I am going to start a Salamander army and this is going to be my first time painting and assembling for the table top. I was wondering if you guys could give me a detailed guide on how to paint Salamanders from Dreadnoughts, Predator tanks,and also Vulkan He'Stan, as well as the basic line infantry. Could you also include pictures and or videos please if you find any or have any. Thank you.

I hear that painting is half the fun of getting a new army. Could you please post some pics after your army is painted.

Chapter house is awesome the only place where I can get my exorcists pads to. Sucks tht I have got to paid 20 dollars for shipping tho

their armour was coloured black and upon it was drawn chilling images of bones and fire, and on their helm they bore skulls... Like the bones of men in the torment of purgatory they were, and yet not a sound did they make...

Get the venerable dreadnought its great for salamanders, gives you a bit more to work with if your going with a flame color scheme which is what I did. I also heard that you got Vulkan He' Stan, and I would recommend using a very fine brush when painting the flames on his cloak or cape.

I don't think I'm ready for a venerable dreadnought. I'm going to start out with a regular one first.
