Painting Question: Palanite Enforcers

September 2021·p. 7

THE SHORT VERSION

A practical response supplies recipes for the distinctive armour and clothing of Palanite Enforcers. Controlled shading and increasingly pale highlights separate the cool uniform from warmer details, offering a repeatable approach for a gang rather than a palette guessed from the finished photographs.

Paint Splatter: Sons of the Wolfspear – Classic Style

Cool grey armour, black equipment and warm red details establish the Chapter’s restrained palette. A precise recess wash preserves clean light panels, while different highlight colours distinguish armour and weapons; the guide recommends finishing darker areas before the final pale edges to simplify corrections.

Paint Splatter: Sons of the Wolfspear – Contrast Style

Apothecary White over Corax White produces a quick pale-grey warrior, with controlled brush strokes determining where the deepest shading settles. Contrast leather and fur demonstrate the same principle on organic textures, while the discussion of bases explains how warm ground can offset the cool armour.
