faol Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Greetings Brothers, I've put together a easy step by step tutorial on how to paint an Iron Hand Chapter of Space Marines. Paints used: Chaos Black BoltGun Metal Metallic Gunmetal Gray (folk art paint 667) Chainmail Black Ink Purple Ink Brown and or Chestnut Ink red Ink 1. Prime model like any other miniature (I used black spray primer) 2. Base coat with chaos black (this covers any spots the primer did not cover well) http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/014.jpg 3. Give model a good even coat of Metallic Gunmetal Gray (folk art paint 667) thinning it with 1:1 ratio of FFW (future floor wax or it equivalent for non-US members) http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/015.jpg 4. Drybrush with boltgun metal http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/016.jpg 4a. Now it's time to stretch, get up, have a rest room break, change laundry :lol: Now for the first wash 5. Mix up Black and purple ink mixed with FFW (1:1:2) ratio and apply to mini and not the weapon http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/017.jpg Now if it look s bit purple it's okay we'll be fixing that later 5a. Wash#2: Repeat step 5 and now using brown or chestnut ink or a mix (1:1:2) wash the bolter or choice marine weapon. http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/018.jpg 6. Wash#3 Using Black ink (1:1) ratio if now dark enough repeat. (Can you straight black ink as well</i>) http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/019.jpg http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c49/iolair_faol/Space%20Marines/How%20to%20Paint%20Iron%20Hand%20Tutuorial%20Pictures/020.jpg 7.
