Does anyone know how to achieve the stone effect the Eavy Metal team does on the stone bits of the new Dark Angel Models?



The stone angel here, and the shields of the Deathwing Knights are examples.

I don't have GW paints, but if you watch buy painted something like that. Dunno what paints your using so use the DAKKADAKKA colour conversion chart if its not your paint range.

But you asked for it on gw model so ill give gw colours :3
charadon granite
codex gray
fortress gray


if thats to dark for the base do codex gray + black 50/50.

Thanks! Any idea on the actual technique as well?

Rather long, but seems like it could get you a similar effect. Check out the preview shot near the start to see if it's the kind of thing you want to do.
