Changed my original stormcast recipe to fit more the Hallowed Knights colours. Wanted their armour to almost look like there was light emanating inside softly to match Gardus' ability

Armour

  1. Base coat all of the armour in Dark Turquoise : Fluorescent Blue 80:20
  2. Drybrush armour in Matt Black so blue is in recesses (mostly to make sure there is a better base coat for the metallics
  3. Drybrush armour with Gun Metal
  4. Lighter drybrush armour with Shining Silver

Leather/under amour/wood/parchment

  1. Base coat all leather, under armour, and wood with Quicksand Brown
  2. Glaze leather and under armour with Magos Purple
  3. Base coat parchment with Sun Bleached Bone
  4. Glaze everything in this section with Nuln Oil
  5. Highlight wood with Quicksand Brown
  6. Glaze parchment with Pallid Bone
  7. Highlight leather, under armour, and parchment with Sun Bleached Bone

Cloaks

  1. Base coat in King Purple (AK)
  2. Highlights with Blueberry
  3. Highest highlights with Orchid Light

Gold

  1. Base coat all gold in Brass Scorpion
  2. Glaze all gold with Reikland Fleshshade
  3. Highlight all gold with Rich Gold

Pauldrens

  1. Base coat pauldrens in Dark Turquoise
  2. Base coat livery on pauldrens in Matt Black
  3. Sponge on livery with Sun Bleached Bone

Faces

I did different on each to create variety and I'm still not amazing at faces

  1. For the eyes I created a very watery Dark Turquoise and glazed this in and around the eyes, removing excess with some kitchen roll and reapplying until the desired look
