Skilgannan Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Hi people, I'm going to be starting a 30k Salamanders legion in three weeks time. At this time I just have a quick question about painting them. What sort of green does everyone use? Many Thanks Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I use a muted green, other people run the GW bright green scheme. For my scheme I use: FW Nocturne Green base, FW Vulkan Green layer, wash with Biel tan green, highlight with straken green then, nurgling green, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlson793 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 When I'm painting 30K Salamanders, I usually go with a base coat of metal ('silver' or 'bronze', depending on what I'm going for), followed by numerous washes of Biel-tan Green.
