Death Guard Painting Series

[Viktor]

So for those of you that are interested in Warhammer/40k, I am thinking of doing a tiny step by step series on how I paint my Death Guard models to give some people that asked me how I painted my Nurgle figures in the past.

 

1st, P3 matte white primer. Let dry for at least 1-2 hours.

2nd step in the Death Guard series. 3x layers of Athonian Camoshade from Citadel. Let each layer dry for approximately 1/2 hour or more in between each coat. I will let this guy dry while at work today.

Step 3 in my Death Guard painting: Metallics! Warplock Bronze on the shoulders with various highlights of Brass Scorpion and Runefang Steel. I then spotted it with Nihilakh Oxide and finally washed it all with Agrax Earthshade to dull the metal down.

 

In various other places I based some joints with Leadbelcher and washed with Agrax Earthshade once again. The more shiny Leadbelcher areas will be covered in Typhus Corrosion with a drybrush of Ryza Rust!

The smashed shoulder plate looks great.

Step 4: Typhus Corrosion applied to some metallic areas as in the grenades, gun, and some pipes. Dry brush that with Ryza Rust for an old rust corrosion effect. Further dry brush with Runefang Steel for some scratch effects.

Step 5: For the protruding foot, I decided to make it look fresh and bloody. To do that base with Khorne Red. Nulin Oil wash. Once that is dry, spot highlight with Mepheston Red. Finally add Ardcoat for a permanent wet glossy look.

Step 6: Final details with the gun and other miscellaneous bits. For the gun, i chose to make it a wooden brown from P3, wash with Agrax Earthshade, and highlight with Jack Bone. Also for the gun's grip, base with Abaddon Black, Nulin oil to dull the shine, highlight with Administratum Grey. Last part is to Base it.
