A simple recipe I developed to batch paint and entire army quickly and be able to add new units easily that all look awesome on the battlefield with minimal steps.
Airbrush + Drybrush = 😎
Ratios = (paint:thinner)
Underpainting & Prep
Prime black (3:1)
Zenithal off white (1:4). Directly above and on areas of interest so the contrast is dramatic and most of the model remains dark. Otherwise the underpainting gets too bright.
Underpaint dirty red from above (1:4)
Underpaint blue ink from below (5:1)
Drybrush purple + white (1:1) to brightest clack & tassels area
