Crimson fists primaris lieutenant
The first model I painted from the dark imperium box. The way I've painted him is the same as my entire army though, so not really anything special, but I'm happy with how the army comes together. The icons are freehand. I like how the fist icon looks. I'm not entirely happy with the skull and laurels, but cba redoing it. I try to practice freehand quite often nowadays, as among all the things I need to improve, I find freehand quite difficult to do well. Main colours (copied from forum project log). start priming them with black. Then I airbrush vallejo game air midnight blue all over, then a zenithal spray of vallejo game air ultramarine blue to get a 2-toned basecoat. Then I wash with drakenhof nightshade, and try to clean up so it doesn't stain the armour too much. Then I pin wash with a thinned abaddon black in the deep recesses. After this I clean up where i did get stains with ultramarine blue, then do some edge highlights with ultramarine blue and white added in. The red is khorne red -> nuln oil -> khorne red -> evil sunz scarlet -> wild rider red -> sometimes add lugganath orange to wild rider red.
