Painting Stone


W0lfie

Recommended Posts

Hey B&C,

 

I assembled a tactical marine using a set of legs that (I believe) came from the command squad box, which has the marine kneel, with the knee being up on a stone of some sort.  Now, I painted my marine in grey (a red scorpion marines, with a slightly lighter armour colour than usual for that chapter) and am left wondering about what colours I could paint the stone.  Grey is obviously out of the question.

 

Brown? Tan?

 

Any suggestions?

Brown/tan/beige could give you a nice sandstone effect, but what is the theme of the rest of the base? Are your marines fighting in a desert? Forest? Urban environment?

 

You can get away with grey by giving it a different wash. Thanks to a tutorial I read on the B&C I now love a dark blue wash on my rock/concrete, which gives a very nice stone effect, and should look sufficiently different to the grey of your marine's armour.
