Effectively the Blood Red is the dominant colour in the mix and the other colours are mixed in by eye to mute it slightly and give it a more neutral sandy colour. The mix proportions are varied to use as shade and highlight, so there's more Bronze Flesh on the upper lit surfaces and more Black in the recesses.<br />For the green, that's a mix of Gold and Gunmetal with Goblin Green and a really cheap off-brand vivid sky-blue acrylic I got in a craft shop. Again, mixed by eye, then highlighted with some white mixed into that green mix.<br />When painting "materials" like this it's fun to work with whatever "looks right", so you can afford to make it a little messy, whatever looks like a naturalistic material.hekatoncheireshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03595960543578868367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4931394484614778088.post-28522027236996576482020-04-11T02:10:29.015+01:002020-04-11T02:10:29.015+01:00Dang, these are awesome!

I particularly like the champion with the Tyranid torso/ skink arms and the Flayed One with the scythe. <br /><br />Could you please share what paints/ colors you used for this project, particularly the brick red and oxidized green?
