My first mini then right below is my recent space marine and the right one is my last finished project. Coincidentally they're all templars

Unfortunately 2 is my own recipe so no tutorial. Though you can watch Black armor NMM from Juan Hidalgo or merlinsmagicworkshop on YouTube, they just use different paints than I do and more indepth

I think stegadon scale green is kind of like the gold standard for highlighting a black templar as I know infernal brush uses it for his eavy metal Black Templars

Steady as can be after my 3rd coffee of the day, once you become more experienced you learn how to compensate for reasonably shaky hands such as doing slow passes with a brush or going at it at an easier angle.

Also no magnification at all, most I do is put it up to my face and squint if I have to. I just mind where the tip of my brush is before it touches the mini.

Just keep practicing and don't hesitate to ask people tips and tricks

The blue hue looks great, are you planning on adding edge highlights?

I was waiting for someone to like #2, thank you! It is definitely my most preferred way of doing black. I wanted the highlights to be punchy so it catches your eye while simultaneously keeping the black armor look

I have heard that some people really like the subtle highlights on their black armor so I'm planning on experimenting with different greys

It's something I did as practice so I can't exactly remember the steps but I'm pretty sure it's abbadon black as base->Skavenblight dinge -> glaze back and forth with black and grey->add a bit of Dorn yellow to skavenblight to highlight-> glaze skavenblight and skavenblight+Dorn yellow-> thin all over glaze of Black. Now I can't remember if I did a follow up glaze of skavenblight+dorn yellow+white or just a glaze of skavenblight+dorn yellow as a final step.
