This is by no means an original paint scheme nor one i made. I linked the video that inspired this paint scheme and this is simply how i went about it. i changed up some paints and adjusted some things to suit what i already had but i highly recommend checking out his video which i linked however if you want written instructions feel free and please go give his videos a like!
- base coat with a smooth coat of Chaos Black and then coat with Naggaroth Night itll look mostly black in darker light but shows up nicely under goood light when playing a game at the table.
- dry brush Gauss Blaster Green onto the edges the raqise them up. it dosent need a lot just enough to give all the edges a nice tint. if you get streaks on a flat section just go back over with your base to touch it up
- Now you want to pick out your metallic parts. I chose to do the pipes with Hashut Copper or Balthasar Gold and then the fans, panels, buttons and such as Leadbelcher i also picked out different types of pipes with Warplock Bronze
- now pick out the wires and cables with Mephiston Red i also chose to go a little extra and did half my wires with Kantor Blue to have some variation.
- next I use Light Flesh since that's what i had to pick out the skulls and washed with Skeleton Horde
- now apply a light coat of Caliban Green to the display panels and screens
- now i pick out the lights with Titanium White as a base
- wash the metal parts that you want to be darker or more distressed with Agrax Earthshade
- now you can pick out any highlights on the metal with a highlight of Stormhost Silver
- now dry brush a bit of Averland Sunset over and around the lights to create a nice glow. the white will make the light look like its on and the dark purple will make what gets on there look more like a light glow which is a great effect
- use a bit of Casandora Yellow on the lights to make them look nicer and add a bit of pop to them
- now use Evil Sunz Scarlet on your red wires to give them a nicer look and if you did blue wires then you can wash them with Briar Queen Chill
- finally you can pick out any final light highlights with Yriel Yellow
