Managed to put some layers on my Warlock on jetbike. The one cool thing about working with Eldar models is that I get to spend quite a lot of time with it since my army is quite tiny compared to my Tyranids. Once the basic colours were on, I started working on some shading.
After washing Ushabti Bone with Devlan Mud, I highlighted the carapace armour of the Warlock with Bleached Bone. |
Washed the underside with Devlan Mud after a few layers of Bleached Bone |
Painted in the gems to see the contrast. I also worked in the chevrons on the tips to see if it worked. I like it at the moment |
I find this really helps with my paint composition since I do not have a GW guide ready. On the subject of colour schemes, I have been struggling for the longest time. I want something unique for my army but I am not good with colours or art. I use references where I can.
Looking at the colour wheel, I noticed that my original colour scheme didn't quite work. I needed to have more bright green as an accent colour and a good complimentary colour would be Bleached Bone. Moving forward, I am using the following as a guide:
- Primary colour: Warlock Purple
- Secondary colour: Bleached Bone and Chaos Black
- Accent colour: Scorpion Green
- Chevron marks using Bleached Bone and Chaos Black where possible.
