I wanted a blue-green with some gray for my Kroxigor.

  1. Prime the model with Black and do a white zenithal from above and at the sides.

Scales

  1. Base coat the scales and soft skin with a 1:1 mix of Raging Sea and Burnt Moss
  2. Drybrush over the scales Sons of Horus Green with a small amount of Turquoise and Warm Yellow mixed in.

Black Scales

  1. ayer the black scales with Coal Black and edge highlight with Warm Grey

Some of the scales have caps over them. I painted these with the gold recipe (see below) over the black.

Soft Skin

  1. Base with Sons of Horus Green and feather out towards the transition between soft skin and scales.
  2. Add a layer with a 2:1:1 mix of Sons of Horus Green , Warm Yellow , and Orange Brown . This layer is to start building up the highlight. With this layer make it smaller than the previous step.
  3. Highlight by adding Bone to the previous step's mix. (2:1:1:1 Sons of Horus Green , Warm Yellow , Orange Brown , Bone ).
  4. Glaze over the chest's soft skin with a 1:1:1 mix of Warm Yellow , Orange Brown , and Bone .
  5. Final highlight by glazing Bone .
  6. Touchup the transition areas and the recesses of the soft skin by glazing Sons of Horus Green .

Mouth and Eyes

  1. Base the entire mouth (tongue and teeth included) with Burgundy
  2. Highlight the tongue and the sides of the mouth with Magenta
  3. Paint the rest with Ivory , but make sure to leave the very top of the teeth (where the teeth and head meet) painted Burgundy . This will give the teeth gums.
  4. Paint the eye with Ivory and a small black slit for the pupil with Coal Black .

Gold Sections

  1. Base coat with Rich Gold (or Hoplite Gold )
  2. Wash all of the gold with Magos Purple to create an antique look. Try to prevent the contrast paint from pooling anywhere.
  3. Edge highlight with Rich Gold

Ropes and Straps

  1. Base the rope or strap with Tuskgor Fur or Red Oxide (they are pretty close in color)
  2. Apply Reikland Fleshshade to help darken the rope.
  3. Add a highlight by mixing Orange with the Tuskgor Fur (or Red Oxide ). Keep adding more until you get a nice gradual highlight.

Weapon - Drakebite Maul

  1. Base the club head with Basilicanum Grey then dry brush Bright Warm Grey
  2. Add the Gold recipe to the raised areas of the maul head.
  3. Base the handle with Dark Plum and wet blend Burnt Red as the first highlight. Mix Bright Warm Grey with the Burnt Red as the final highlight.

Weapon - Moonstone Hammer

  1. Base the moonstone with Blue Black . Then wet blend Jade to highlight and add Bright Jade as a final highlight.
  2. Add the Gold recipe to the raised areas of the maul head.
  3. Base the handle with Dark Plum and wet blend Burnt Red as the first highlight. Mix Bright Warm Grey with the Burnt Red as the final highlight.
