Cool, I particularly like the paintjob on Njall. The base especially stands out. I think I'll be subbing in some hotter colors for what I have in mind.

I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

Other than that, another quality tutorial from you, Cat. If I ever need to do glowy stuff on my Eldar and Menoth I'll try and see if I can do it while changing the colours.
thanks again catt ive been looking for this when i start either a chaos warrior, alpha legion, or fallen angel army im sure i can use this type of glow with other primary colors

This is awesome! This scheme looks like it would work pretty well for Fantasy Dwarfs as well and I've been looking for a good tutorial in that area. Thanks a lot!

Awesome! If i were to try this on my Necrons, do you think snot green as rune base then highlight scorpion green then add skull white would do the trick?

Thanks guys, Bloodaxegit, I would think that would look very cool, just try it out on a piece of sprue and see how it turns out before you apply it to a model!

Interesting, you use a similar paint scheme for your SW armour as myself...though to be honest, I am suprised that it is not more common, given that it was featured in the 3rd edition SW codex as well as the coresponding WD article.
I like how you start by painting on paper to give viewers a large scale view of building up the highlights; a pitty you didn't have a model available to paint as well.
I'll have to try out the rune method you published when I start back on my SW. Should be fun.
you sound just like my best friends cousin who is from the Fargo North Dakota area, and his Mom lives in Canada. Like almost exactly, I had to listen again

I'm both orderly and rational. I value control, information, and order. I love structure and hierarchy, and will actively use whatever power or knowledge I have to maintain it. At best, I am lawful and insightful; at worst, I am bureaucratic and tyrannical.
