Hi,
So today I painted my first Emperor's Children Legionary, following a paint scheme I found on the internet
(unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the author, I can't credit him).
I can't find the page anymore, and I don't remember how he did the highlights on the power armor.
How would you highlight the power armor ?
I thought about grey, or purple.
The power armor is leadbelcher and then several layers of druchii purple.
Thanks !

Hey mate, not bad at all!

For edge highlighting that I reckon a light silver (like runefang steel) just on the edges that look like they catch the most light, should be good.

Good advice !
I used quick silver from privateerpress (formula p3); I bought it, a long, long, time ago and never used it.
I finally discovered how to used it^^
This is how he looks now:

Makes all the difference mate!
What do you plan to do with the base?? As a minimum I'd look into some games workshop technical type paints, or make your own (mix sand into a brown paint you like the shade of).

Thanks for your help !
I don't know, maybe urban, or space ship / industrial.
But, unfortunately, all my marines are already glued to their base, so I'm afread they will look like as if they were "sinking" in their base after I add sand, etc
