Ask ’Eavy Metal

THE SHORT VERSION

The returning painting clinic turns readers’ questions into worked examples for power weapons, Chapter armour, Eldar colours, living and necrotic skin, tarnished metal and elaborate banners. Each answer pairs practical colour stages with an explanation of the effect, from reserving the brightest energy highlights for a focal point to keeping weathering washes local enough that a metallic model remains readable. A final banner gallery shows the same principles in finished standards from several game ranges.
