Hi guys
recently I stumble upon this from The Anvilarium on Facebook (check him out! he;s a cool dude who's building a Pre Heresy Iron Hands!)

IRON HANDS COLOUR SCHEME
1. Undercoat the model with GW black undercoat spray
2. Drybrush layers of Rub and Buff Pewter to blend up from black to silver. with the silver parts being the most raised areas.
3. A small amount of Tamiya Clear Yellow was added to Tamaiya Smoke and this was airbrushed over the whole model and the model was then left to dry.
4. GW Druchi Violet was then airbrushed over the model in random patches.
5. Tamaiya Clear Green was then airbrushed in patches over the previous two colours.
6. The whole model was airbrushed with a layer of thinned down Tamaiya Smoke and the model was then left to dry.
7. The model was then protected with a coating of GW Purity Seal.

Brass
1. Basecoat with GW Runelord Brass;
2. Wash with GW Agrax Earthshade;
3. Highlight with GW Runelord Brass in striking motions to create a chipped and weathered appearance.

Lenses
1. Basecoat GW Kantor Blue
2. Highlight GW Caledor Sky
3. Paint a thin line of GW Lothern Blue at the bottom of the lens
4. Paint a dot of white in the upper corner of the lens

This is supposed to be the recipe Forgeworld uses to paint their Iron Hands model


Have fun!
