Pvnisher Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Just a quick question about the paint job on ad mech imperial knights, as I'm looking to make them house raven. I'm more looking into the paint of the non armored pieces. The non armored pieces to me look black but when you look at the paint schemes that come with the instructions it shows it as bolt gun metal. I'm wondering if you guys can help me out as I'm almost done building my 9 knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magos Takatus Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 From the images I've seen you'd probably be best off painting them gunmetal. That's a closer match than pure black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Avoghai Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 It's gun metal with a wash of nuln oil and a drybrush of necron compound. The difference of colours of metal on the raven paint scheme is here to underline the difference between a dark, full of oil and coat metal of the robotic parts and the silver trims of the armour pieces. http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammer40k/images/c/c8/House_Raven_Knight_Gallant.png Magos Takatus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool I bought some army painter spray paints so will go ahead and prime when I'm good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
