CARCHARODON, I Choose you !

The first thing I needed to do is choose your Warhammer 40k army.
This part I found took a little time but was actually pretty fun.
I searched lots of different sources from websites and forums to people’s previous traditions to get an idea of colours I wanted to use and more importantly the army I wanted to create.
I had already decided I wanted to be using space marines as I am still fairly new to the game and there great all-rounder and in a way forgiving for a new player like myself.
Originally I was going to paint the Raven Guard because I was liking the cool black theme and looking at the specific rules for their HQ the close combat tactics but after a while the black theme just seemed a little too dark for me to be able to enjoy painting details.
After looking a little longer I finally settled on the Carcharodon AKA The Space Sharks. I chose these guys because there’s quite a lot of mystery behind them with very little back story but also the colour scheme. While the colours to some might seem a little boring but the grey black and gold combination was really striking to me, I’m not really into the idea of painting bright blue ultramarine or iron fists but really liked the natural feel to the Carcharodon.
I will be painting more in-depth step by step process of how I make and paint the models but for now I will just show you a picture or two of the things I already painted before starting this blog.
