Skaven Paint Swatches: Fur, Skin and Equipment

November 2024·pp. 88–89

THE SHORT VERSION

Four fur variants begin from Rakarth Flesh and use glazes, recess shading and mixed highlights to create related but distinct rat colours. Tail and ears receive a pinker treatment, while skin, iron, chainmail and two sorts of wood retain a subdued shared palette. The recipes distinguish textures without abandoning the desaturated foundation that unifies an army.
