Hello everybody!
Today we´ll show you how to paint Crimson fists space marine in a simple way! Materials we are going to use:
Black undercoat
GW colors:
Regal blue
Chaos black
Chainmail
Skull white
Bleached bone
Mechrite red
Dwarf bronze
Ultramarine blue
Devlan mud wash
Badab black wash
1.) Undercoat model with black. Then (when its dry), we airbrushed the whole model with regal blue.
2.) Next step is to paint chest eagle with white, bolter with black and chainmail, left hand and purity seal wax with mechrite red, and purity seal parchment with bleached bone. Joints on armour, backpack vents and mouth grill are also painted with chainmail.
3.) When the paint is dry, wash shoulder pads, legs, helmet and arms with badab black (recesses are washed, not the whole model), also wash bolter, chest eagle, armour joints, mouth grill, backpack vents and left (red) hand. Take devlan mud and wash purity seal. Paint skulls on helmet and backpack and eye lenses with mechrite red and wash them with black. Eagle on bolter us painted with dwarf bronze and washed with with devlan mud.
4.) Highlight the model with ultramarine blue and highlight red parts with mechrite red (or you can use some brighter red, I did´t because it was washed with black so red was pretty dark). Use chainmail and lightly drybrush bolter. You can highlight chest eagle with skull white. Optionally, use blazing orange to highliht eye lenses.
And this is it! It took me about one hour to paint one marine but it took me around 5 hours to paint the whole squad. When you got them lined up, you just paint them like they are on a production line :)
Here´s a pic of the whole squad:
Cheers!
