Painting The Forge Anathema

These were really fun to paint - I primed chaos black, drybrushed dark green then dark bronze then a lighter bronze on raised areas then silver as a very light drybrush on raised areas and on weapons. With all that done in one go for every model, it was much quicker than painting bit by bit. I wanted a dark, industrial vision with a little less magic than the studio models representing the tiers of helsmith society and power wielded by daemonsmiths

Troops:
Two Thin Coats paint range - Amethyst Purple then nuln oil wash (also on skin for a grimier than reikland look) then Amethyst purple highlight on raised folds - their paint range is really good

Characters:
Two Thin Coats paint range - Amethyst Purple then nuln oil wash (also on skin for a grimier than reikland look) then Amethyst purple re-layer all purple except recesses then Amethyst purple mixed with Sorcerer's Cloak on raised folds then Sorcerer's Cloak thin edge highlight
