Colour scheme for grey knight grand master


Recommended Posts

No pic unfortunately but i'll try to explain it the best I can.

 

I did the standard silver with the gold embossed words on the shoulders and everywhere esle, the receiver on the stormbolter is black, and the loin-cloth thingy is a dark red, and i did a dark blue ink wash on all the silver parts, a black wash on all the gold parts.

 

I should mention that for the gold i started with a bronze color and then dry-brushed on gold then used the black ink, so it looks kind of copperish.

 

For the eyes i just but a bunch of layers of blue ink over the silver so they are very metalic looking.

 

That's the best i can explain it, it got me "best painted character" at an outrider tourny so I am rather proud of it, wish I had a camera.

 

Slim

that depends on what kind of Grey Knights you want. Do you want the mainstrea silver ones? The classic black armoured ones(which is what i do :ph34r: )?Codex Grey Grey Knight? Perhaps some shadow grey ones which have the bluish tint thanks to the shadow grey? the possiblities are endless. Most of us will probably need more info on what you want to do if you want your Grey Knights to turn out with a scheme you like.
In the first place I wanted to give my master some red armour and paint the head white.

 

 

you coudl always try to make the red metallic look ...

 

mix mithril silver, redish bronze (whatever is the most red) and red ink ... maybe some blood red as well

 

and see if you can get a nice red metallic look on him ...

 

may be cool if your other Grey Knights are metallic ...

If you are doing standard silvery guys with gold details, simply reverse the colours so it is gold withsilver details. Also i use a purple ink for gold which looks damn good too.

 

Thats all i can offer unless you post more pics and/or info as other people have quite rightly pointed out.
