Yellow Cloth

  1. Basecoat with 1:1 Zamesi Desert and Ice Yellow .
  2. Soft shade with thinned Averland Sunset .
  3. Shade more precisely with Skrag Brown .
  4. In particular deep recesses, consider a small amount of Mournfang Brown .
  5. Now mix Zamesi Desert and Ice Yellow again, this time in a 1:2 ratio. Use this mix to apply edge highlights.
  6. Finally, mix a little White into the above, and selectively highlight.

Blue-Grey Cloth

  1. Basecoat with Dark Reaper .
  2. Shade recesses with thinned Corvus Black .

Black Leather

  3. Fine edge highlight everything, using Thunderhawk Blue .

Bindings

  3. Glaze raised areas with Karak Stone , dragging your brush upwards.
  4. Edge highlight wrappings with Ushabti Bone .
  5. More selectively highlight with Screaming Skull .
  6. Mix some White into your Screaming Skull and highlight a little smaller.

Skin

  2. Wash with 2:1 Reikland Fleshshade and Contrast Medium .
  3. Selectively highlight with Kislev Flesh .
  4. Finish with specular highlights of Pallid Wych Flesh .

Dark Brown Leather

  1. Basecoat with Rhinox Hide .
  2. Take some thinned Mournfang Brown and apply a heavy glaze over the leather. You are looking to cover pretty much everything but the recesses here.
  3. Now with Skrag Brown , apply a chunky highlight down the most exposed parts, covering less area that the previous stage.
  4. Mix 1:1 Skrag Brown and Ushabti Bone and repeat the above, but make it a finer highlight.
  5. Selectively highlight with Ushabti Bone .
  6. Add a little :white to the Ushabti Bone and add a couple of specular highlights, where needed.

Pale Leather Tube

  1. Basecoat as Karak Stone .
  2. Shade with Baneblade Brown .
  3. Deep shade with Dryad Bark . The jump between the initial stage and this is quite big, consider a 1:1 mix of the two to bridge the gap.
  4. Apply a chunky highlight of Ushabti Bone . This is best applied as a heavy glaze.
  5. Apply smaller highlights with Screaming Skull .
  6. I finished of the tubes by mixing a little White into your Screaming Skull and applying a few specular highlights.

Steel

  1. Basecoat with Leadbelcher .
  2. Wash with Nuln Oil .
  3. Mix some Silver RLM01 Metallic into your Leadbelcher , then highlight close to the tip (on the flat sides) and edge highlight the rest.
  4. With pure Silver RLM01 Metallic , edge highlight the tip and place a few specular highlights on corners.

Brass

  1. Basecoat: Runelord Brass
    Shade: Reikland Fleshshade
