Gotta go fast! This recipe tries to focus on speed and being achievable while still looking nice. The focus is on creating contrast between the light pale skin, and darker leathers and other materials.
I wanted to build a retinue of stealthy spooky death-obsessed 'marines, and this is my WIP build of what I have managed to do so far. I was trying to go for a company that maybe spent more time amongst the grave worlds of the Ghoul Stars, purging hostile xenos quickly and quietly, emerging like phantoms from the mist (cue dramatic music). I want them to look weathered and maybe a bit ethereal, without going full legion of the damned, because I'm not cool enough for that.
Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions, this is just a quick dirty guide I made after coming back to the hobby after a +10 year hiatus. I should also note that I have a benign tremor, hence my reliance on drybrushing over edge highlighting.
An alternative take on the Storm Lords.
This is how I paint a stealth oriented T'au Cadre. The scheme is based on desaturated grey-blues, greys, black, red wine (for some pop), bronze and night vision optics.
The recipe calls for wet blending, glazing, dry brushing and edge highlighting. Feel free to omit these techniques or replace them with one you are more comfortable with
The models are based in an environment resembling the setting of 'Spec ops: The Line', wherein a metropolis is in the process of being buried by sandstorms. These sandstorms are creating an artificial night and creating pockets of poor visibility in the urban centre. With that in mind, where reasonable, I've sculpted (poorly) some camouflage cloaks to protect the units from the sandstorm and provide extra concealment. I've tried my best to make the models look battle-worn and battered, hoping to illustrate the desperation of the situation.
The narrative I had in mind is based on this cadre's fire caste and air caste compliment using ambushes, surgical strikes, assassination, and other cunning tricks to delay an attacking force while the T'au evacuate civilians on a T'au assimilated Imperial world, now fully absorbed into the T'au Sphere, with T'au architecture and technology. The T'au are using an otherwise hostile environment to their advantage, using the sun blocking sandstorms as cover in their Kauyon doctrine to disrupt the enemy formations in a painful defence in depth.
How I paint my Imperial Fists yellow
This is my take on the Warhounds scheme. After the discovery of the Primarch Angron, the Warhounds would be reborn as the World Eaters.
This is my take on the Betrayers of Pain colour scheme featured in White Dwarf 332/333. I decided to go for a rusted silver trim rather than purple.
What a fun minature to paint! Mostly all skin and chitin, which are all organic fun things to paint.
Custom colour scheme for 'successor' kabal to obsidian rose
Paint recipe for the Horus Heresy primarch, Konrad Curze (and other Night Lords).
This is a method for quickly painting Indian infantry, useful for Bolt Action or any 28mm WW2 game. All steps aside from skin colours are also useful for most British infantry.
