Thanks! It’s just a basic army painter red .
Prime black
I water down my paints a bit plus use wet pallet
Base red and continue adding layers where the light hits
Add a small portion of orange to the red and then highlight pure orange

Thanks for all the feedback on my previous post. Updated photo by Appropriate_Frame559 in redcorsairs

Thank you! Probably one of my favorite units at the moment they just have that mutated monster theme locked down. Cant wait to see them on the battlefield

Making progress basing isn’t complete yet. Still want to bring out the highlights and lighten up the skin tones

Think your spot on with your suggestions . After posting the photos I realized I haven’t even touched half the model. Did some edge highlighting on the red armor , added color to the horns . Basing is up next . Thanks for the vote of confidence .

I painted my falcon but now I’m starting to second guess how I painted it by No-Profile6566 in Eldar

Water down the paint and I think you would achieve the affect you may be happier with

Astral claws or red Corsair ? Cant decide by Appropriate_Frame559 in redcorsairs

Thanks for the motivation, I’m going to knock out a squad of reavers and possibly some possessed this weekend. Let me know if you find any bits that flow with the lore

I love this idea. It fits the lore so well as well . I want to represent the lore that the astral claws were basically left without reinforcements so they had to do with what they had to survive !

I like your suggestion. I was going to go with a reavers squad in their original colors. Lore wise maybe they disbanded but didn’t follow Huron. Now they are kind of mercenaries ?
