a more colourfull approach, for a more eccentric army.

  1. ARMOR
  2. start by basing in black and drybrushing celestra grey and corax white.
  3. apply vallejo game colour midnight purple to all armor pannels.
  4. with a dry brush, going in a downwards motion, apply THE ARMY PAINTER's warlock purple. dont worry about the skin. we can get that later.
  5. from the bottom up, with a dry brush, apply vallejo blue green.
  6. with a small brush finish up details for both magenta and blue, edge highlighting the hard lines of the pannels. focusing more on the magenta parts.
  7. SKIN
  8. begin by applying two thin coats of THE FANG over all skin parts.
  9. on the higher parts, apply FENRISIAN GREY, avoiding the deepest recesses, especially on the face.
  10. for a final skin highlight, apply a small amount of russ grey on only the highest points
  11. for better blending, use thinned colours and add more layers, building up as you go.
  12. HAIR
  13. begin by painting with CYGOR brown contrast. then highlight using a lighter skin tone colour along the highest points of the hair.
  14. using a glaze of whatever colours you want, glaze over the highlighted parts and slightly over to give the effect of dyed hair
