Games Workshop - Citadel Colour Layer: Fenrisian Grey (12ml) Paint

Product Information

Weapon casings: This was GW’s “Red Period” if you ask any Oldhammer nerd, and by gum is it represented in this scheme. Mephiston Red, Nuln Oil in the recesses, then edge highlights of Evil Sunz Scarlet and Fire Dragon Bright take care of the red. This is reproduced on the sides of their helmets as well. The yellow aquilas on their weapons are just Yriel Yellow with a dot of Fuegan Orange wash in the middle for depth. The hexadecimal color code #719bb7 is a shade of cyan-blue. In the RGB color model #719bb7 is comprised of 44.31% red, 60.78% green and 71.76% blue. In the HSL color space #719bb7 has a hue of 204° (degrees), 33% saturation and 58% lightness. This color has an approximate wavelength of 481.75 nm.

Averland Sunset: This is a warm, yellow paint that can be used to create a sense of balance and harmony with Fenrisian Grey. It can also be used to create a split-complementary color scheme. The Fenrisian Grey paint is a versatile paint that can be used to paint a wide variety of armies in the Warhammer 40K universe, including Xeno armies. Here are three armies that would particularly benefit from using this paint: Astra Militarum Kill Team Tactics covers what you need to know about playing Imperial Guard on the smaller battlefields of Kill Team. Naggaroth Night– Air Paint: This dark purple color is a great choice for adding depth and complexity to the gray tones. It can be used to create a sense of mystery and intrigue in the shadows and recesses of the miniature. Highlight the face masks and squad markings with Ulthuan Grey (Optional: Add a final highlight of White Scar.What era is that paint from? Coat D'Arms is mostly 90s-era Citadel with some new additions of their own. The parent company makes CDA and P3, that's why the pots are the same. Some of the colours may be somewhat altered from their original form. I never used enough Citadel to be able to directly compare the two, but I have heard numerous people report certain colours are close but not exact. It's a source of some irony to me that I bought Coat D'Arms specifically because I wanted old citadel-style paints, but I'm now much more familiar with Coat D'Arms itself than I ever was with the original paints that led me to buy in. As a result, my memory of Citadel has been largely overwritten by my experience with Coat D'Arms. Hey gang, it’s your boi deezy. Y’all have seen my Raven Guard in HTPE: Raven Guard, but before that project, I was working on my Steel Legion. While I consciously attempted to elevate my painting with the Raven Guard project, my prime directive whilst painting Steel Legion was to get them on the table . This method was effective, as I have over 7,000 points of Steel Legion fully painted. While they look good, especially when massed for battle, they are not up to my standard of painting anymore. I still love them, though. No doubt about it. Infantry DO you have a picture of the three colours layered together as you describe? If so I'd be interested to see it. Pre-covering with a similar base colour (or mix) as suggested so the layer paint has to do less work is the easiest option, or use an airbrush to make laying down multiple thin layers more tolerable.

Red badges: Mephiston Red, Nuln Oil in the eyes and such, and Evil Sunz Scarlet highlights. With officers I tried to incorporate more red in sashes and such, painted the same way. Vehicles

Monochromacy

Highlight the pants, sleeves and bedrolls with Zandri Dust, followed by a smaller highlight of Ushabti Bone (Optional: Add a final highlight of Screaming Skull). Metallics: Leadbelcher, a wash of Nuln Oil, and an occasional highlight of Stormhost Silver was all it took. Easy. Another normal option would be a different paint brand that's a similar colour, but a higher pigment content, but it's a hard colour to match. Instar blue steel is a very close one according to my paint app (it's intended to be a direct swap for fenrisian, so that makes sense!), but I've found instar standard paints to be roughly equivalent to layer paint coverage, so that doesn't help you any I'm afraid. None of the high-pigment ranges I know of have anything particularly close alas.

BUT, if you really want to match it exactly, unless someone has specfically tried a certain paint and KNOWS it to match (which is often the case with the old GW line, not so much the new line), my suggestion would be save yourself the time and money of buying half a dozen different paints only to find they are all subtly different The Horus Heresy Book Seven - Inferno (Forge World Series) by Alan Bligh, pp. 76-77, 79 (Fenrisian Speculation) Fangir - Fangir is the monstrous Thunderwolf ridden by Canis Wolfborn. It is said that he is strong as a mastodon and as tall at the shoulder as a Fenrisian Ice Troll.At this point, the marine is finished and you can base it however you like. If you want to see how to get started with making a realistic Ice Base, See my Ice Basing Tutorial. Now here is the area you can put a little flair and extra colors. For my specialists, I wanted them to feel like part of my army, so I kept largely the same color palette, just adding dashes of other colors into the mix, and changing the locations to make them look special without making them look like they don’t belong. To lean into the slightly Nordic aesthetic, I wanted to do some runes/patterns on the shoulders. I based these in Morghast Bone, before going over with Wraithbone, and then tidying up with Mephiston Red.

White Scar: This is a cool, bright white that can be used to create a sense of balance and harmony with Fenrisian Grey. It can also be used to create a split-complementary color scheme. Eldar: The Eldar are an army of advanced alien warriors that have a refined and elegant look. Fenrisian Grey can be used to paint the armor of their soldiers, giving them a sleek and elegant look. It can also be used to paint their weapons, vehicles, and buildings, giving them a sense of balance and harmony. Shoulder Pads – Glaze the Ushabti Bone with Sigismund Yellow (This used to be Lamenters Yellow, but GW Don’t make it anymore). Base the wolf symbol with Eshin Grey, highlight with Administratum Grey and wash with NuIn Oil. Start Competing: Astra Militarumcovers playing Guard in Warhammer 40k 8th edition. It hasn’t been updated yet with the new content from Psychic Awakening V: The Greater Good, but you can find our review of that content here until we update the larger guide. White Armor: Like the rank and file Valhallans, I painted these whole models in Steel Legion Drab first. The armor was based with Ulthuan Grey (my secret weapon, holy shit this color is so useful) and down in two coats. I washed the recesses with Agrax Earthshade, then highlighted up with Corax White.

Step 2. Nuln Oil + Highlight 1

The Ciaphas Cain series is a collection of books chronicling the life and deeds of Commissar Ciaphas Cain, with the stories presented as taken from Cain’s personal notes and collected following his death. Cain’s an unreliable narrator, and extremely self-centered, though Cain himself never becomes someone you hate. There are ten books in the series, plus a number of short stories if you’re looking for more. Axe Head – Base with Stormhost Silver, glaze with thinned Calth Blue (This used to be Guilliman Blue, but GW Don’t make it anymore), stipple White Scar as frosting and edge highlight with White Scar. Using color theory and taking into account the split-complementary color scheme, it was decided to list the following paints as complements to Fenrisian Grey – Air Paint. The colors on either side of the complement are chosen after choosing the two colors that are directly across from one another on the color wheel. Then I began the weathering. I recess shaded the entire model with agrax earthshade, then drybrushed the entire model with a bone color, avoiding the grey areas. You can highlight colors with a bone highlight, but it’s difficult for the white. Necrons: The Necrons are an army of robotic warriors that have a sleek, metallic look. Fenrisian Grey can be used to paint the metallic parts of their armor, giving them a smooth and consistent finish. It can also be used to paint their weapons and machinery, giving them a cool and menacing look.
