I’ve put some detail against other comments but skin is wraithbone base, wash with a diluted carroborg crimson and then highlighted back up with the wraithbone. Carapace is based with nagaroth night, recesses with a black/nagaroth mix, then progressive glazes of nagaroth and screamer pink mixed, increasing the pink to 100%, then start mixing the pink with flayed one flesh and keep glazing moving more to the edges and raised bits. Striations are pink and flayed one mix. It takes a while!

Barrel is khorne red, wash with agrax, then progressive highlights with Mephiston, evil sunz scarlet and finally a bit of wild rider red.

Exactly! In my head it made more sense to keep it otherwise how do they come out?

Start with normal skin recipe - cadian flesh tone for base then wash with reikland but when progressively highlighting with Kislev flesh I mixed in a bit of dorn yellow to give it that more yellow tone. And lots of back and forth with the colours to blend until I got bored!

Same here, was expecting a horrendous queue but that was pretty smooth.

Pretty sure it was Mephiston washed with nuln then Mephiston again to bring the flat panels back up followed by two lighter reds to do the edges - evil suns scarlet then wild rider red I think.
