1.

Undercoat your model black (i’ve


used Vallejo Surface Primer in my
airbrush)
2. Take some Celestra Grey from the
pot with a brush and add it to your
paint palette, then add some water to
thin the paint. Paint on two to three
thin coats until the coverage is solid.
Depending on how neat you are you
might want to tidy up the edges with
some black.
3. Add a small amount of Xereus Purple
to your palette then mix in some
Contrast medium (use a clean brush to
take it from the pot) the Contrast
medium is designed on to shrink and
pull the pigment together as it dries.
What this means for miniature painters
is the recesses have a stronger
concentration of pigment than raised
areas. Apply the Contrast Xerues Purple
mix to the skin areas in long uid strokes
with a large brush. Make sure the brush
is fully loaded with the mixture. You
want to use as few strokes as possible.
If you see the mixture pooling in one
area use a clean brush to wick it away
before it dries.
4. Mix Lahmian Medium and Ulthuan
Grey together on your palette. 3 parts
medium to 1 part paint is a rough
guide. This is your glaze. Carefully pick
out all the raised areas with your glaze.
The paint will be translucent and you
will require several coats so keep
repeating. This is a great way to blend
the highlights into the skin colour
without any abrupt colour transitions.
5. Paint the eyes with
Flash Gitz Yellow.

6. Use Bloodletter
Glaze or one of the
new Contrast Reds
and paint over the
sores, lesions and
also the eyes.

7. Paint the fabrics


with Kabalite Green,
this will take take two
to three thin coats.
Thin with
water.
8. Using Druchii
Violet shade paint
over the fabric areas
with a heavy wash.
9. Using thinned Kabalite
Green carefully pick out the
raised areas of the fabrics.

10. Using your smallest


brush, apply edge highlights
of Sybarite Green. Thin the
paint slightly with water
until you get a nice 􀀂ow
from the bristles. It’s easier
to paint thin lines then
having a thick paint that
you have to drag the brush
over the model to get the
paint to shift.

11. Paint all the armour


pieces with Brass Scorpion.
I like to mix a touch of
Lahmian Medium into the
the paint on my palette. It
helps smooth the paint.

12. Mix 1 part Contrast


Medium with 1 part
Warplock Bronze on your
palette and apply it to the
bronze areas.
13. Using Hashut
Copper paint over the
bronzed raised parts
leaving some of the
previous two layers
showing.
14. Paint Nihilakh Oxide
into recesses to show
copper oxidisation. If
you want to be more
accurate to real life,
paint this all over the
bronze areas. I wanted
to only use a little.

15. Paint the boots,


gloves, belt, straps and
wood with Rhinox Hide
should only take one
coat.
16. Pick out al the
raised areas on the
boots, gloves, belt,
straps and wood with
Doombull Brown.
17. Carefully paint all
edges of the previous
layer you just painted
with XV-88.
18. Mix a touch of
Contrast Medium
with Nuln Oil on your
palette and then
apply it to all the
leather and wood
areas you just
painted. To finish
your model add team
marking transfers and
paint the base. I
painted my base with
Steel Legion Drab and
washed the sand
with Agrax
Earthshade.
Then glued static
grass on top.
