Frostmourne Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Has anyone actually tried this paint from FW? I'm really struggling with a way to paint fists decently. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317659-phalanx-yellow/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironwithout Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Averland sunset base, 50/50 mix water and agrax earthshade, averland sunset then work up to yriel yellow and an edge highlight of 50/50 mix of yriel yellow and bleached bone.

Marshal Loss Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 New HH model masterclass coming soon, this scheme will be in it which presumably uses the FW paints http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources/catalog/product/600x620/99590101389_LEGIONFALCHION1a.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317659-phalanx-yellow/#findComment-4264227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim AMM realgenius Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I have no experience with the FW paints, but there are a lot of good IF schemes out there. With the yellow though, I really recommend the use of an airbrush. Here's a scheme I like: Army painter leather brown primer (can be any brown really) Airbrush: pick out hilights on armour with white light thinned down coat of GW averland sunset all over take care not to cover all of the pre shading pick out hilights again with GW yriel yellow Wash lightly with 50/50 mix of GW nuln oil and agrax earthshade Courtesy Olly83hammer on Heresy 30K board: http://heresy30k.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/1164-my-imperial-fists/ http://i1374.photobucket.com/albums/ag419/olly83hammer/a674a8be2e07feee12d03b605c63e3e3_zps6c6963fa.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317659-phalanx-yellow/#findComment-4264336 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostmourne Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 Amazing hints and tips guys. Anyone used the Tamiya Flat range yet? Iv seen some good things from them Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317659-phalanx-yellow/#findComment-4264401 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 The old FW scheme used to be a multi-stage mix of Clear Red and Clear Yellow in different ratios to build up theirs. I should have the email for the scheme they sent me... Will update.

chaplain mortis Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Gotta agree with jim amm Airbrush is the way to go..... much easier (to keep you sane) for laying down the yellow on lotsa minis in one sitting.. Plus you can use airbrush color primers...ive been using dunkelgeb as a base recently.. Hope you find something that works for you :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317659-phalanx-yellow/#findComment-4264468 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frostmourne Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Wow that's a lot of stages. Maybe beyond my Patience for bulk models. I'm thinking just a grey or brown undercoat and layers of flat yellow. Any thoughts?

Slips Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 If you want an On-Board Example, look up Phalanx Warders PLOGs, he uses the scheme to a greater extent. The FW Scheme gives you much more depth of color than just Yellow. A feeling I'm trying to replicate with my Multitude of Yellow Schemes I've done overtime.

Frostmourne Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Iv just looked them up and they look amazing to be fair. With each progressive layer, is it zenithal style or whatever it's called? Or just a flat all over coat? Thanks.

I've used the Tamiya Flat before, but never with a paint brush. It is flat, so consider if you want to do something like transfers you'll get better results if you gloss it up. Brown + flat yellow would be a good look, but I'd also go for a dark wash for the recesses.

Billy Butcher Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I use tamiya for mine, but with an airbrush White primer Lemon yellow Shade with clear orange Varnish Burnt sienna oil wash Varnish Two coats of clear yellow Sounds a lot of work but it rally isn't, mainly as it doesn't need a great deal of precision. The below is wip but you get the idea for the yellow Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317659-phalanx-yellow/#findComment-4265284 Share on other sites More sharing options...
