Everyone loves Space Marines, but codex chapters can be a little bit limiting. In this episode of Paint Perspective, we discuss how you can create your own custom chapter of Space Marines, that are fast and easy to paint, look fantastic, and suit your own personal style.
James shows us his 'Exemplars of Siege' which is his own home-brew chapter, and shares the exact methods he used to create them, so you can too!
Also in this episode, we respond to our listeners comments about the confusing names from Vallejo, answer our question of the week about finding motivation to finish projects, and of course share our parting hobby hack!
