Paint It Black: The Raven Guard

June 2019·p. 63

THE SHORT VERSION

James Karch chooses a colder reflective black than the Black Legion scheme. A brown recess wash contrasts with blue-grey edges to give the armour depth, while red shoulder trim connects it to the warm bases and keeps the dark silhouette readable.

Readers’ Models: Mark Korogiannis

Mark’s Nurgle collection shows how bright undercoats, thin layers and careful shading can make diseased models both vivid and richly detailed. He explains the appeal of the older Chaos books and stresses patient attention even on gaming pieces, with tutorials and diluted shading continuing to improve his work after decades of painting.

Tobias Tebring’s Ironjawz

Tobias imagines Ironjawz from arid deserts, combining drab metal with a restrained skin treatment. Pale green flesh shaded with a diluted green wash and warmed around the extremities makes the orruks look natural within their harsh surroundings while remaining quick to reproduce.

Dankhold Troggboss

Mark combines fungi from Mollog and the Dankhold kits with a cavern base carved from one piece of balsa wood. New Contrast paints quickly establish purple skin, warm ground and pale skulls, showing how a textured monster and an imaginative scenic setting can reward a direct painting method.
