How to paint Imperial Fists

Greetings boys and girls

This tutorial will show you how we paint Imperial Fists Space Marines.

We have lots and lots of spare miniatures, ranging from ordinary tactical marines to terminators. We were brainstorming for some time and decided to paint them as Imperial Fists. Its a very beautiful color scheme, can be very demanding to paint, but the overall result is something not many marine players have in their collection.

One important thing you will need to paint Imperial Fists is an airbrush. You could paint this colour scheme with a brush, however working with yellow paints is something which averts many marine players from painting Imperial Fists.

The airbrush will give you a nice colour coverage, the technique is very easy and the final result is top notch.

Here is a list of paints we will use:

For yellow armour - undercoat with GW TAUSEPT OCHRE, then GW GOLDEN YELLOW, then wash with GW ORGN FLESH or GW GRYPHONE SEPIA. Highlight with GW BAD MOON YELLOW

For metal parts - paint with GW CHAINMAIL, then wash with GW BADAB BLACK

For crux, chest eagle and skulls - paint with GW MECHRITE RED, then highlight with GW BLOOD RED

For purity seals - paint with GW BLEACHED BONE, then wash with GW OGRYN FLESH

For eye lenses - paint with GW DARK ANGELS GREEN, then paint GW SNOT GREEN, then paint GW GOBLIN GREEN

For Storm Bolter - paint with GW CHAOS BLACK, then highlight with GW CODEX GREY

For Storm Bolter skull and eagle - paint with GW BLEACHED BONE, then highlight with GW SKULL WHITE

Now lets go over to painting.

1. The whole model is airbrushed with GW TAUSEPT OCHRE.

2. The we airbrush it with GW GOLDEN YELLOW.

3. The metal parts are painted with GW CHAINMAIL, then washed with GW BADAB BLACK.

4. The whole model is washed with GW OGRYN FLESH (alternativley you can use GW GRYPPHONE SEPIA).

5.The crux, chest eagle, skulls and purity seal wax are painted with GW MECHRITE RED, then highlighted with GW BLOOD RED.

6. Eye lenses are painted with GW DARK ANGELS GREEN, then with GW SNOT GREEN, then with GW GOBLIN GREEN.
