Method(s):  Base with Chaos Black spray. next I recommend starting with the face, base it in Bugmans Glow, (paint eyes first so you can easily correct mistakes) with Bugmans Glow after, base eye in White Scar, now with Abaddon Black paint each pupil, lastly with a very watered down Abaddon Black just put your brush tip to the edge of each eye this should flood the recesses for a cool dark eyeline affect.) layer Cadian Fleshtone avoiding the recesses, highlight Kislev Flesh.

Armour, base Celestra Grey, wash with Space Wolves Grey contrast, layer Ulthuan Grey avoiding any recesses or points where armour would overlap. highlight with White Scar.
