Progress:  So I have constructed the first spue of Men-at-arms and let me say this, they are a delight. If you owned the original plastics let me assuage any fears, these rank up and don’t look like break dancing fools.  Paint is currently being applied.

Tutorial:  Many people often ask me, gee Mr Beardragon14 , how do you paint shiney metal armour so quickly, given that you are basically a talentless hack??

Here are is the three step process that I came up with earlier in the year to paint Hallowed Knights Stormcast Eternals, and Warriors of Gondor quickly.

Step 1: Spray the models with a gunmetal base.

Step 2. Give a heavy drybrush with a silver paint

Step 3. Give a reasonable wash with Nuln Oil Gloss.

and metal is done … quick and easy , any idiot can do it … (and this idiot  is proof)

 

From left to right 1) Metal spray  2) Silver Dry-brush 3) Nuln Oil Gloss wash ( This wash doesn't darken the armour too much, flows nicely into the recesses, gets rid of most of the dry-brush's graininess and gives the armour a nice shine .....
