  1. Prime Black
  2. Airbrush Rakarth Flesh all over
  3. Paint all areas that are going to be black or silver Black
  4. Paint all red areas 50:50 with Dark Sea Blue and Red

Bone

  1. Thin Rhinox Hide with water 50:50 and recess shade all the recesses
  2. Add some more Rhinox Hide into the mix and create the battle damage at this stage to make tidy up easier
  3. Highlight the Bone areas using Pallid Wych Flesh as well as highlighting the chipping and battle damage
  4. Tidy up the bone using Rakarth Flesh hopefully, you don't need to do much

Red

  1. Using Red paint the top half of the shoulder pads leaving some of the previous mix below.
  2. Add in some Evil Sunz Scarlet into the mix and add more again at the top.
  3. A layer of pure Evil Sunz Scarlet just at the very top
  4. Edge Highlight using 50:50 Evil Sunz Scarlet Wild Rider Red
  5. Edge highlight using Wild Rider Red and also add some dots and scratches
  6. OPTIONAL: add some Orange Fire into the Wild Rider Red and do an extreme highlight.

I'm not sold on the final highlight with the orange it often gets lost so I do it sometimes and don't bother others - you can decide on how the red is looking.

Black

  1. Highlight using German Grey nice and chunky at this stage
  2. Edge highlight using a mix of German Grey and Ice Yellow roughly 50:50
  3. Final highlight of Fenrisian Grey you can skip this on the troops etc.

Metal

  1. Base using Heavy Metal
  2. Wash with Nuln Oil
  3. Wash with Rhinox Hide thinned heavily with water
  4. Highlight with Heavy Metal
  5. Final Highlight for Characters etc Thrash Metal
