    The poor old White Scars were put out of reach for me by GWs old Tip-Ex-like white paint. Despite what the guides might have said, there is no way that the models were base-coated with the Skull White of the time.

      Even today, handpainting white with some proper shading is tricky. The GW painting guides of all eras tend to leave out a lot when it comes to tutorials that are supposed to mimic the boxart.
