Games Workshop Citadel Pot de Peinture - Base Mephiston Red

Product Information

Right Hand: Mephiston’s right hand (the one without the gun) may require some bending or manipulation during assembly to ensure it lines up closer to his mouth. Try playing with it before gluing in place permanently. Highlight almost all the gold with Scale 75 Dwarven Gold, leaving the Necro Gold in just the recesses. The hexadecimal color code #9a1115 is a medium dark shade of pink-red. In the RGB color model #9a1115 is comprised of 60.39% red, 6.67% green and 8.24% blue. In the HSL color space #9a1115 has a hue of 358° (degrees), 80% saturation and 34% lightness. This color has an approximate wavelength of 612.53 nm. Caracalla has more accents than most custodes, but I’ll go through an abbreviated method for all of them: In the long, long ago when painting Custodes I used Citadel’s Retributor Armor. However, when using that paint for this Allarus Custodian I again had the same problems as I had previously. Retributor Armor doesn’t quite cover as well as it should, and it sort of tears as you apply it. Because of this, I switched over to Scale75’s Dwarven Gold. If you have access to this paint, it’s fantastic. It goes on smooth and coats like a dream. It’s good enough that you might even be able to skip the previous Charred Brown step.

This all changed with the discovery of Sanguinius. Sanguinius’ great project was to reshape his Legion in his own image, turning them from savage killers into the noble warrior-artists which will be better known to 40k players. From there the Legion took part in several important actions in the Great Crusade, including fighting a gigantic Hrud migration, the Ullanor Crusade, and the War on Murder, the battle which would lead almost directly to Horus’ fall from grace. The Blood Angels would play a pivotal role in the Siege of Terra, helping defend the Imperial Palace from Horus’ assault. There’s just one last thing to show you for this scheme, the power lance blade. You could use this for any of the power weapons custodes wield. The color scheme denotes him as a Blood Angel, but his skin is pale and his hair is no longer blonde.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 ) Although their numbers were greatly reduced during the Battle of the Webway during the Horus Heresy, the Legio Custodes now once again numbers ten thousand warriors, each dedicated to the protection of Terra. Since the return of Roboute Guilliman and his ascension to the role of Imperial Regent, they have lifted their self-imposed Edict of Restraint and once again begun crusading across the Imperium to bring swift death to the foes of mankind. They played a pivotal role in Guilliman’s battle against Magnus and the Thousand Sons on Luna, and in the defense of the Imperial palace. Such is their might that the Administratum has never recorded a single loss for the a battle that the Custodes have participated in.

For Caracalla, my shield captain here, it is very important to note that I painted the cape separately, and glued it on after I was done. This entire process is a huge pain in the butt otherwise. The head was also painted separately. Finally, fitting the Halloween theme, the skulls are Rakarth Flesh, then Ushabti Bone, washed Seraphim Sepia, and then layered Ushabti Bone once again. For the totally new and completely unaware, Duncan Rhodes is the original (and now former) Games Workshop painting presenter. Duncan’s videos, which were posted to Warhammer’s YouTube, have been viewed millions of times by painters across the world and to this day remain amongst GW’s most popular tutorials on their channel. Repeat step 3 but with Citadel XV -88 highlighting less of the armour. You want your highlights to be hitting the raised parts and points of interest. That they come in dropper bottles with agitators will have certain painters who aren’t fond of certain alternative potted paint varieties cheering, but that they are a touch more expensive than a lot of alternatives may also put people off. As we also saw at the top of this review, the bottles are also prone to a bit of, shall we say, discharge, which can lead to wasted paint.The wings were further highlighted with Ulthuan Grey (leave some of the previous highlight showing at the base of each feather). http://www.ttfxmedia.com/vallejo/cgi-bin/_modelis_info.asp?p1=ing&p2=modelcolor&p3=1#modelcolorinfo

While holding the rank of Lexicanium, Librarian Calistarius was present during the boarding of the Space Hulk Sin of Damnation as an honourary member of the Blood Angel's 1st Company. [2] Rebirth Wash the gold with Gloss Reikland Fleshshade. Necro Gold is a somewhat greenish gold, and the red tones in the fleshshade warm up the colors while retaining the darker tone. I washed the robes (and mouth) with Druchii Purple, heaviest in the folds, and the chest armour with Casandora Yellow. This gave two distinctly different red tones, which helps differentiate the two big red areas. I then tidied up a bunch of the wash with more Mephiston Red and then hit the high points with Wild Rider Red, as well as the edges of the armour. The eyes and temples have a blue glow, which I replicated with some Teclis Blue and then some Baharroth Blue. The sword lightning I’m not really sure about at this point, but by the time I’d finished it was too late to change – this is just Kantor Blue, Teclis Blue, Baharroth Blue, and then some VMC White. Try to keep the highlights limited to the “bottom-right” of the jewel. The “top-left” should remain Caliban Green:

In terms of how the paints performed on a wet palette, overall there was little to no difference between each range. After being left sealed on a wet palette ( RedgrassGames Everlasting Wet Palette Painter 2) overnight, all the paints were good to go the next day, or were easy enough to reactivate with a touch of water. Some of your Khorne Daemon models have fleshy bits, like the Skull cannon. For those I started with a base of Bugman’s Glow, then washed with Agrax Earthshade and Carroburg Crimson to give it a darker, redder hue. I then highlighted the flesh with Bugman’s Glow and did edge highlights with a 50/50 mix of Bugman’s Glow and Reaper Polished Bone.
