READ OVERVIEW
In this course, GraveHammer teaches simple and effective paint recipes to achieve the iconic red armor of the Blood Angels. We start with a troop model – so you can learn the basics of the armor recipe, extremely easy flesh, and OSL effects. Then we paint Mephiston Lord of Dread and go in detail with the armor recipe, lighting and atmospheric effects.
We finish with the Dreadnought, where the emphasis is on weathering and battle damage, painting gun barrels, lots of weathering and streaking effects, and another simple take on OSL technique.
