![]() Base rim painted black, and the model is finished! Credit: Colin Ward I then did a very thin pigment wash with Isopropyl Alcohol and some clay and brown pigments from Vallejo. I did a very simple basing scheme for the army, using both Agrellan Earth and Agrellan Badlands to get some basic texture on the base. I then Matte varnished the model (Vallejo Matte). After the wash is dry, I use a q-tip dipped in white spirits to gently remove the wash from the raised surfaces, leaving a well developed recess lining and shadow with some grit. For the DKOK, I do an overall oil wash on the entire model. I use an oil wash of Burnt Umber and a little Black, mixed with W&N Artists’ White Spirits. This lowers the surface tension of the model, which helps the wash wick into the recesses and also makes cleanup easier/more effective. After all the painting was finished, I gloss varnished the model before the oil wash (I prefer Liquitex Gloss Varnish). The gas mask and bedroll were basecoated with P3 Hammerfall Khaki, washed with GW Agrax Earthshade, and highlighted with Vallejo Game Color Deck Tan.įinishing up the paint, I picked out the helmet eagle with Scale75 Dwarven Gold and edge higlighted the coat using Vallejo Game Color Blue Grey Pale. Final sun dot of white in the corner, like painting a gemstone. This looks a little bright at this stage, but it will get toned down with the oil wash and matte varnish at the end.Įye lenses and rifle lenses were basecoated with P3 Gnarls Green, washed with Vallejo Game Ink Black Green, highlighted with P3 wurm green and Vallejo Game Color Yellow Green. The steel metallics were basecoated with Vallejo Metal Color Exhaust Manifold, washed with GW Nuln Oil, and highlighted with Vallejo Metal Color Dark Aluminium. The final highlight/scratches on the leather were made with a 1:2 mix of Yellow Ochre and Vallejo Game Color Ivory I then washed the leather with Vallejo Game Ink SepiaĪll the leather is highlighted with Vallejo Game Color Yellow Ochre I basecoated the leather boots, wraps, straps, pouches, packs, and gloves with Vallejo Model Color Basic Flesh. The decision to paint them all in the same yellow ochre was definitely a decision borne of efficiency, but one that works for what is a horde infantry army. I wanted to get a nice desaturated yellow calfskin leather for the gloves, boots, wraps, and pouches. For the final airbrush highlight I added more Blue Grey Pale to the previous mix. To highlight, I added some Vallejo Game Color Blue Grey Pale to the Dark Sea Blue and concentrated on the arms, upper chest, lower greatcoat, and knees. ![]() I then did an overall basecoat of Vallejo Game Color Dark Sea Blue. To get the blue-grey for the greatcoat and pants, I first primed the model black. The calfskin and blue-grey contrast each other well and keep the bare bones infantry squads visually distinct on the table. I went with a classic blue-grey greatcoat, yellow calfskin leather, and steel detailing. Efficiency, repeatability, and looking good en-masse are the keys to this scheme which I think it accomplishes. As much fun as that army project was, I was very glad to see Death Korps redone in glorious plastic. ![]() This scheme was developed as a way to paint a large number of Forgeworld resin Death Korps of Krieg models very efficiently. In today’s How to Paint Everything, we’re walking you through how we painted the brave guardsmen and women of the new kill team. With the release we finally have plastic kits for the Death Korps of Krieg, giving us wonderfully detailed kits for these long-coated soldiers. The models in the new box are outstanding, and so we’ve set ourselves to work over the past two weeks getting them painted and talking about the process. With the launch of the Kill Team 2.0 and the Octarius Killzone, Games Workshop unveiled two new kill teams: Veteran Guardsmen and Kommandos, finally giving us full, multi-part plastic kits for each. ![]()
