Introduction

Hi,
I just bought my first Warmachine models some weeks ago. I decided to paint my Cryx jacks with an alternative theme, because I don't like the 'offical' theme very much. I chose bone as my main colour and some corroded bronze and rusted metal to other parts. I painted first one deathripper, and I was pretty pleased on the result. When I was starting to paint the second one, my brother asked me to make a step by step on it. I took many photos to make the tutorial easy to follow.
Result can be seen here.

I assume you can do blending. If you don't, look at the CMoN articles page, there's lot of blending tutorials. I also assume you have basic knowledge about NMM(non-metallic metals).

I suppose you to use wet pallette, because you have to mix paints much.

Here's how I made it.


Pre-painting:

Before painting or assembling, I removed the mould lines and washed the parts. Then I assembled it. The base were made of cork. It wasn't really hard, I just cut some parts of a cork board and cracked them with my fingers and glued them on the base with super glue. Finally I primed it with grey spray.

Great tutorial, thanks for taking the time to help out. The only thing I would add is some rust pigments to help bring out the corrosion effects. Again, thanks.
