PAINTS &
TECHNIQUES
STAGES
Each model is split up into four stages, each
with a list of colours and the corresponding
paint that was used for it. Each stage uses a
diff erent technique to achieve a similar eff ect
on each element but with diff erent colours.
Stage 1 is basecoating. Base colours are
applied using fl at colours. Since the models are
primed a lighter colour these initial coats are
applied slightly watered-down, around two parts
paint to one part water.
Stage 2 is shading. During this stage we apply
washes and glazes to the more shadowed
areas of the miniatures, particularly the lower
edges and undersides.
Stage 3 is layering. This stage involves applying
a layer of a lighter colour, generally focused
towards the top of the model, avoiding the
areas previously shaded. This guide also
features a lot of line highlights at this stage.
This involves applying a thin line of paint to the
raised areas and straight edges of the area.
Stage 4 is for fi nal details and highlights. This
stage involves adding the fi nishing touches,
sometimes just small details like the eyes, or
adding small highlights to increase defi nition.
If you fi nd yourself unsure of where to apply
the highlights or spot highlights, look over the
images alongside the guide and compare that
stage to the last.
