Each of the bases is painted with Gunmetal and then dry brushed with chain mail. I prefer to execute this process early because dry brushed metallics can get everywhere. Then, I correct any overpaint on the dry brush with the priming color...once again, I misplaced that photo but this test paint captures the base nicely. I had been requested to paint the adults purple. By using a diluted purple similar to the Games Workshop Contrast paint process, the purple settles nicely into the primed crevices taking care of most of the shading.

By the way, I tried the Contrast Shyish  Purple on another adult and was surprised the results were nearly identical. I will be using the GW purple on the rest of the figures.
