Myxx Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I can't paint yellow to save my life (literally the last pot of yellow I had dried up in the jar). Yours looks swell! What is your recipe if you don't mind sharing... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/210563-mk3-and-mk5-marines-wip/#findComment-2506774 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted September 8, 2010 Author Share Posted September 8, 2010 Okay, just got outta school! recipe: 1. Basecoat black 2. Scorched brown over the parts to be yellow. 3. Bubonic Brown (this is the actually base yellow) 4. Bubonic Brown+ Suburst Yellow+ Blazing Orange (80:20 mix of bubonic to sunburst and only a tip of the orange) leave BB in recesses 5. Add a bit more sunburst to the previous mix for highlights 6. Battle Damage= scorched brown base, boltgun metal for the actual metals. 7. Metals are boltgin higlighted with mithril and washed with a glaze of badab black. 8. Eyes, base of snot green, scorpion green ( recesses have Snot still), then hughlight with scorpion+sunburst yellow with a dot of white at the corners.

Janitor101 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 The yellow could use a devlan mud wash to make the yellow pop a bit more, cause it's a little flat at the moment, however the battle damage looks spot on.
