Hello All,

I am an old 40k player dipping his toes back into the hobby. I have a Sternguard Veteran squad I would like to paint up as Brazen Claws to get a battle force going. However, I have no idea where to start on the paint scheme. It is worth noting that I have never been a great painter but I want to take my time and try to do these guys right. I have been watching tutorial videos like they are going out of style. I am particularly impressed with Lester Bursley's work - found here: https://www.youtube.com/user/awesomepaintjob/video

But back to the Brazen Claws, has anybody painted up these guys and would you mind sharing your paint list?

I assume I would start with a white underbase and the base colors will be:

- Kantor Blue

- Mephiston Red

After this very basic start I get lost. Any idea on decent shades/layers/washes/highlights?

Any and all input is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Recon - thank you sir!!!

 

Did the e book happen to mention a final wash, over the entire model, that might bring both colors together after the edge highlighting or dry-brushing?

 

So how would you guys approach the painting the armour with these colors? 

Bases first obviously, then shade/wash over the entire model, then edge highlights with the layers? Would you suggest another layer with 50/50 Mephiston Red/Wild Rider red and 50/50 Kantor Blue/Lothern Blue on the respective areas?
