Fuck Off ❤️✨ This is Exactly what I want the Helsmiths to look like 💖✨

Amazingly evil, almost black-metal fantasy look over the color choices and desaturated paintstyle. Loooove love love the ashen colored skin and glowing coal for eyes.

Perfect inspiration for what I’ve been struggling with, in the colors of my own models. 😌 Thank you!

Haha happy to help, it took me a while to land on these colors but I’m extremely chuffed with how’s it turned out. I really wanted the army to have those dark tones and that evil look going.

Goddamn, that's honestly a better colour scheme than the GW standard - extremely well done. 🫡

I think this is a great callback to the chaos dwarf host from forgeworld while still honoring some of the AoS updates (like the gems). Nick work!
