After a bit of digging around on google i refound the fire warrior painting template and this is what i came up with!

This is based on a personal colour choice. (I dont like following the paint schemes in the Codexes)Gives it the personal touch to me


Dark Blue is Necron Abyss

Light Blue could be Icy Blue

Grey is meant to represent boltgun metal

Yellow is to represent maybe Shining Gold, or the other Gold(cant remember the name lol)

Red bits are Blood Red to be nice and bright

The black should be obvious lol

Need a lil help with the browns tho

so comments and thought are appreciated

Moradin Brown maybe?

unfortunately cannot find it on the GW site to give a rough colour indication

was thinkin maybe Dark Flesh as its quite dark, and dont want the brown too bright because of the Icy Blue

Snakebite Leather could also work, just add some Black for the lower leg parts

Bestial Brown

Ment to say this, I have switched to a different brand of paint and I have a hard time keeping any names in order.

yea, bestial brown would work, pretty similar to snakebite leather on their site lol

edit: already have bestial brown in my collection so bestial brown it is

haha, paint you already have is the best color to use!

so glad i didnt throw out the paint and begin from scratch lol 4 of the colours iv got atm could do with a mix to be properly useable again

just the blues and the gold i need to buy, tht and the washes

(I did try Googling this but came up with nowt)

Cheers matey

np ill always help a fellow Dakkie if i can

hope you have fun with it, i know i could spend hours thinkin up colour schemes


its actually quite annoying knowing what i want to do but cant due to the fact i have only some of the paints in front of me

Ok so now that i have decided i am going with this colour scheme, could any1 advise what washes i should use??

for a fairly dark wash, you can't go wrong with gryphonne sepia

Thanks for the reply albeit a bit late since i have moved onto another army for now.

Well, there you have it then - asked and... answered?
