See how I turn this into a three color army.

This is a great article. I really like the almost stage by stage setup you got going there.

Maybe you could expand on the techniques you used while painting, like the strokes used etc... but other than that I can't think of much more to add.

In an unrelated note I do wish that I had people in my area or LGS that played WM, it looks very cool!

Thanks. I'd need a tripod to pull that off.

This was mostly in response to a Beasts of War Tutorial that I thought spent too
much time on a single model. You see a lot of unpainted stuff in warmachine and I
want to encourage them to try painting rather than let volume/lack of success
keep them back.

I like it. Good job. One question though. I use Army Painter Quik Dip cut with paint thinner. This helps the stuff run off the model in places I do not want it and shade were I do. Have you given any thought to it? It would make them look even better with little effort.

Fantastic article Malfred, thanks for writing this up and sharing the process with us!

Awesome article Manfred! I always wondered what exactly 3 color meant, now I know, and you showed some neat methods to paint it!

I haven't tried it, and I don't know if I will. I rather like the effect of Vallejo inks and
they go on so easily. I use actual furniture stains for my terrain, though.

Lol, you of all people probably don't need this tutorial.

starbomber: I can't tell if you're messing with me or not. I always thought three color
was understood, I was just thinking of an easy way to get it done without painting
three dots on the model somewhere (yes, I'm told someone did that before).
