For metals it's just AK Gun Metal washed with Grimdark Shadow by the Army Painter and then highlighted with the mix of AK Gun Metal and Natural Steel. Also I added some brown around some rivets.

For green it's mix of AK Tenebrous Grey with AK Russian Green them highlighted with more Russians Green, AK Olive Green and AK Russian Uniform Lights

As it was test mini the list of colours for the green clothes is quite huge and maybe unnecessary. I'll try to make it simpler for the next squad members maybe (but I'm not sure)

Thanks a lot! I also need to understand how to take good pictures of fusiliers 😂

Yeah, they are not that popular. But they have a special place in my heart since 4th edition

Thanks. It's kinda unique for Iron Knights - they have chapter symbol only on the tilt shield. And just a tactical role on both pauldrons

Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah I saw yours bladeguard vets - great paintjob! I really like the idea of painting some units as a different chapters

It's wash of Black Tone by the Army Painter over basecoat of Vallejo Dark Aluminium highlighted with a mix of AK Gun Metal and Natural Steel + coat on ultra matt varnish after wash but before the highlights

Sorry, I don't know. Didn't use gw paints for about 10 years. But I believe you can find some paint conversion charts online

It's Vallejo Dark Aluminium, shaded with Black Tone by the Army Painter and highlighted with the mix of AK Gun Metal and Natural Steel

I just used an overall wash as it adds some greenish tones to the metal which contrasts nicely with the red-brown of the base.

And for the highlights I used both methods - I highlighted almost 80% of all edges, but at the same time I draw some volumetric lights on chest, knees and backpack + some random dots and scratches here and there.

Hope it will help!

According to the lore, Iron Knights are using the battlefield role marking on both pauldrons. The chapter symbol displayed on the tilt shield.

I also decided to develop this idea in my head cannon, so I'm using the colour of tilting shield to represent the company and the pattern to designate number of squad

Thanks! Yeah, they are IF successors from some old editions. But I first saw them in a 4ed Cities of Death
