Quick and easy method for getting terrain on the table

Walkways and Platform supports

  1. Prime with a silver metalic colour, Leadbelcher is ideal.
  2. Cover everything with a heavy drybrush of Mechanicus Standard Grey
  3. Base the pipes/other metalic details with Warplock Bronze
  4. Paint any cables with Khorne Red
  5. Wash everything in Nuln Oil
  6. Light drybrush everything with Celestra Grey

Rusty pipes/Chimneys/Vents

  1. Prime with a silver metalic colour, Leadbelcher is ideal.
  2. Water down Mournfang Brown and wash it over the flatter panel areas
  3. Use Warplock Bronze on any metalic areas you don't want to be silver. This helps break up the details.
  4. Base any small details like buttons or cables with Khorne Red
  5. Wash everything with Nuln Oil
  6. drybrush lightly with Necron Compound
  7. Use Soulstone Blue to create the leaky plasma fluid effect

Anything Rusty

  1. mix either Mournfang Brown and/or Skrag Brown with water or Lahmian Medium and apply liberally.

Screens

  1. Some areas have small monitor displays, these stand out nicely done in Warpstone Glow
