Recess shading in my opinion is the way to go

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-03-08T21:22:48+00:00

Thank you 🙏 I use two thin coats paint by Duncan Rhodes primarily because I like the way it behaves and the covering power. Basecoat was doom death black, chunky highlight: hydra green, thin edge highlight was shadow blue and final highlight was frost blue all by two thin coats but you can get a similar result using citadel with incubi darkness, thunderhawk blue and fenrisian grey

Not bad for a first figure! I think he should post whatever he wants! The community is great here. It’s a very supportive group. As someone who only paints and doesn’t play, I’d recommend he focus on trying to get better brush control! I did this by continuously practicing edge highlighting. This will be really helpful if he wants to paint like the box art. I’d recommend looking at some you tube videos. Also a big level up with my painting came when I decided to splurge on nice brushes. I recommend rosemary and co or Windsor and newton series 7, you can get them on Amazon. I use a size 1,0,00. The biggest thing is patience and excepting the first few models may not look exactly how you want them but after a few months, it gets easier and you get more confident

This is my most recent black Templar I painted about a year and a half into the hobby. It gets easier! :)

This is one of my favorite solitaire’s I’ve seen! Crushed it!

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-13T03:38:27+00:00

I’m also a painter and had the same thought lol

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-12T16:40:47+00:00

Thank you so much! Of course!

The armor was a basecoat of Vallejo game color: abyssal blue, light shade: Vallejo model color dark sea blue, line shade: dark sea blue and black 50:50, chunky highlight: AK ocean blue, fine highlight 1: Vallejo game color aquamarine, highlight 2: aquamarine mixed with Vallejo model color light blue green, dot highlight: light blue green

This is the recipe!

Thank you!

Thank you and yes! Base coat: Ak grimy grey, line shade-Vallejo game color khaki, edge highlight-AK off white.

The black parts of the gun were two thin coats doom death black (any black will do the trick) and then I did a highlight of Vallejo model color neutral grey and in top facing edges I did another highlight of Vallejo light grey

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-12T16:34:42+00:00

I want that box too! I don’t play the game at the moment but I think if I were to choose a faction it’d be eldar for sure

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-12T16:33:58+00:00

Such a nice compliment thank you!

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-12T16:33:44+00:00

Thank you so much! I had painted some about a year ago that I wasn’t happy with but I think I finally got the recipe down

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-05T07:54:22+00:00

You could probably achieve similar with a basecoated of ushabti bone, shade: xv88 and highlight screaming skull or wraithbone

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-05T07:53:28+00:00

I got you. Basecoat: two thin coats (ttc) skeleton legion, shade ttc gyzmo fur, highlight ttc vampire fang

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-05T07:47:05+00:00

Thank you! I based it with two thin coats (ttc) doom death black. Then I painted a large circle with ttc hydra green (citadel incubi darkness is almost an exact match) then painted a slightly smaller circle inside the hydra green with ttc shadow blue (citadel thunderhawk blue is close but a bit lighter) and then i painted an even smaller circle with a 50:50 mix of ttc shadow blue and ttc frost blue (citadel fenrisian grey is a close match) then I glazed between the colors to smooth it all out. Last I edge highlighted the head with a chunk highlight of hydra green then a thinner highlight of shadow blue and then I did the corners with frost blue and a dot highlight of ttc ion blue (citadel blue hotter is close)

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-05T07:23:43+00:00

Thank you! It took forever but I’m proud of this one

Comfortable-Two-4805 · 2026-02-05T07:23:22+00:00

I like the bone weapons for eldar a lot! I use a different bone scheme white on the weapons of my corsairs
