NOT EVERYTHING IS BLACK & WHITE

*****

At last I’ve finally had time to sit down & put a little bit of colour (well kind of) onto the first 4 sisters. I’ve decided to go with 4 at a time batch painting to speed up the process. If I’m honest whenever I’ve done an army before I spend ages doing one model at a time & I never manage to finish an army so this seems like a good middle ground.

Due to work, updates won’t be as regular as I’d like but they will come eventually so keep your eyes peeled. At the beginning of each painting post I’ll include the list of paints I use within the intro.

PAINT LIST

*****

• WRAITHBONE

• CONTRAST MEDIUM

• CONTRAST BLACK TEMPLAR

DUST OFF PAINT ON

*****

Hey the above pics upside down for absolutely no reason. How weird ? After a base coat of wraith bone spray my models have been kicking about my office for a little while so I used a large crappy brush to give them a dust off & remove any stuff that might have settled on the surface.

WRAITHBONE

*****

After their brush down I hit these guys with some wraith bone from the pot mixed with a little water to thin it down & painted over the bits I had missed.

PAINTED BLACK

*****

The first step & largest colour on the model is the black so using a little contrast medium mixed with contrast black templar I roughly painted all the armour, the bolt gun & half the stuff I didn’t want to be black. (Hey I’m not neat ok!)

TIDYING UP

*****

After the black I use wraith bone mixed with a little water again & applied a couple of coats onto all the bits that shouldn’t be black to tidy up. After this step I’ve got the perfect base to move onto the next stage which will be applying all the base colours to the models. Check back next time when we moved past black & white at last. YES!

Much Love
