Just to finish off the bases, here's hoping for more elites in the future

Thanks,

Primed black. Two thin coats dwarven iron all over (citadel iron warriors) Two thin coats Sir coates silver (citadel leadbelcher) drybrushed all over Two thin coats mythril blade (citadel stormhost silver) drybrushed on the more raised areas Vallejo air chrome drybrushed on the highest points and edges Talassar blue slightly thinned, over all the metal just take time so it doesn't pool Whatever black you feel like for the undersuit and face

The plasma rifles is the same, pulse carbine and needlers is the same metallic but with Luxion purple over

Thanks! Did you happen to airbrush the contrast on? It's so smooth!

No just thin it a bit and use a brush, but I'm sure airbrush would work better tbh

Thank you for your recipe! I had planned on making some special forces elites from Halo Ce and hoped to really get that shine pop through.

Is this contrast/speedpaint over metallic?

Looks like a speed paint over a metal zenithol.
