It’s sometimes easy to forget there’s a non-Space Marine faction involved in Imperium, but Issue 68 comes with yet another Canoptek Wraith. We’re up to three of these now, and this should be the last one.

This was a technique I originally developed for my Wraithknight – a model covered with so many extremely huge gemstone bumps that the gemstone paints and traditional gemstone methods didn’t quite look quite right. The technique also scales well in reverse, looking really neat and unique at a small scale. Most importantly it’s the easiest thing in the world to do and it takes a matter of minutes to complete. Here we’re doing our lower highlight. I use a little bit of bright orange on top of the Evil Sunz Scarlet to really make this pop. It’ll show up later when we add ‘Ardcoat. The last model in Premium Kit 4 is the Big Mek. No model in this set sums up Orks in the 40K universe quite as well as this technology-obsessed maniac. Honestly, if you have the time, use one of the other methods listed. But if you’re like me and are time poor or just hate painting fiddly details then I have a simple two step process. He’s a little more intensive to assemble compared to his peers (though that’s not saying much), but he’s certainly the stand-out figure amongst the bunch. I can’t wait to get some paint onto him.

Best primer for miniatures

In the image above, I’ve attached a piece of textured green stuff to her base that I’ll paint to look like a stone-flagged floor. Note that this component doesn’t come in the magazine. Premium Kit 4 When the Drazhar model was first announced, I took one look at it and knew I had to have it. The character was always cool but the old model was, shall we say, showing its age. The new plastic was a huge improvement, and although I was a little down on his rules at first sight I’ve come around on them since.

And, of course, there’s also a miniature of the shadowy agent of the Imperium. It’s a really nice one, too. There’s also a sizable guide for painting Calgar and his Honour Guard, as well as datasheets for both. Miniatures The Orks themselves are, unfortunately, not the most recently released chaps in the greenskin range. 2022 saw a bit of a facelift for 40K’s Orks, but these models are not those. But never mind – these are still pretty cool.Citadel Technical paints encompass specialist formulas that have each been designed to perform a specific painting or modelling role Below is a rough Harlequin Skyweaver I painted up for a friends birthday with a very happy little nurgling hanging on for dear life. Speaking of paints, just in case you weren’t sure where to begin with your Premium Kit 4 goodies, you’ll be pleased to know that this set comes with two paints and a wash you can use to make a start painting Ork flesh.

To start with I based the gems and weapon bits with Naggaroth Night, I put a decent amount of this onto my palette since I am going to mix the next colour into in a few steps. Once again, I’m going to pinch the table from our Premium Sets Savings Breakdown so you can see how much money you’re getting off Premium Kit 4. Premium Kit Number

Who is Drazhar?

Then I paint a line where I want the liquid to begin going around the vial. In this case, I used Sotek Green. I use the trim arrows as markers to make sure I’ve got a straight line – I want the line to be the same distance from each of the arrows as I go around. I shade that up using more and more Reaper Pure White toward the bottom. This gives the liquid a glowing look. As I do this, I paint in vertical lines rather than horizontal bands – this helps give the impression of movement in the liquid. I’ll also add a few dots of Drakenhof Nightshade to look like bubbles.

White Scar is one of those paints you’ll likely never actually finish. It should be used so carefully and selectively that you won’t get to the bottom of the pot before the paint turns into gunge. Bonus: Inquisitor Greyfax As the accompanying painting guide will instruct you, the two paints in Delivery 18 are designed to paint all those glowing green bits on your Necrons.http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336154-heresy-thousand-sons-metallic-no-air-brush-required/ The process is pretty similar for large and curved glass surfaces, though you can use gemstone highlighting (circles) on glass bowls/domes. Finally, since tesseract glow wasn’t around at the time of his tutorial, do you think that color would make a good choice for the ghostly eye lenses? While I am demonstrating this on gems, it is a somewhat weird case since I am using the same colours as the weapons. To differentiate, I am going to use differing percentages of each colour between the self illuminating vs volumetric items. In other words, for for the glowing stuff I will use far more of the final bright colours compared to just a streak in the gems, it will become obvious in the final photos I hope! With the very name “Technical” being Citadel’s title for its own range, it’s obvious this is the brand we’re recommending here. We don’t do so lightly, though – these paints are excellent for a number of reasons, and perform superbly in a variety of applications. For the sake of ease, we are breaking out the “texture” technical paints into their own subheading, as they’re used mostly for bases.
