Hello!
Anyone have an idea on how the black on this Scythe of the Emperor Space Marine was highlighted?
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/236027.page#659603
It looks great, and I'd love to attempt to emulate it on my about to be started Raven Guard force.
Thanks!

Looks to me like chaos black with regal blue highlights. Real thin highlights, by the look of it.

Right from black to Regal Blue?
No type of grey as a 'base highlight' for the Regal Blue?

It might just be a trick of the light, but there certainly seems to be some shade of blue in the highlights...

It does look bluer than shadow grey, but not by much. I doubt you could get results looking anywhere close to that with regal blue.. do they still make Festering Blue? Unless I'm mixing up my old hexagonals, that used to be just a bit bluer than shadow grey.
Best of luck in any case.. good looking blacks are always a challenge!

Luna - no, not yet!
I'm going to get my Ork horde up and running first...
But no worries, when I eventually get to painting, I'll post here!
