Games Workshop - Citadel Colour Layer: Stormhost Silver (12ml) Paint

Product Information

You could also probably use this to paint an ancient Spartan army, but it’s probably the wrong shade of red for the Battle of Mantinea in 418 BCE or whatever.

Stormhost Silver paint from Citadel Colour can be used in combination with several different colors to create a variety of effects. Here are three colors that I would recommend using with Stormhost Silver: Elven Armour: Another very vibrant metallic colour, this is a bright blue that leans slightly more towards the violet side. Can be mixed with Citadel’s Grey Knights Steel or Fairy Dust for highlights. It’s then given an all-over wash of a 50/50 mix of Basilicanum Grey and Contrast Medium . Make sure this doesn’t dry in any weird pools.

Step 4: drybrush Ryza Rust technical paint, or just some orange paint, onto the barricade. Use an old brush and really smash it in there.I hope my recommendations help you to improve your hobby and take your painting skills to the next level. A lot comes down to personal preference, but the spray paints and primers above have served me excellently over the last few years. This model was a Character, so a bit more care went into him, but on units of regular troops, like Warriors, this goes even faster. I applied the same basic steps, but was a little more relaxed with certain highlights. For their carapaces I used Karandras Green and applied Doomfire Magenta to their fleshier parts, while claws were painted with Blood Angels Red and the visible brain-like parts had Frostheart applied to them. I went old school on the basing and used a layer of Armageddon Dust which was then painted over with Warboss Green , washed in Biel-Tan Green and drybrushed with Niblet Green.
