THIS ONE WAS BLOODY FUN

Hello there lovely people. I’m back & have been busy paintning up my Penitent Engine from the Sisters of Battle limited edition box set.

This is probably the most colours I have used yet but much of the process is exactly the same as my other painting guides. i’ll no doubt have to post this in multiple parts so lets get started.

I began with a Wraithbone base as always before applying a single coat straight from the pot of Contrast Black Templar. I applied this all over the main Chassis of the model. Once this had dried I gave all the black a drybrush of Leadbelcher. After this I used Army Painter Shining Silver to apply a highlight to the more raised parts of the metallics & then used Contrast Basilicanum Grey to apply a glaze & give that metal that lovely muted matt feel.

I then went over all of the panels on the model with Contrast Black Templar & applied Retributor Armour to the gold details like fuel tanks, hydrolics & other bits & pieces I thought would look funky. When that had dried I went over the gold with Contrast Guilliman Flesh. A final highlight of Army Painter Shining Silver was then applied to both the silver & gold sections of the model. With that the metallics were pretty much complete.

I’ll leave it there for this one but stay tuned for Part 2 of my Penitent Engine painting guide coming in the next day or two. YES.

Much Love
