Warhammer 40k

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

@ralothar
Nice paint scheme. Care to share the mix?

[โ€“] ralothar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you! Sure I can share.

The basic scheme would be:
  • Zenithal with airbrush or sprays (black, grey, white)
  • Skin: Citadel Carrborough Crimson (thinned 1:1 with medium) all over model
  • Skin-Drybrush: Citadel Wytch Flesh
  • Carapace: Vallejo Game Color (VGC from here on) Hexed Lichen
  • Carapace Highlights: VGC Stonewall Grey Drybrush
  • "Gills" & "Breathing Holes" (don't know their names): Citadel Contrast Blood Angels Red
  • Joints: Citadel Contrast Volupus Pink
  • Hoofs, Claws & Teeth: either Citadel Contrast Black Templar or Army Painter Speed Pallid Bone
  • Eyes: Base with Citadel Contrast Bad Moon Yellow and thin coat of FX Fluor Speed Yellow
  • Gooy strings: Uhu Glue
  • Fleshy parts (Wings or Termagant fleshborers): Citadel Contrast Darkoath
  • Fresh and dried blood: Mix of Citadel Technichal Blood for the Blood God and Typhus Corrosion (varying ratio of both)
Base:
  • Paste with Vallejo Diorama FX - Black Lava - Asphalt
  • Heavy Drybrush with VGC Stonewall Grey
  • Light Drybrush with VGC Dead White
