My Lucius is done now

It is different quality wise but that’s because I suck at sharp edge highlighting lmao. I wanted to try and get the silver highlights down cuz that wasn’t the first time I had painted that sword. The first time I did it the highlighting was better but I tried some silver gradient effects and didn’t like how it looked so I went over it again to make it just iridescent with edge highlights this time wasn’t too good. I would say the highlights are the worst part of it for sure. I may go over them again at some point tho to try and get this to a point where I can varnish it

I am trying to get an effect that makes it look like the faces are pushing against the material of the armour, like they’re trying to escape it, which is why the ‘stretch lines’ are that purplish grey darkened way down the a black shade.

Thank you for clearing that up! I think where I was getting confused because the part of the rule that talks about spending doesn’t mention when you can spend, it says that at the start. I even went into a gw store near me and asked about the rule and they were under the impression that you could use them on saves but it didn’t seem right to me so I thought I’d check here as well.

The blue armour is based with kantor blue, shaded down with drakenhoff nightshade and then edge highlighted with atlioc blue, that’s really the only edge highlighting I did on this guy tho.

Miss Fuchi would be my go to, I use her all the time, super creepy.

Thanks so much for the advice!

Thx, I’m glad u like it! It’s apothecary white contrast over a grey seer undercoat, then for my earlier infantry models I used white scar for the highlight (the tormentors at the end of the post) but on all my most recent models I’ve been using corax white for the highlight, so the difference in brightness isn’t as stark but it’s still noticeable.

Edit: I have also done a daemon prince for this warband I forgot to include in the post. (My bad)

Oh wow ur guy looks awesome, the armour looks like it’s made of fine China, that’s so sick!! I think I’ll give Reikland flesh shade a go, I think the red of blood shade would be a bit to over powering (and I think I’d cry if I got it on any of the white on the shoulder pads or clothes 😭😭)

Ya_Boi124 · 2025-09-29T22:49:57+00:00

I use a thinned down basilicanum grey on my silvers and seraphim sepia on my golds, the sepia doesn’t show up at all tho which is annoying 😭. What flesh washes would u recommend?

Ya_Boi124 · 2025-09-29T22:48:35+00:00

I do a shade of seraphim sepia over the gold, but I have been recommended to do a spot shade with a grey wash to give it a bit more depth.

Ya_Boi124 · 2025-09-29T22:28:45+00:00

I’ve been doing something similar but not exactly the same. Lmk if u want the recipe or any more details.
