Space Crusade Reboot, part 8: the Chaos Space Marines

This post is part of a series where I log all the progress I make on rebooting Space Crusade with modern miniatures.

Painting the Chaos Space Marines wasn’t easy. Those Space Crusade models are quite fuzzy actually, it’s difficult in many places to read the miniature: is that the end of the armor, or the begining of the hand?

I also took some time to decide which color scheme to use. I wanted something dark and contrasting enough with the Space Marines squad.

I finally ended up using a scheme very close to the Night Lords squad.

 

 

It’s a bit dark, but I’m happy with the result so far. It was quite a pain to paint though, not the funniest moment of the Space Crusade reboot session! I still have two to paint to make the squad complete.
