Crom
I have painted Crom for a customer a couple of months ago using NMM for the metal parts (mostly with Vallejo colors, black, dark bluegrey 904, pale greyblue 907 and white) and a bright red for the armor (red 926 as base coat and scarlet 817 for the highlight with a touch of orange red 910 for the final lights. All Vallejo). For the gold parts Vallejo goldbrown 877 and golden yellow 948 with white for the final lights. Well.. if someone is really curious here's the colors I have used for the bones and the horns... English uniform 921 as basecoat, buff 976 for the highlight and white for the final lights. In all the mixes usually I use the first color pure for the base coad and then paint 3 or 4 passes using 30/50/70% of the second color and ending with the pure color. Then I give some little bits of light with a paler color (orange for the red, white for most of other colors)
