As you’ll see in the images, I simply took an inexpensive synthetic brush and applied a heavy undiluted coat of the contrast paint over the model. For myself, I’m looking for a decent tabletop quality paint job. Citadel Contrast Color paints along with a good dry brush (2-3 layers to even out the raised surfaces and add highlight) is all I need. 6. Add accent colors

Congrats if you have followed the tute up to this step. Your model is done. You and it are great. Go celebrate this greatness! TheChirurgeon’s Method Ultramarines are another Space Marine chapter that are commonly associated with the colour yellow. Casandora Yellow can be used to create a warm, sunny glow on their armour and models, and can be used to create shading and depth on their infantry, tanks, and other equipment.

I’m not a big basing guy. I prefer to make things as simple as possible so I can move on to the next model. Therefore, Games Workshop’s Texture Paints are a real life-saver for me.

In June, we invited Warhammer TV painting presenter Emma Robinson to talk about her favourite colours and some inspired uses for them. Today we’ve got her co-host, Lizzie Ward, to talk about her 10 favourite paints from the new range and how she has been using them. I’m not a fan of the look of the facemasks on the helmets, so I snipped these on all the models. I knew this would make painting the mouth area a lot easier too, which was already going to be fiddly. Step 6 – Drybrush Tyrant Skull. Tread carefully with this, as too much will stand out. Get some Tyrant Skull on your brush, wipe the vast majority off, and drybrush the base (including the stones) only until you just start seeing the paint become visible, and then immediately stop for that area. This will likely only happen after a couple strokes.

Coda’s Davonic Badlands Extravaganza

Runelord Brass (brass) is a metallic paint that can be used to add a touch of shine and realism to the model. Brass is a split-complementary color to yellow, which means that it is a color that sits on either side of the complementary color. When used in combination with Casandora Yellow and Naggaroth Night, it creates a balanced and visually interesting color combo. And, then you’ll still have to figure out how to shade your yellow base coat once you’ve airbrushed it on your model. Problems, problems… Glazing with an airbrush helps blend color. This even works well with…Yellow. On the other hand, if you’re a hardcore wargamer where painting is a secondary priority for you, then maybe you don’t mind missing a few things in the paint job. Lizzie: As majestic as Sigvald himself, this is a really vibrant colour that shades and highlights effortlessly. Naturally, I’ve tried this on the Prince himself and I can confirm – he heartily approves.
