shaded, I normally just use black and brown washes, but for black templars I like to mix in a flesh wash since it has a similar warm tone to the classic Blanche art

started the basing, going with martian ironcrust because I like the red-orange part it brings to the mostly black models, helps that is also kinda matches the blanche art too
and the rest of the basing, just drybrushing orange to highlight and shading with strong/flesh wash, which was also done to the bottom of the legs to help the model fit the base
they're simple, versatile and easy to convert since there's an abundance of parts. I don't like all of them, but I'm a sucker for a good old sci-fi space knight, which they sometimes lean into, especially black templars, they're not my favourite, but I like going back and making a few occassionally
I dislike Black Templars in particular.
In part, because I like knights in space. Space marines took over the design space where something more interesting could flourish.
Yeah I definitely wish there were more types of space knight models, I'm always hoping for more like secutarii, imperial knight troops and updated inquisition crusaders, and also kitbashing my own. I do think space marines get way too much attention, but I'll still occasionally pick up ones I like
edge highlighted the armour with some grey, never feels like a lot of work, and it's satisfying to do, but I sometimes have trouble finding the balance of too much/too bright vs not enough to be that noticeable

(I don't like them, so understandably curious)
