Here are the mighty Talabecland Royals!
I already explained in this post the source of the name and choice, in a nutshell, they are based on the real GFL Team of the Potsdam Royals and the Warhammer city I have chosen for them is Talabecland.
For this team I decided to pick quite a challenging colour scheme based on red and bright yellow. This is not common for me and to top it all I used white basecoat, which is also not common. All in all it was a headache to paint but at least I am happy with the end result.
Here are the colours used and the recipe.
For gold areas, use Bloodstone as base, then mix it slowly with higher percentage of Scrofulous Brown. Final highlights mixing in a little bit of Ice Yellow. Some dots of Arctic White for reflections.
Metal parts are done with Neutral Grey as base, then mixing in Wolf Grey for the highlights and German Grey for the shadows. Reflections and extreme lights are done with Arctic White and Ivory.
Ribbons are painted with Germany Grey, edge highlighted with Wolf Grey and final lights with Magic Blue.
For the skin, I use Beige red as base and mix more pale flesh to it for highlights.
Leather is done with Chocolate brown as base, then adding Beige red to the mix for highlights. Scratches and different shades of light are done with Beige and mixing in Bone white.
Yellow cloth is done painting Scrofulous Brown as base on top of white basecoat, and Ice Yellow lights on top of it.
Red armour is base coated with Burnt red, highlighted with burnt red mixed with flat red and final higlights mixing in Orange fire. Reflections are done with Ice Yellow and in some cases Arctic White.
