henrywalker Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 so here is something i posted earlier. its a way i found of painting the basic metallic colour on grey knights (or sanguinary guard) **************************************************************************************************** ************ So i have just tried 5 different methods of painting bulk silver for my new grey knights. i was trying to get a scale with very fast at one end and very good at the other. I was quite surprised that what was basically the fastest technique also ended up looking the best. the first one i tried i started with black and worked up through boltgun etc through to mithril and then various mixtures of mithril with more and more skull white. i sent ages working on shading and i ended up not liking the end result. it wasn't bad it just didn't reflect the time taken. the quickest i thought worked VERY well and i'm going to describe it below. it ended up very bright and clean but still with good shading. it is the same technique i used to paint my sanguinary guard gold. I'm sure this exists but i haven't seen it anywhere so here ya go. grey knights/sanguinary guard: undercoat skull white paint mithril silver/burnished gold (this will be a very patchy coat) wash heavily with Asrumen blue/Gryphone Sepia overbrush heavily with boltgun metal/dwarf bronze overbrush lightly with chainmail/burnished gold drybrush with mithril silver/(1:1 burnished gold:mithril Silver) this worked very nicely with my sanguinary guard and i really want to get hold of a grey knight to try the silver version on it works particularly well with the gold as it gives it a very strong bold quality which is hard to get with gold as it is quite pale **************************************************************************************************** ************ GLOWING EYES i like the GW eyes too. the way i found to do them is as follows: mix 3:1 skull white:mithril silver. drybrush lightly in the area around the eyes. mix 3:1 skull white:hawk turquoise. drybrush a slightly smaller area carefully paint the eyes hawk turquoise mix 1:1 skull white:hawk turquoise and paint the edges of the eye till there is just a one darker spot at the pinnacle of the lens. **************************************************************************************************** ************ power weapons: ok so there are a few ways to do these. the easiest is just paint them mithril silver then stain (washheavily) with either blue or red a lot of people do the ligtning bolts thing which i think looks great but if every model has them then it is too much effort for me. an easy way is paint them black or dark blue. get a thin silver pen and draw runes or lighting on. then wash with blue. or you could just do NMM like GW has but to be honest i don't like how they have done it.
