Entry 37: Night Lords Blue Tutorial
This is my Night Lords blue power armour technique. The first image is each stage step by step on four almost identical models. Also this is a handy tool if you have old paints or new paints and want to convert anything:

Stage 1: Vallejo Night Blue
Stage 2: Mordian Blue (Old GW) or Macragge Blue (New GW)
Stage 3: 40/60 mix of Water and Nuln Oil
Stage 4: Edge highlight of slightly, slightly, watered down Alaitoc Blue
Each stage start to finish.
Apply Vallejo Night Blue. This stuff is thick and pigmenty so you need to add more than the normal amount of water. 
Apply Mordian Blue leaving the original colour in the recesses. Macragge Blue will do in the current range of GW paints
A 40/60 mix of water and Nuln Oil. Do not make this coat to thick or weird white crap will form when it dries. The original guide I used says a 50/50 mix but this is too runny for me.
Alaitoc Blue around the edges but leaving the recesses be. This needs a little water added to it. There is also a divot I made in the model by accident which I have hilighted around.
