Hi people. I need help to determine the correct colour method to recreate the following effect on a miniature.



I must precise something first : I am a big fan of dry brushing and I generally avoid layering (my hand shake way too much for that).

So here's how I think I'll do it :

1-First the base colour of the armor (the base, shade and dry).
Base : Kantor Blue.
Shade : Drakenhof Nightshade.
Dry : Chronus Blue

2-Then the trims (just base and shade).
Base : Retributor armor.
Shade : Agrax Earthshade.

3-Skin ans skulls (base, shade, dry).
Base : Rakarth Flesh.
Shade : Nuln Oil.
Dry : Tyrant Skull.

4-Cape and other red parts.
Base : Khorne red.
Shade : Carroburg Crimson.
Dry : Astorath red.

5-Metal effect.
Base : Leadbelcher.
Shade : Nuln Oil (gloss).
Dry : Necron Compound.
