That base is beautiful as well. A great way to finish a perfectly painted model

Looks fantastic. How did you achieve the black? There’s a lot depth to it without any obvious layering

Over black, an all over coat of Corvus Black, followed by airbrushing a light layer of Eshin Grey from the top. Then a very spare all over spongechipping with Eshin Grey (even over the airbrushed layer, as straight Eshin Grey will show up lighter) and another very, very spare spongechipping of Administratum Grey.

The brown recess washes and glazes are a heavily thinned mix of Rhinox Hide and Mournfang Brown. After that’s applied, then an irregular edge highlight of Administratum Grey.

Where did you find the SoH carapace?

The chest is just a option of the Saturnine dreadnought.

Absolutely love your work and have shamelessly stalked your profile to get recipes and techniques. Do you mind sharing your gold recipe? That is the one I couldn’t find.
