Games Workshop - Citadel Colour Layer: Stormhost Silver (12ml) Paint

Product Information

I'm currently using GW Citadel metallic paints but they're running low and I need to re-up. I'm thinking of switching to the newer metallic paints. Most people use both terms and mean the same thing. But the difference between primer and spray paints is that “real” primers contain a solvent that creates a stronger bond with the surface of the miniature and thus provides better adhesion and higher resistance. Spray paints do not contain solvent, or less of it. The next image shows the first highlight of Pink Horror, and the second finer edge highlight of Emperor’s Children. Overall, I think that these are some really solid technical paints. They won't magically make all the gems perfect with a single application, but with a bit a finesse and extra work it gives a nice effect that is different from the standard way of painting gems.

The size of the metallic pigments is not as fine as for example Scale75 or Vallejo Mecha Color, however, in comparison to Scale75 Alchemy paints, The Army Painter’s metallic colours are much more sparkly and vibrant. Alchemy metallic paints from Scale 75 are more pastel in comparison, and even Green Stuff World can’t beat the vibrancy of the new metallic Warpaints. The opacity is alright, most of the new metallic Warpaints need about three to four thin coats for solid coverage. A little bit of shaking is required to prevent separating.

I did a video on the scheme when AoS 2nd edition first released, and it goes through my method in detail. All of them turned out great, but I am definitely not a fan of straight silver under the gemstone paints, even in this smaller scale. The gradient adds so much more depth, its not even comparable for me.Beanith: Let’s see if I can finally understand this. You’re telling me that with the recent launch of Warhammer Mortal Realms in the Land Downunder where I end up with a hundred Chainrasps for whom I have grand plans for, I didn’t actually end up with a bunch of Primaris Veterans in bathrobes to shove deep into my Pile of Shame Cairn of Opportunities waiting for the day I accidently start a Dark Angel army and I find myself needing a bunch of Primaris Veterans in bathrobes to tag along with my beloved biker/land speeder army which I will totally one day paint and it will be awesome and Greg and I will be the best of frie… ahem. There’s actually not a lot of information from GW itself on what the white caps mean, other that they are pricier. GW’s description for Retributor Armor, a white cap metallic paint, says: So, what do I think about these? I do like them, there are a few issues with them compared to the old way of doing things though. Tamiya paints come in acrylic or spray paint. The latter is terrific for a base coat as it’s unaffected by enamel or acrylic paints applied over it for finer detailing.

Ultramarines: The Ultramarines are known for their blue and silver color scheme, and Stormhost Silver is the perfect paint for highlighting the silver elements of the armor and weapons. Royal Purple: A rich and warm purple metallic. Can be mixed with Zephyr Pink to create warmer, more pinkish highlights, or Fairy Dust for more pastel highlights. The traditional answer to this has been to use lacquer/organic solvent based carriers for metallic paints. If you’ve ever experimented with Mr Color or Gaia Notes lacquer based metallic paint, or Tamiya Enamel based metallics, they offer a much cleaner and well formed metallic paint layer with low flake visibility. Using a piece of foam I sponged on some Stormhost Silver . I only did this on areas that would make sense for wear and tear, such as hard edges. This gives a nice worn look in a random pattern. Use this sparingly.

In place of the big fat babymen of AoS’ launch, we had these statuesque spearmen, chariots, and big honkin angel ladies. These models screamed “Ancient Greece” to me, and not just because I’m going through a Greekaboo phase with Goonhammer favorite Hades and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. I also wanted to get away from the typical blue and gold of the Hammers of Sigmar to really make this army my own. Green Stuff World produces a lot of interesting specialist paints, including fluorescent and “chameleon” colour-shifting paints. Now they expanded their paint range with a set of acrylic metallic paints, including coloured metallics like red, violet, green and blue. Non-toxic and suitable for both paint- and airbrush, they promise super-fine pigments, ultrahigh coverage power and fast drying times. In this review, we take a look at all 14 Metal Colors and see how they’ll stand up to the competition.

It’s then given an all-over wash of a 50/50 mix of Basilicanum Grey and Contrast Medium . Make sure this doesn’t dry in any weird pools. Why should I buy white cap Stormhost Silver? Runefang Steel is also a bright silver layer paint for 2/3 of the price?” And the same argument goes for Retributor Armor vs Auric Armor Gold, Fulgurite Copper vs Gehenna Gold and so on.Mix in a little more Warboss Green and layer up again, concentrating on raised areas where light would hit

Right, so with a new project, I decided to mix it up and try some with a Metallic undercoat and some with Grey Seer Undercoat. After that, I experimented with Contrast Iyanden Yellow versus T aimiya Gold Leaf and Retributor Gold to see what I liked best. Stormhost Silver paint from Citadel Colour is a great choice for painting a variety of Warhammer 40K Space Marine armies. Here are three specific armies that I would recommend painting with Stormhost Silver: Step 3: Sprinkle the barricade with coarse Kosher salt, putting more on the bottom half to make the end product have less paint near the floor and seem rustier

Some manufacturers even advertise a “real primer formula”, so make sure to read the product description. The “coloured” Citadel spray paints, however, are not real primers, so Games Workshop itself recommends applying a layer of “real” primer before applying spray paints like Mephiston Red spray. Next, I drybrushed the model with Leadbelcher . I only did this on certain areas, such as the face, the top half of limbs, and hands – sections that would have light hitting them. Think of this as a selective highlight instead of an all-over drybrush. The other important part with Iron Warriors is that they must be miserable. They have to be down in filthy, broken mud and toxic landscapes and the basing is essential to that. And toxic basing is easy and fun to do, you can really go wild with it. And with that, you should have everything you need to paint your Helbrecht like my Helbrecht. Don’t sweat it if you don’t have all the colors or missed that I didn’t saw how to paint the tiny heraldic shields on these four models in one. I left that as a treat, for you.
