Been wanting to start a Carcharodons Space Marine Army but since they're a rare chapter I can't find a singular way to paint them. Thoughts? Also where would I find a transfer sheet for the chapter?

bump
if forge world doesnt have transfers you are probably shit out of luck. Go to a gw store and ask for a learn to paint mini. Test on it. Rinse and repeat at other gw stores until you run out of gw stores within a reasonable distance or you can paint them how you want.
I checked forge world there's none there so fuck. But that's a good idea thanks.

Space Sharks aren't Codex complaint. There might not be one standardized way to paint them even in-universe. Paint them however you want, anon.
Literally like you would paint Iron Warriois. Just without the stripes and gold.

Aren't you the pedant for caring what he calls them?
transfers all look crap if not done properly which is annoying.
if you have money look into 3d printed parts

used these guys for lamenters shoulderpads, quality wise they are indistinguishable or even better than gw plastic sculpts
Do we have any of their stories in the mega? I can't find shit although I may just be blind.

I would recommend doing the following: Dark Grey/Black shoulder pads, light grey body, white helmets/trim, silver emblems

you are the pedantic one for trying to make something cheesy sound all serious and cool normie sci-fi generic.

>getting buttmad
Accusing someone of being pedantic without giving an actual context of why only makes you look retarded.
>carcharodons
all these small fry, let me guess. You also pretended to like cool shit and ignored your old friends to try & fit with the cool kids? cause deep within you you where embarrassed for what you trully are and therefore didnt love yourselve enough.

I don't think you know what that word means.

Getting some metals into the mix looks like hot shit.

They look nothing like that, why do people paint them all weird like this? This is what they look like, it's right there in FW:
They always have pure black shoulders, unless there is decorative bronze trim on it. They always have black markings on their hip plates or knees, never white. They can have a black or bronze chest emblem.
>>51712038
I only prefer Carcharodons because of their color scheme having more black and white on it so they can make two-tone vehicles and look more like the Minotaurs. Space Sharks classic is just pure grey with a red stripe which is less exotic and looks a lot more similar to GW chapters like Ultramarines, who are just pure blue which can be boring.
I did paint my Imperial Space Marine in Space Shark colors with goblin green base, and I stole the Space Shark red stripe to give to certain units like veteran sergeants and Red Brethren. I'm going to try to work in the old Kirby looking shark emblem onto a banner or vehicle or something, maybe paint some shark teeth on some tanks or beakies.
this nigga made me some custom ones. pricey but dope as fuck
