Lupa15's Warhammer Underworlds
Reaver Skin
This was tough. I needed to find three skin tones that I was happy with, somewhat reflected the art work, and looks realistic. I settled on three skin tones that I could also use on the rest of the Khorne Bloodbound Reavers.
Medium Skintone (Caucasian)
- Use Citadel Bugman’s Glow as the base. Two or three light coats will cover the model effectively.
- Wash the skin with Citadel Reikland Fleshshade
- Leaving the darker color in the recesses layer the skin with Citadel Cadian Fleshtone
- Highlight the skin’s muscle with Citadel Kislev Flesh
Dark Skintone (Sub-Saharan African)
- Use Citadel Catachan Flesh as the base. Two or three light coats will cover the model effectively.
- Wash the skin with Citadel Agrax Earthshade
- Leaving the darker color in the recesses layer the skin with Citadel Bloodreaver Flesh
- Highlight the skin’s muscle with Citadel Knight-Questor Flesh
Tanned Skintone (Mediterranean/Middle Eastern)
- Use Citadel Ratskin Flesh as the base. Two or three light coats will cover the model effectively.
- Wash the skin with 1 part Citadel Contrast Fyreslayer Flesh and 1 part Contrast Medium
- Leaving the darker color in the recesses layer the skin with Citadel Ratskin Flesh
- Highlight the skin’s muscle with Citadel Bestigor Flesh
Scars
- Thin Citadel Screamer Pink to a little thicker than a wash consistency. Paint this over the scar allowing it to settle around the scar but not so much that it runs.
- Highlight the with the lightest color (aka the final skin highlight) on the raised part of the scar
