This guide is a work in progress for now. I will update all of the recipes used as I go, but plan on finishing up each of the models when I feel inspired.

Skin

1. Basecoat with 2:1 Cadian Fleshtone and Mournfang Brown .
2. Increase the amount of Mournfang Brown in the above mix and shade the skin.
3. Mix the base colour 2:1 with Ushabti Bone and add chunky highlights.
4. Increase the amount of Ushabti Bone in the above mix, so it is about 1:2 now. use this for finer highlights.
5. Mix in a little White and selectively highlight.
6. Increase the amount of White in the mix, until it is a subtle off-white. Now pick out a few specular highlights.

When it came to the shaved portion in the centre of his head, I highlighted as normal, then mixed a little Dawnstone into the initial highlight colour. With this mix, glaze the section then highlight if needed. This should add a subtle grey.

4. Increase the amount of Teclis Blue in the mix, so it is now 2:1 with Dark Reaper . Use this colour for fine highlights of folds and edges.
