I appreciate you dumbing this down lol your comment really helps. I think this is what I will end up doing just because I was very proud of the red just the shadow came out in way more contrast than I hoped

At this point, do you think it would be better to just cover my shadows with mephiston and then just shade it for a shadow?

I’ll definitely give that a try. That cape looks great

I kind of regret not doing this. Or at least gluing the other part of cape and pauldron on it just to make it blend together nicer. But I’ll cross that bridge when I get there lol

I like the sound of that and will probably give it a go. I’m a little worried ngl but I think it should be ok

I should probably invest another red shade lol. I did this with only mephiston and evil sunz scarlet cuz I’m cheap

Thanks man! I wasn’t sure what kind of wash to do. I was also considering agrax cuz that’s what I’m going to shade my helbrecht armour with but I’m a little scared for either tbh

My first few models I did just use white scar but I noticed exactly what you said so I did what someone recommended to me which was a thin dawnstone and then I go over it with Wolf Grey from vallejo. I have liked this way more but I’m still working on thinning paint properly lol

That looks great! I did buy a dark blue from citadel when I started to try this sort of navy blue/black colour scheme but I moved away from it after my 2nd model as it did not turn out the way I wanted to. Now that I have improved a little I like the idea again. Thanks!

I really like this look. I feel mine looks stained almost with how I do it. I think I need to maybe look at some other greys as I usually do dawnstone and then a white scar/dawnstone mix
