Painting Guide – Blackstone Fortress – Aradia Mudellan – Primaris Psyker

Painter: Dultoriminis

Model(s): Blackstone Fortress Escalation (Out of print)

Paint(s): Chaos Black Spray, Abaddon Black, Iron Warriors, Nuln Oil, Iron Hands Steel, Retributor Armour, Liberator Gold, Rakarth Flesh, Steel Legion Drab, Screaming Skull, Skavebblight Dinge, Caliban Green, Ulthuan Grey, White Scar, Bugmans Glow, Cadian Fleshtone, Kislev Flesh, Khorne Red, Baharroth Blue, Drakenhof NightShade.

Method(s):

Skin: Base: Bugmans Glow, Wash: Reikland FleshShade, Layer: Cadian Fleshtone avoiding the darkest recesses, Highlight: Kislev Flesh. for the eyes base Baharroth Blue and apply a very gentle wash of Drakenhof NightShade. paint metal implants with Iron Warriors.

Jacket:, trousers, boots, and gloves are all nice and easy. Base jacket with Steel Legion Drab, trousers with Skavebblight Dinge, and boots/gloves with Abaddon Black. For highlight add a little white to each of the colours and apply an edge highlight respectively. The inside of the jacket can just be based with Khorne Red we are not going to highlight this as it is on the underside and mostly unseen. sash should be based in Ulthuan Grey and highlighted with White Scar, tips of the sash painted in exactly the same way as the jacket. the loin cloth robe should be based in Caliban Green and treated again the same way as the jacket and trousers. add a little white to your green and highlight with this.

For armour I went with a dark tint as I feel it makes the armour orbs (this is clearly the correct name for them) pop a little more. base in Iron Warriors, wash with Nuln Oil and finally highlight with Iron Hands Steel. orbs painted the same way as eyes above except lastly add a little flick in the bottom corner of white and a dot in each opposite corner to give a lens flair look. Finally gold trim based with Retributor Armour and highlighted with Liberator Gold.

Paint Time: 6-8hours

Painting Guide – Alluna the Illuminati Assassin

Painter: Dultoriminis

Model(s): Alluna the Illuminati Assassin

Paint(s): Chaos Black spray, Khorne Red, Mephiston Red, Evil Sunz Scarlet, Wild Rider Red, Naggaroth Night, Xereus Purple, Genestealer Purple, Mornfang brown, Skrag Brown, Grey Knights Steel, Abaddon Black , Bugmans Glow, Reikland FleshShade, Cadian Fleshtone.

Method(s): base with Chaos Black spray,

Base the boots, gloves, hood and cape with Naggaroth Night, layer Xereus Purple avoiding the darkest recesses, finally highlight with Genestealer Purple.

For the main body and red flare on hood and cape, base the body only with Khorne Red, next layer Mephiston Red avoiding the dark recesses of the body. here you can pick out the tip of the hood and bit nearest the face with Mephiston Red also. for the hood blend we need to create a glaze, for this create a 3:1 water and Mephiston Red mix. paint this onto the purple of the hood just above (the part nearest face) or below (the tip of the hood) where you applied the red base and push your brush towards the red. the coverage will seem very minimal but that’s fine, we want to do several passes allowing time for it to fully dry between passes. this will create a nice smooth transition. Take your time and have fun with it.

Back to the body, with Evil Sunz Scarlet pick out the abs, top of the breasts and any other high creases in the suit. lastly a very fine highlight with Wild Rider Red.

Leather straps, base with Mornfang brown, next layer 1:1 mix Mornfang brown and Skrag Brown over all but the darkest recesses, finally highlight with Skrag Brown.

Lastly paint hair Abaddon Black, base face Bugmans Glow, wash Reikland FleshShade, and highlight Cadian Fleshtone. and pick out all metal bits with Grey Knights Steel.
