It’s part 2 of the Solar Auxilia tutorial! This time we’re looking at the infantry and again I need to stress how tiny these guys are-you don’t need to spend much time on them at all! Contrast paints and a wash are all you really need once you stand back from them at a table! I also included my basing tutorial for those who might not have watched the Imperial First Legions Imperialis tutorial I did! Glad you’re enjoying these speed painting Legion Imperialis videos and let me know what you’re like to see soon!

Nice thank you. That's what I needed. Love your LI stuff! ❤
Loving these Legion Imperialis videos. Can't wait to start my Blood Angels and Death Guard.
Так, мне нужно сходить за лупой.)
Just a few more days then I get to start my traitor guard tank division 🙂
Since I’m doing Ultramarines, I’ll be doing Ultramar Auxilia with my SA
Love these mate, the rating grime works a treat on those rifles!
What is the superglue you are using? I cant find any with the long tube end.
YAYYYY was waiting for that!!!! My force will come in a few days <3
Amazing work
Love the bases but I'm curious as to why you went with a tan color when the armor is yellow?
Very nice, I'm quite taken with the yellow & silver look of these I might well have to nab that for my Auxilia. Definitely think some blue on those axes, maybe some bronze/copper on the flamers, would be a good next step to make those stand out. You're absolutely right that the poses mean they do seem to blend in with the generic lasgun mooks, so some colour variation seems essential.
Nice video! Good look on 40k!
What is that glue u use to attach them to the bases I can't find any with that spout u have on it
Really enjoying these videos! And thanks for repeating the Nuln Oil you use, as someone who buys shades by the fistful, I still have a fair number of the original Nuln Oil around that I use for other projects, so the reminder is most welcome!
Love it, a nice simple result, easy to mass produce. Can’t wait to see how you approach the tanks!
I’m going with imperial fists and loving your vids!
I think the infantry are fine for what the are, because the real stars are the vehicles and knights/titans.
They look awesome, nice work. I might prime with zandri dust spray and use creed camo contrast on the armour to make them look like 40K Cadians since I’m so lost on what solar aux should look like lol
The infantry do seem to be the big sticking point from what I've seen, so looking forward to your in depth thoughts. Planning on picking up a box of the solar aux to see for myself, already have a bunch of 3d printed epic stuff for marines, interested to see how well they'll scale.
The models look great and I like the simple painting technique.Thanks for making these tutorials.
Amazing, I really was having trouble trying to figure out how to paint the Solar Auxilia, now i have a good plan!
When you going to get to thousand Sons? would love to see how you do them up!
Epic job pal!
Best wishes from London 🌴☀️
I think they look great but as I'll be doing in smaller quantities over a longer period due to bufget/ release schedule, I plan to go a bit more in depth. Also because its a nuce way for me to relax 😃
I think your spot on saying they are basically counters, people always shy away from labouring on termagaunts because you remove them in handfuls, well GW have made several references to the fact titans can lay waste to entire battalions each turn, so I think personally, that the attrition rate of infantry in “epic” is gonna make gaunts look like terminators lol.
Loving these guides – they're my 'go-to' for when my pre-order haul drops!!
Yeah, they definitely need something to help differentiate the unit types. I haven't really seen a good picture of these troops – could you perhaps paint a shoulder pad in a different colour?
Always enjoy a good bit of rimming in a video.
I’m on a budget of buying a box a month, so going to take the time to do them detailed. Otherwise, I’ll just be twiddling my thumbs between purchases. Doubt I’ll break the game by doing this like you’re suggesting
I hope this helps translate to Solar Auxilia being brought to HH 2.0 in plastic. Kitbashing is fun but sometimes official looking minis are just a little bit better
Great video as always Andy
