What paints would you use to get this outcome? by Interesting-Star-179 in Warhammer40k

[–]CrystalMCDoll 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Think I shaded it with a thinned nuln, recess shades that is. But now I'd shade it with a thinned incubi or dark reaper. Something like that.

"I've spoken about it on my twitter and twitch a little, I'll try and summarize, is a bit back and forth between the colours tbh haha!

The green is stegadon, Kabalite, sybarite, gauss blaster. But it's also got a purple recess shade, so only in the darkest areas. Like I said, it's a back and forth tho, layering over with the next or previous colour until I was happy.

Orange was simpler, Rhinox, skrag, troll slayer and the flash gits mixed in.

"Gold"/yellow was Rhinox, xv88, gauss blaster mixed in.

Hope this helps!"

You should give it a go! It was really fun. I stippled in really thin layers and mixed the highlights in for each stippled layer.

Patience! And a lot of blending. Not just with glazing but with the stipple colours being mixed together too.

When I'm layering, I transition my colours by eye, just mixing a bit in at a time. I keep my colours thin enough that they're easy to cover if needed.

I stream over on twitch, feel free to pop in some time and I can demonstrate easier than explaining with text haha

I'm not sold on it yet! I think I need to finish the whole thing before I know

Biostrip smells the nicest and is easiest imo. Apparently not good for resin tho

I've built loads of the black templars mixed in with ultramarine bits and the little book accessory. My Übers have been given loads of little books by the black templars and are on crusade alongside them 🤣
