Hi all,
So my wife has the older 3rd edition daemonettes minis (the topless ones). She has painted their skin elf flesh, the claws and hair warlock purple, and the cloth teal. They need a wash in order to bring out the detail. My question is, what color would you suggest I wash them in to get the best result. Any Ideas appreciated.

Thanks Dakka!

The claws skin and hair might work with either red or purple washes. The teal might benefit from a mix of watered down green and blue.

That might help then highlights if needed.

I'd do a purple wash over the whole thing, since that's a nice Slaaneshy color. Should tie everything together, might take more than 1 coat of wash to get the look you like.

Try a wash of Baal Red on the skin. Then give it a highlight of a 1:1 mix of Elf FLesh and Bleached Bone, followed by a highlight of Bleached Bone. The cloth could be washed with Thraka Green. The hair could be washed with Badab Black.
