Hey guys,

I seem to have some difficulties painting the guns of my minis. I tried grey undercoat, black wash and drybrush with a lighter grey, but I don't think it fits with my painting style on the bodies.
My main problem are the colours I think. I only use black and grey, and it all seems so flat/dull. The official paint schemes seem to have some browns and blues etc. Can someone help me achieving this painting technique, as I have no idea how to begin. If anyone knows a tutorial on guns you can also link it to me. I didn't find any in the tut archive :/ (but I'm so good at searching :p)

According to his blog, it's just black -> basalt grey -> white.

Whenever I paint fire arms I usually just to it black and then selectively paint edge highlight certain details with a metal tone

There's a tutorial about painting infinity weapons in BOLS.

Also it seems that painting infinity figures with metallic paints is evil and banned.
