Grimdarkness Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I,m looking for ideas to make the E.C paint scheme look good with the new heavy chaos mini,s. Brass and gold just don,t look good with a hot pink base scheme. Ideas please.

Olis Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Swap brass for silver, maybe? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266125-how-to-make-the-new-chaos-minis-look-good/#findComment-3241466 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like the scheme I've got here, I don't mind explaining it to you? Mike.

Motorbike Mike Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 The pink was a basecoat of Pink Horror, thinned and applied in lots of coats for a smoother finish. Then a slightly thinned wash of Crimson Carroburg I think its called, Baal Red in the older paints. Then a slightly thinned wash of Devlan Mud. Blended it up Pink Horror and then an extreme highlight with Emperors Children. The Brass was Runelord Brass, Devlan Mud wash and then blended a 50/50 Runelord/Shining Gold mix, Mithril Silver highlight. The metal was just Boltgun, Babab, thinned Solar Orange in some spots and then Mithril highlight. I then tried something a little different to what I usually do; I tried blending with dry weathering powder. Just make sure you get it towards the darker edges of the panels and it makes him look really dirty whilst dulling the colours down. Mike.
