Video ‘How to paint a Black Templars Primaris Lieutenant

Posted on by

Black Templar, Black Templars, Primaris Lieutenant, Warhammer 40k, Conquest, 9th In this video I’ll be showing how I paint up a Black Templar Primaris Lieutenant. The miniature has been undercoated with Halfords Matt Black primer, and was originally a Dark Angels Primaris Lieutenant but I’ve trimmed off most of the iconography (what do you mean? All Primaris have pauldrons that shape…).

He was painted up for my brother’s army, so the chest eagle is golden rather than bone coloured (if you want bone coloured, use Rakarth Flesh (base), Seraphim Sepia (shade), Rakarth Flesh (colour), Rakarth Flesh and Ushabti Bone mix to highlight, then add some white to that mix and add an extreme highlight.
