    Ultramarines, Imperial Fists, Salamanders or Blood Ravens...

    I have decided to paint my army out of the four in the title. However, I can't decide what one I like better, or what's easier to paint, so id thought i'd get some advice from the expert painters here a Wh40K forums.

    Why should I paint the Scheme? Thanks in advance =D

    Wazdakka Gutsmek killed a Titan by driving his bike through it's head. WHAT A LIBERTY >=D
    Boss Snikrot kills people sneakly and in their sleep. WHAT A LIBERTY >=D
    The shokk attack gun is capable of placing rabid squigs in people's bodies. WTF @_@

    I think its nce to go for quite a unique chapter:

    - Ultramarines are extremely common and GW's favourite
    - There are quite a few salamanders armies around atm

    That leaves imperial fists and blood ravens. I would go for blood ravens. They are less common and have a really nice colour scheme imo

    Yeh, Ultramarines are everywhere. Imperial fists are a bit bright IMO, and Salamanders are common. That leaves Blood Ravens, and their sexy scheme

    I would only ever go with Imperial Fists, if I could manage to make the yellow a LOT darker. unfortunately, that's about as hard as making a primary colour out of gold paint, seen as it goes this crappy brown colour if you put anything in it...

    Blood ravens are good, make sure you do them right

    enjoy (I Apologise for the bad pictures and bad models )

    I actually regret going Ultras, i Considered a bunch Including Blood Ravens. Then I went Smurfs because i wussed out and wanted lots of pictures of people to copy me being a newbie and all. I really wanna change to raven guard or Iron hands now.

    I Whole Heartedly Support The Blood Ravens Choice as i have yet to meet somebody who has them.

    I agree with the Blood Ravens ideas, you don't see them too often and they do have good colors for painting.

    I have a blood raven army !

    If you paint tthem well they are really awesome !

    just remember, you will need:
    -a lot of infantry
    -not a lot of tanks (if you really want vehicles, go drop pods)
    -a copy of dawn of war®
    -trust in psykers
    -to have killed your (very irritating) neighbours for heresy. (there's something suspicious about that perfectly trimmed hedge........)
