Anvils of the Heldenhammer experiment with the slap-chop technique and Contrast/Xpress paints
Here is how I approached painting the homebrew Space Marine chapter of @40_cake from Instagram.

I wanted to replicate a classic 80's-90's style base with paints that are currently available. This is what I came up with.
A step by step guide, showing how to paint Be'lakor. You could definitely use this on other Daemons too, if you wanted. My ain here was to get a look close to the box art, I'm happy with how he turned out.
Based on the Duncan Rhodes Painting Academy tutorial (https://youtu.be/auhN2uKBV5g?si=-0uzWV0X6GFZhBqB) with slight changes due to missing paints.
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.
I this guide I will show you how I painted the Night Lords from the Kill Team: Nightmare bow set. Althought I have painted the specific "Nemesis Claw" team hear, you could definately apply these stages to the normal Chaos Space Marine Models too.
What good is an ancient dynasty without a grumpy old man character? I love this sculpt and was particularly excited to paint his weapon.
I've decided to eventually get around to making 1:1 colour schemes for all of the Tyranid Warrior art works of the 9 main Hive Fleets. Kronos is to be the first as it was the Hive Fleet I played during 9th Ed (that, and I am thoroughly biased for it haha).
For Kronos, the model used is a Norn Emissary as it is what I had at hand. I will eventually post a combined recipe for all 9 Hive Fleets, with the examples being 9 Tyranid Warriors, built (possibly cut up / kitbashed if necessary) and posed to be as close to the art as possible. Said combined post will also include Neuroloids to serve as examples for brain matter for each Hive Fleet, as close to the style each artwork was made with so to stay true to it.
The next 1:1 will be Jormungandr, followed by Behemoth, Kraken, Ouroboros, Hydra, Leviathan, Tiamat, and Gorgon in this order.
To keep things as simple to follow / do yourself, all paints used will be from Citadel, except for white. (Citadel white sucks, use literally any other brand)
Each ratio and mix has been tested multiple times, and is made to be exactly as shown in the art, so each ratio mentioned will be extremely specific.
If anyone has any questions or requests for artwork 1:1 recipes, feel free to ask me through Discord, located in my profile.
A reminder to myself of how I paint the gold on my Salamanders.
The oil paints used are Winsor & Newton Winton Oils, because that's what I have! The oil wash is comprised of about five times as much white spirit as paint
Update: A simpler version is included in my Salamanders tutorial here: https://paintpad.app/recipes/2325-salamanders-v0-9
