To get him looking like that I would:

+ prime/undercoat him white
+ do a nice thin coat of Karak Stone (or some other light tan/brown colour) over the armour sections that will be greeny brown
+ do a thin wash with bel-tan green wash over the bits painted above
+ do a thin wash of nuln oil, using a wet, clean brush to clean the black wash off the flat surfaces and concentrate it in the recesses of the armour - use a clean dry brush (or tissue) to suck up any excess black wash/water as it pools
+ when dry do a thin wash of agrax earthshade wash over the top of the green
+ Paint the metal bits with ironbreaker (or another mid darkness silver colour), then lightly wash with nuln oil when dry
+ Paint the bone bits with the bone coloured paint, then wash fairly heavily (or several times) with alternating washes of earthshade and sepia


The rest you should probably be able to figure out quite easily. If you want any more suggestions though, just ask.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5554541.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5554541.page GMT Re:Typhus herald of Nurgle http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5554576.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5554576.page GMT Typhus herald of Nurgle http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5554588.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5554588.page GMT Typhus herald of Nurgle

Ok, so I got him the other day and I'm ready to paint him, but does know exactly what colors it shows on the blister pack he's painted in? I want him that exact color. lol.


Ok, that's not going to happen. See, the model was painted before the new paints came out. And even then, the 'Evy Metal team mixes paints and don't necessarily paint straight out of the pot. Additionally, they don't always use GW paint. In older (last 4 years) issues of White Dwarf, you could see Vallejo paint in the background of the studio when they took pics.
SilverMK2's paint suggestion sounds like it'll get you pretty close to what you're looking for, though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5556745.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5556745.page GMT Typhus herald of Nurgle

I guess as long as it's close I can't complain too much then. lol]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5556793.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/523694/5556793.page GMT
