Personally I build the entire model, do the basing, and then prime the entire thing by brush using Black . Order is not super important, but there is some time to be saved by washing both the fatigues and the flak at the same time.

Fatigues

  1. Basecoat Zandri Dust
  2. Wash with Agrax Earthshade / Lahmian Medium 50/50 mix
  3. Reapply Zandri Dust avoiding recesses
  4. Highlight with Ushabti Bone
  5. Highlight with Screaming Skull (optional)

Flak armor

  1. Basecoat Vulkan Green
  2. Wash with Agrax Earthshade / Lahmian Medium 50/50 mix
  3. Reapply Vulkan Green , avoiding recesses
  4. Chunky highlight Loren Forest
  5. Fine highlight Krieg Khaki

Flak camo pattern

  1. Paint triangular shapes with Skrag Brown
  2. Paint shapes' edges with Karak Stone
  3. Fine highlight with mix of Karak Stone and Skrag Brown

Weapon casing

  1. Basecoat Nocturne Green
  2. Chunky highlight Death Korps Drab
  3. Fine highlight Nurgling Green

Eye lenses

  1. Basecoat Thousand Sons Blue , leave top still black
  2. Chunky highlight Temple Guard Blue
  3. Fine highlight Baharroth Blue
  4. Dot corners with White Scar

I paint kill teams, supercharge my plasmas, and fail my hot rolls. I’m usually a loyalist but I occasionally do some heresy 🙂.
