Grey Knights
The next stage was to highlight the gold areas and once dry and give these gold areas a wash of chestnut ink
One of the Grey Knights seemed to have deformed shoulder pad, so I have stuck a Forgeworld purity seal to cover the poor casting.
At this point I do think they are too shiny...
My original colour scheme for the Grey Knights in my Daemonhunters army was done as follows:
Black undercoat
Chainmail base coat
Thinned blue ink wash
Mithril highlights
However I was not happy with the results which looked too shiny.
Though I had followed the painting guide in the Codex there was one difference, I had used Chainmail and the guide recommended Boltgun metal. My local store had sold out of Boltgun, but I managed to get a pot the other day from a GW store and had a go at re-painting the Grey Knights and was much happier with the results.
They are now not as shiny but look more metallic.
I have also painted the wax seals on the purity seals, these were Scorched Brown witha red highlight.
I then painted the parchment of the purity seals with Bleached Bone, but I am not too happy with the result, so I will probably redo them. I also based the models using GW sand (this will be painted and drybrushed).
I have also received some reinforcements in the shape of the boxed set.
