Killax Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Fantastic! Need to have a gold recipe like this too, since Im planning to convert one Warband but have the others exactly like the artwork (which will even include a beautiful hair extension for GOLDheart). So how did you do these mate? They look ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how did you do these mate? They look ace. Gold is super simple. 1. I primed these red because it was what I had to hand. No idea if it made a difference but full disclosure. 2. Got a kids ikea paintbrush, about the size of my little finger and smashed retributor gold over the whole model. 3. Liberator gold drybrush over the lot again using a 1cm brush, take most of paint off and just go over and over and over until a nice fairly smooth drybrush is achieved 3. Army painter do a range of washes, not the dips, the washes are just like the old GW ones. I use a 50:50 mix of soft tone : strong tone and a very small amount of water all over. 4. Once dry I go back and target strong tone into the darkest recesses 5. Liberator gold & some silver mixed together to pick out the raised edges & rivers and such like. 6. Paint the rest of the model!

Aegisgrimm Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Yeah, I also love how Armypainter Strong tone looks over Retributor armor. I only do just those two steps on my Stormhost's shoulderpad rims, though, as I like the bronze tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
