Games Workshop Warhammer Citadel Layer Ushabti Bone

Product Information

Coat D'Arms match the OLD citadel colours (pre-1992) so there might be some difference. Shining gold has the most noticeable difference, The steel was done with a base coat of Citadel Leadbelcher, an all-over layer of Nuln Oil, then a final edge highlight of Vallejo Game Color Silver. If you have a different way you paint skulls and bone then I’d love to hear it in the comments. Specific Painting Techniques & Tutorials

You can look at it that way, whether you need bone that’s been around for a while, or bone that’s freshly exposed, but I use the colors for another reason. It depends on the color palette I’m using on a model on which bone color I go with. If I have a model that already has a lot of yellow tones, or I feel the aged bone would just blend in too much, then I’ll probably use the grey/white option. The same goes for the other way around. I let the colors I’m using overall dictate the technique I use. Troll Slayer Orange: an orange color that can provide complementary contrast to the warmth of Ushabti Bone.

Tyler: I’m a big fan of the new Kruleboyz orruks. They present an interesting new take on greenskins, from the way they armour themselves to their anatomy. The techniques I’ll show you will range from easy to advanced. Sometimes you just need to get something done, and other times you want that skull to be a focal point. I’ve got you covered either way. Enhance this weathering my mixing some White Scar into the above paints and adding smaller patches. Purity Seal – base with Khorne Red and Ushabti Bone. Shade with Agrax Earthshade. Highlight with Wazdakka Red and Ushabti Bone. Add lines of writing in Eshin Grey.

Retributor Armour Gold– This paint is a metallic gold color that can be used to paint the details of miniatures, such as weapon, jewelry or armor. It can also be used as a highlight on the bones painted with Ushabti Bone to create a realistic aged look.One of the models is eating an arm, and I wanted to really push the distinction between the skin tone on that and the tone on the ghoul. To this end I painted a really warm ruddy tone on the army, using Cadian Fleshtone, Reikland and then highlighting up with mixed in Ushbati Bone. My paint collection has a variety of brands. Each have their own attributes and I recommend using whatever gives you results you like. Anything here is could be swapped for any paint that looks close to the color. Vallejo I specifically wanted the arch to be a contrasting color, so I went with a creamy color. Credit: Kenji The next and most important step is the skin, which is a thinned Aethermatic Blue contrast paint. I start with a 5:3 ratio (5 parts Contrast Medium, 3 Aethermatic Blue) and do a few coats rather than one single coat. I find that thinning and doing smaller, lighter layers enables me to better control the contrast paint, and avoids making the models a bit too “blue” in the process. While I wouldn’t say things can go “wrong” here (as long as you like them!), these two models show a bit of the learning curve I had on thinning the paints. The first Crypt Horror below was without thinning the contrast, while the Crypt Flayer used a multi-coat approach. Both look good, but one looks a lot more “blue” while the other evokes an “icy”, “cool” feeling, which is what I wanted. I recommend allowing the first coat to dry, then edge highlighting the armour again with white before adding the second coat of Sigismund as it gives a more pronounced edge. Step 6 – Paint the Details

The Death Guard – The Death Guard are a faction in the Warhammer 40K universe, and are known for their diseased and corrupted soldiers. Ushabti Bone can be used to paint the bones on the Death Guard miniatures, as well as to paint the bone-like details on their armor and weapons. In our How to Paint Everything series we look at how to paint well, everything, talking about different assembly methods, techniques, and colors used. In today’s How to Paint Everything, we’re covering a Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar double threat: Be’lakor, the first Daemon Prince, as painted by Daniel “Skails” Rodenberg.coat d'arms match the OLD citadel colours so there might be some difference. Shining gold has the most noticeable difference, I’d have loved to have made a guide titled How to Paint Dark Angels Primaris – but I wrote this literally one week before they were announced! Mephiston Red– This paint is a dark red color that can be used to paint the clothing or armor of miniatures. It can also be used as a wash to create a bloody effect on the bones painted with Ushabti Bone. Wash Vallejo Charred Brown, leaving the base of the horn untouched, and smooth the wash line with water. Let dry thoroughly. Note that some monsters (primarily those with no Slayer level required to damage) have a faux Slayer level applied for the purpose of calculating ushabti capture chance. These levels are listed on Slayer Codex, and are provided in the calculator below.
