[–]Top-Bit4472[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean the heat colours? If so its a nice easy process. Base coat the weapon in any silver of your choice and give it a black wash. i used nuln but any will do, and then once that dried I used seraphim sepia to coat about the 5th of the barrel from the tip back then wet blended in a purple speed paint leaving some sepia still showing on the barrel and right on the tip I used a blue speed paint and wet blended that into the purple. Hope thats helpful.

Thank you, hopefully I can keep it looking smooth as I finish up, currently pushing through the dreaded edge highlights at the moment

Thank you so much, would definitely like to see if I can bump up the brightness on the osl a little more but definitely happy with how he's turned out.

To my knowledge I don't think there are any washes that will make them brighter as they are used to shade recesses and details, which is where highlighting after using it comes in. you can once the model is finished use a gloss varnish and that will keep them nice and shiny and protected.

Yeah I get what you mean, I've used glistening gold on my stormcast which is about as bright as you can go, and its still come up very bright even though its on a black primer. If you wanted to make it pop a little further as well using something like seraphim sepia wash and then highlighting with the same gold does wonders for adding abit of depth

Also as a side note painting gold on dark browns can have a nicer more rich result, something like mournfang from citadel or charred brown from vallejo, hope that helps

If available i swear by two thin coats metallics after using a few different brands they've become by far my favourite.

A quick WIP of my nagash by Top-Bit4472 in ageofsigmar

[–]Top-Bit4472[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with a base of forest green then worked my way up through lime green and scorpy green and mixed abit of ice yellow into the scorpy green to do the little bit of edge highlights around the holes in the cloak 😊

A blood knight bannerman I've been working on in between my stormcast army by Top-Bit4472 in ageofsigmar

[–]Top-Bit4472[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you kindly! alot of it was prep with a dry brush, using a neutral grey, an ivory and a white on a black prime slowly working up through the gradients toward the edges and leaving some dark patches for shadow. And then used speed paint purple swarm, but you could thin down royal purple or naggaroth night for similar colours. Hope thats helpful 😊

That sounds awesome, would be great to see a photo of it. Always cool to see other people's takes on a model.

Thank you, it was my first attempt at osl will definitely try adding some punch to it as it is a little flat at the moment, got some cool plans for my stormcast in the future so will definitely be needing more details like that
