When you open up the book onto the first page there is a picture of 3 armies. One is catachan, one is valhalla and the other tallern desert raiders.

The catachan tanks are dark angels green but what is the yellowish camoflourge colour?

Also, what colours did they use to paint the catachan guardsmen skin?

Thanks

does anyone know? lol

It probably wont matter, the color they prbably used bck then, have been dscontinued or replaced...then again idk...

Dam, it looks prefect for catachan.

The yellowish color was a mixture of Bubonic Brown/Vomit Brown.

You can get the same effect by using Tausept Ochre straight out of the pot, however.

The Catachan Guardsman flesh was generally done like this:
Prime Black-->Basecoat with Snakebite Leather-->Add a 25/75 mixture of Snakebite Leather and Dwarf Flesh-->Highlight with straight Dwarf Flesh.

You can get the same effect a bit easier now by basecoating with Khemri Brown or Snakebite Leather(either/or) and then using Tallarn Flesh highlighting with Dwarf Flesh.

thanks

also, does highlight mean just paint the big muscles or the whole arm?
