Cool, I particularly like the paintjob on Njall. The base especially stands out. I think I'll be subbing in some hotter colors for what I have in mind.





I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

Other than that, another quality tutorial from you, Cat. If I ever need to do glowy stuff on my Eldar and Menoth I'll try and see if I can do it while changing the colours.

This is awesome! This scheme looks like it would work pretty well for Fantasy Dwarfs as well and I've been looking for a good tutorial in that area. Thanks a lot!

Awesome! If i were to try this on my Necrons, do you think snot green as rune base then highlight scorpion green then add skull white would do the trick?

Thanks guys, Bloodaxegit, I would think that would look very cool, just try it out on a piece of sprue and see how it turns out before you apply it to a model!

Interesting, you use a similar paint scheme for your SW armour as myself...though to be honest, I am suprised that it is not more common, given that it was featured in the 3rd edition SW codex as well as the coresponding WD article.



I like how you start by painting on paper to give viewers a large scale view of building up the highlights; a pitty you didn't have a model available to paint as well.



I'll have to try out the rune method you published when I start back on my SW . Should be fun.

Excellent. Was wondering how to get this effect. I plan to do it with a more red/orange, but the step by step is a great resource.
