How to paint Space Marines: Assault Intercessors

1. Step 1: Prime the miniatures
   Start by priming the Assault Intercessor miniatures with a suitable primer(all primer sprays here). Use Chaos Black or Corax White for a dark or light base, respectively.
2. Step 2: Basecoat the armor
   Apply a basecoat to the armor plates using a suitable color. For example, use your Macragge Blue for a classic Space Marine look. Ensure even coverage across all the armor surfaces.
3. Step 3: Paint the details
   Next, focus on the smaller details of the miniatures. Use Abaddon Black for the belts, bolter casings, and other black areas. Use Balthasar Gold for any metallic elements like weapons or accessories. If you want a better metallic option wich is not included in the set give Retributor Armour a try.
4. Step 4: Highlight the armor
   To add depth and highlights to the armor, carefully apply a lighter shade of the base color to the raised edges. For example, edge highlight the Macragge Blue with Calgar Blue or Fenrisian Grey.
5. Step 5: Add chapter-specific details
   Based on your chosen Space Marine chapter, add the appropriate chapter symbols, squad markings, and iconography using the respective colors. For example, if painting Blood Angels, use Mephiston Red for their iconic symbols, but in our case we are going for an Ultramarines look, so you can use the Corax White that’s included for this. White Scar is an option too.
6. Step 6: Apply wash for shading
   Use Agrax Earthshade to add shading and depth to the recessed areas of the miniatures. Apply it carefully to avoid pooling or excessive darkness.
7. Step 7: Paint the accessories and weapons
   Pay attention to the accessories and weapons of the Assault Intercessors. Use appropriate colors to paint the grips, scopes, barrels, and other details. For example, use Leadbelcher for the gunmetal parts.
8. Step 8: Finish with details and basing
   Complete the miniatures by adding final touches. Paint the eyes if you want a more detalied look with a contrasting color, such as White Scar. After this you can paint the base with Astrogranite
9. Step 9: Optional: Varnish for protection
   If desired, apply a clear coat of varnish, like Citadel Munitorum Varnish, to protect the painted miniatures from wear and tear.
