I prime mine black while on the sprue, then apply the main color, then a
wash.
Then paint boltguns boltgun metal. I've named my Chapter "the Hellhounds"
and
they are reddish brown, so my main color is Snakebite leather, then a
Chestnut Wash
and Red Wash.

Yes unfortunately. 3 boxes=4 even bike squads, or E40k boxed set + 1 box =
4 bike squads.
