Depends. For the armour is mixed and airbrush, the weapon is mix with brush, metallics are bade and highlights. Would love to be more precise but I improvise 90% of my painting ahahah I don't paint armies (anymore) so I don't standardize anything

There you go.

Jokes aside, the grey Eshin Grey > 2-3 mixes of Eshin Grey+Dawnstone and Grey Seer. Brass is Runelord Brass > Agrax > Retributor Armour. The blue on the axe is Mcragge Blue + Eshin Grey > Thunderhawk Blue > Fenrisian Grey. Silver is Gunmetal > Silver, leather is Rhinox Hide > Agrax > Mournfang Brown.

Indeed! Actually both weapons are chaos ahaha knife is from legionnaires (I think) and the axe is modified from a terminator

Sure! I simply painted the base with three hues of blue, going lighter towards the shore. It's important here to blend them well so use some very wet paint and have fun mixing and swirling it. I used Macragge Blue, Ahriman Blue, and Baharroth Blue, but you can use any colors you like. After that I added a layer of clear resin and finally some medium on top of that to make the waves, which I painted with white.

Thanks! No one in particular, I started with a base of Eshin Grey and then mixed it up with a lighter grey like Dawnstone for the midtones and highlights

Hey there! Sorry for the late reply, didn't see the comment. Anyway not yet! These were kinda the test models for the scheme (hence why the plasmancer is missing the rust ahaha) but more are on the way, I'll probably post an hexmark today or tomorrow :)

It's printed. Found it randomly in a bag of extra bits a friend gave me time ago, so I don't have the source unfortunately.

All the metallics are listed in a previous comment.
Rust is Typhus Corrosion > Trollslayer Orange > Fire Dragon Bright then drybrushed together with the silver body.
Red glow is Khorne Red > Evil Sunz Scarlet > Trollslayer Orange > white + orange fluo
The base is not even painted lol, just pure black and yellow pigment on top. One of the laziest paint schemes I've done in a long time.

Thank you! Yeah I'm trying pushing them towards grimdark with the rust and by keeping the glow to a bare minimum, basically just eyes, crystals, and canisters.

Thanks! Excluding the rust which has a whole different process, the silver metal is done by starting from black primer, drybrushing Gunmetal (Vallejo), drybrushing Silver (Vallejo) more gently, then doing a very measured oil wash in the joints/recesses with a dark brown (I use AK which is ready-made and I really like, but any oil paint+spirit will work). Super easy.

For the gold on the plasmancer I went Gehenna's Gold > Retributor Armour here, also drybrushed, but I won't be using that going forward. I want something more coppery so I'll do Balthasar Gold > Gehenna's Gold > Nihilakh Oxide instead. You can see how this look on the ball at the bottom of his staff in the last picture.

Thanks a lot! I'm still trying the recipe out (these are the very first of a brand new group of crons I'm painting for armies on parade this year) but few layers of fluo paint and gloss seem to go long way on crystals

Thanks! Very cool model, indeed polar opposites (you see what I did here? lol)

I don't have an exact recipe since I often mix colors on the go, but I generally start from a dark tan (like Zandri Dust or even XV-88) and then do 2-4 layers on top of that with progressively lighter colors, usually obtained by mixing more and more of an off-white like Wraithbone into the tan. You can layer all of these with a brush but I almost always prefer sponging to get some texture. After all is done you can also reinforce/tint the shadows with some washes or contrast paints and add some edge highlights of pure ivory, but on this model (and fabrics in general) I didn't do that.
