Hello painting hive mind!

I'm planning to paint some Goliath gangers with a red-y/brown, almost terracotta armour.

Can I get some Citadel paint recommendations to achieve this affect?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I'm going to disagree with XV-88 and suggest Tuskgor Fur or Doombull Brown instead.

Hmm, looks like the ol' paint range compatibility chart needs updating there methinks....

Vallejo German red brown primer - it's a brush on primer, but it's very smooth and a nice reddish color.

I prefer to buy from miniature manufacturers that *don't* support the overthrow of democracy.

Complete disagree, xv88 is a yellow umber, doom bull brown is what you want, perhaps over rhinox brown, with squig orange highlights.

Did you read the thread? Don't blame me for taking what the Dakka paint chart says in good faith.

We've already covered it. The chart needs updating.
