Paint it just like it says. Any variations of split is welcome. I've attached a few examples for general ideas but it is not limited to this. You can also achieve this look with a more intense Object Source Lighting (OSL) . Pictures borrowed from our Guide Google

I hope I didn't forget anyone but here we go

Thank you. I'll use this as an excuse to paint a few of my Marines Errant.
(very similar to the nova marine above but halved rather than quartered)
keen turtle
Ooo I'm excited to see that.
I need to pick a model to do this with. Might try from my printed stash
keen turtle
ooo smart

One I did about 3 months ago. I want to re-do the banner.
median dagger
One of my extra trolls or something idk
I did a troll once centre split pink and lime green. I was at my brother in laws and we decided to paint part of his stash at random. (It's a one legged, one eyed troll).
rough otter
That seems awesome!!
median dagger
I don't remember what brand it was - trying to find it.

Of course this happens after I've finished these... ah who am I kidding I wouldn't have finished in time anyway
keen turtle
It's seriously cool. And you should of suggested it !!

it was fun to paint though so anyone on the fence about trying an OSL half and half please do give it a go

I like to be part of this paint-along, but I never did any paint-along, I don't know whether I should request to the moderator, or sending a picture for the proof before working on, etc. Is there any guideline for paint-along in general? or could somebody explain to me briefly? Thanks.

Primed a couple of marines with this in mind.

Planning on this good old bretonnian for split the mid
Too bad they don't make it anymore, bretonnia was the most fun faction to paint imho, you can just get really creative
median dagger
Just use hundred year wars historicals. Foundry if you want whfb official figures.

For real?
median dagger
@lethal bay The Foundry 100 years war range is primarily ex citadel miniatures for WHFB 3rd edition bretonnians. The War of the roses range are the original figures used for 3rd edition empire. All these figures were made by Michael and Alan Perry.
lethal bay
Yo this made my week
Guess mine are first serie i think they are similar but still different
First or second, they are leftover that my father didn't make when making his bretonnia army back in the day
median dagger
3rd edition is something like 1987.
median dagger
5th or 6th then. Plastic horses?
lethal bay
Yeah most of them are plastic
median dagger
I think the original figures had plastic horses - foundry are all metal though.
But you can also get other ranges in the same style. Perry brothers do plastic ranges.
lethal bay
Yeah i saw, thanks for the heads up on looking abount hundred year war even in general
median dagger
Won't be any good for 'gw sanctioned tournaments' of course.
lethal bay
I paint them only for fun not intendi g of playing with them
And even if i want, i got my father full bretonnia and full imperial
They were great minis
Still don't know why they shut fantasy down
But i can understand that 40k surclassed fantasy for different reason
median dagger
There is intention of bringing back some version of whfb next year.

Made a start on these last night. Didn't realise I forgot to post here as well as advent event.
Rough at the moment.
p.s. I'm using the original design for Marines Errant - red shooting star rather than flaming meteor with the insignia on the white side, not the blue.

I’m thinking something like this for my Battlemaster

Yall going to be proud of me. Here's me blocking out some checkers.

Last week, I was out for a vacation. Came back home, worked on the armor and feathered wing. So far so good. As I'm working on oil, I need it cured before working on the the eyes and sword.

I really have to work on the army. Started in 1992 and currently have 3 figures...
Oh my! That's a long outstanding army time 😅
median dagger
I remember the specific events when I decided on the particular army - and am able to date it based on those events. It has just never been a high priority. Probably because each figure takes so long.
Even assuming I get a figure done per week it will take me 2 years to finish it.
But it would look fantastic.

Dang it would still be pretty cool. Although I wonder if you'd get a lot quicker hence a shorter time frame maybe? . I'm hoping I can manage my necrons ( I don't have a lot so shouldn't be impossible)
median dagger
I do have some time saving techniques. Two sheets of star decals for example.
