GW's new range matches with the old range are the matches claimed by GW. However, many of the paints do not match very closely at all and some mixing will be required to get close to the original colours. If you are trying to match old GW with new GW, you'd be better just getting Vallejo game color or coat d'arms for the closest match ) All of the new Shade paints are excellent, and the reformulation of the existing range makes adding natural-looking depth and shadow easier than ever before. Take into account the 25 new Contrast paints and the new White Scar spray, and we’re sure you’ll agree there’s never been a better time to be a painter.

So, without further ado, on to this guide, which covers the Namarti Thralls of the Idoneth Deepkin: Basically what Bryan Blaire said. Short of a 'Eavy Metal painter giving a step-by-step, the GW tutorials are the closest approximation. Mix some White Scar into the Karak Stone and apply specular highlights to corners, where the leather would be super worn.Emma: This is a fantastic shade for making things look grimy, but not too dark or green – perfect for the Death Guard . It also looks great over silver metals and light bone colours, and works a treat for the worn gear of Orks and Chaos alike. Love it.

The Citadel Colour paint range gets a truly blue Shade, which works wonderfully with colours such as Caledor Sky on the cloaks and capes of the Lumineth Realm-lords . You may have to modify this, play with it a bit, maybe make a mix of Drakenhof Nightshade, Carrowburg Crimson, and Lahmian Medium to shade with instead for a more ruddy, less vibrant shade, or even a mix of Guilliman Blue, Bloodletter Red, and Lahmian Medium. It may also help to mix 1:1 Ionrach Skin:Slaanesh Grey as the base color. You may also want to look at Rakarth Flesh in the mix or some such. The Citadel Colour paint wizards have also created seven new Shade paints, adding even more options to your toolkit alongside perennial favourites like Nuln Oil and Agrax Earthshade . Here’s Emma to provide her expert advice on using these new tools.It’s the start of a new month, which can only mean one thing – it’s time to announce the miniature and coin of the month for March.

In the world of miniature painting, choosing the right colours for your models is an important part of creating a cohesive and visually appealing army. One way to select colours that will work well together is to consider color theory, which is the study of how different hues and shades interact with each other. Crab Claws:Naggaroth night, Shade with nuln(Had to make a shade out of abbadon since I am out of nuln) highlight with warp fiend and then a glaze of naggoroth night on top How I painted my Leagues of Votann Kill Team. I decided to go for the "normal" box art colours, as I've got another predominantly orange scene I want to try shortly.For the teats on the Fiends, I'd say: Daemonette Hide, shaded with Druichii Violet, then highlighted with Slaanesh Grey.

Going on what Bryan said though, his method does seem sound, but I'm not sure if it's Ironrach Skin. Ironrach Skin is much more greenish. I'd say it's a more grey-based colour for the skin. Emma: I love Targor Rageshade for really rugged light leathers, and for the tanned skin tones of warriors who roam the open plains of the Mortal Realms. It also looks great in the recesses of Rakarth Flesh for a pallid but wartorn skin tone – ideal for Chaos Space Marines . So...that's it. I say again thank you Bryan and Gederas for giving me the tips to reach this point.

It’s not just for Lord Kroak ! This new Shade provides a lighter, fresher finish than Biel-Tan Green . Ionrach Skin, shaded with Drakenhof Nightshade, cleaned up with Ionrach Skin, layered with Deepkin Flesh, layered with 1:1 Deepkin Flesh:Pallid Wych Flesh, and highlighted with Pallid Wych Flesh http://www.acrylicosvallejo.com/en_US/media/e588d28183cec31ffd6dcee6d3718fc3.cms/equivalencias-rev05.pdf Skin: Celestra Grey, shaded with Druichii Violet, cleaned up with Celestra Grey, layered with Warpfiend Grey, layered with 1:1 Warpfiend Grey:Pallid Wych Flesh, and highlighted with Pallid Wych Flesh. Add chip and scrathes to edges with Stormvermin Fur . Id recommend underlining them with the Deepkin Flesh / White Scar from earlier.
