Emperor's Children paint recipe?


Recommended Posts

Is there an ec paintguide in there and if so, what purples did they use please?

Yeah there is a painting guide for HH Emperor's Children.

 

  1. First Step
    1. Basecoat Xereus Purple & Abaddon Black
    2. Layer Genestealer Purple & Fulgrim Pink
  2. Second Step
    1. Layer Abaddon Black
    2. Layer Retributor Armour
    3. Layer Ironbreaker
  3. Third Step
    1. Layer Ardcoat
  4. Fourth Step
    1. Wash Druchii Violet
    2. Wash Nuln Oil
    3. Wash Seraphim Sepia

So the purple is essentially: Base Xereus Purple -> Layer Genestealer Purple -> Layer Ardcoat -> Wash Druchii Violet. Looks like they used the Genestealer Purple layer only on the shoulders and helmet etc, so basically the raised areas.

 

Oh and I don't know if GW did that before but they added the info to do the first and third step with an airbrush. Might be an indicator that their big reveal will really be their own airbrush?

I paint mine with the following recipe:

 

Basecoat:

 

Vallejo - Royal Purple

 

Wash:

 

Duruchii Violet

 

Layers/ Hightlights

 

Vallejo - Royal Purple (Most areas, exept the recesses)

GW - Xerus Purple (Working slowly to the hightlights, you can also wetblend and mix with royal puple to get smooth transitions)

GW - Genstealer Purple for the highlights and for edge highlighting

 

Hope that helps =)
