Model(s): Chaos Lord

Paint(s): Chaos Black spray, Abaddon Black, Dawnstone, Dark Reaper, Retributor Armour, Reikland FleshShade, Scale Colour – Metal n’ Alchemy – White Alchemy, Iron Warriors, Leadbelcher, Nuln Oil, Averland Sunset, White Scar, Trollslayer Orange, Bugmans Glow, Cadian Fleshtone, Kislev Flesh, Druchi Violet, Zandri Dust, Agrax Earthshade, Ushabti Bone, Screaming Skull, Rhinox hide, DoomBull Brown, Mephiston Red, Carroburg Crimson.

Method(s): base with Chaos Black spray, like with other models, base again all over with Abaddon Black. highlight all armour plates around the trim with Dark Reaper.

for the gold trim base Retributor Armour, wash Reikland FleshShade, layer avoiding recesses with Retributor Armour, lastly apply a very fine highlight with Scale Colour – Metal n’ Alchemy – White Alchemy.

Flesh: base the face and all the fleshy tubes with Bugmans Glow, pick out eyes with white scar and teeth with Screaming Skull. apply a wash of Nuln Oil to the teeth only. paint pupils of eyes with Abaddon Black. apply a wash of Reikland FleshShade to all flesh parts including the face. next layer Cadian Fleshtone avoiding the dark recesses. highlight with Kislev Flesh. finally create a 1:1 mix of water and Druchi Violet and paint over all fleshy pipes and the lower part of the face in particular the sunken cheeks, this really helps give the grim dark evil look we want on a chaos warrior.
