Brush Tips: Dark Angels Saturnine armour

September 2025·p. 106

THE SHORT VERSION

Ben differentiates Dark Angels black with a subtle green tint applied by airbrush over zenithal highlighting. Red checks, weapons and warm base colours reinforce the First Legion’s identity. Green-grey edge highlights retain that hue while keeping the armour recognisably black.
