which didn't looks too bad but going the other way would look a bit odd.
Lovely job so far, the tone of bronze is superb. Are you thinking of getting the traditional Librarian blue in somewhere?
