‘The Dark Crows’ - Painting Part 1
With the cultists I wanted a splurge of colour reminiscent of parrots or parakeets that would link them to the god of change and those Tzeentch vibrant tones.
So, we start with a spray of PlastiKote black and then batch painting colours across the whole squad including the chaos spawn. Skin tones first with Kislev Flesh and Reikland Fleshshade wash. The Feathers were painted white and washed with Carroburg Crimson, Casandora Yellow and Thraka Green to match with the colour pattern of the Anoited One’s bird-like head. Clothing was dry brushed with Wraithbone and weapons with Chainmail and Retributor Gold with a wash of Nuln Oil. I tended to slightly blend the washes on tacky wet layers.
Bases were adorned with Barbed Bracken foliage that I’d pre-painted on the sprue and flocked with the same green grass as the Chaos Space Marines to tie them all together as one big patrol.
Start with a base coat of black to enable depth of shadows.
