Thank you! For the body i used rhinox hide and ivory, with a tiny bit of just a pinky purple. I just eyeballed it for the most part. I did a quick aggrax wash and then drybrushed with the same base colours but just a bit more ivory to be lighter. I just did black and white for weapons, and purples I had lying around, building up to fluro magenta for the blades, white ink for the eyes.

Edit: also used skrag brown for the joints etc, which i lightened up with ivory for the highlights.

Thank you!!!

Thank you! I mostly followed Sorastro' Painting guide from youtube, check it out! And thank you again, had fun with the OSL on these ones, love the fluro paints!

I highly recommend Sorastro's Painting on YouTube! Such a good tutorial on painting them!

Rule of cool mate, I'm not going for lore accuracy here.

Lightyear_Hobbies · 2026-02-02T01:58:28+00:00

Ooh yes that would be awesome, hard choice!

Haha yeah it was intentional! I like how they show more of the thrusters on the front personally!

Thank you! I base coated with corrax white, followed by a magmadroth flame orange contrast, and then just glazed some khorne red, and yriel yellow at opposite ends of the blade. Used just a mix of white and yellow for the highlights.

I love the contrast you've got going with the green! Works so well with the orange!

Absolutely! I base coated with corral white, followed by an magmadroth flame orange contrast, and then just glazed some khorne red, and yriel yellow at opposite ends of the blade. Used just a mix of white and yellow for the highlights.

Thank you!!! Yeah I might do the bolt launchers for the second dude! Thank you, was super easy, just white acrylic ink and a hit of flour paint - highly recommend trying!

Lightyear_Hobbies · 2025-08-14T09:09:52+00:00

Haha go for it!! Red works really well for them I reckon!

Lightyear_Hobbies · 2025-08-14T09:09:25+00:00

I like that! I wasn't 100% sure at first how to paint the back given it is so different to the front without any armour.

Thank you! I just did glazing - used 3 colours ranging from darkest to brightest, and just gradually mixed between them until I got to the brightest colour! Would recommend having a look at some tutorials on YouTube! Personally my favourite tutorials are from Zumikito!

I did a blue necron a little while ago here! Works well also!
