An ancient Remembrancer sketch from Carpinius' Speculum Historiale depicting Primarch Corvus Corax. If you don’t feel like paying the prices for contrast paints, the new Green Stuff World offering might be right up your alley. They have 24 different colors, and each comes in a 60ml dropper bottle, so it’s pretty hard to beat right off the bat.

Corvus corax is the Linnaean binomial species name for the common raven. function getStyleX(obj,styleProp){if(obj.currentStyle){var y=obj.currentStyle[styleProp];}else if(window.getComputedStyle)var y=window.getComputedStyle(obj,null)[styleProp];return y;} Celestra Grey: This is a light grey color that works well as a highlight color over Corax White. It’s a subtle way to add some depth to your models.

Step 2. Shading

Wash your brushes a lot, as the high-pigmented paint will easily creep up into the ferrule of your brush. Now the model I’ll be showing is the matching lion to the one pictured above. So simply begin by priming the model Corax White.

Step 1. Basecoats

Actually, you don’t necessarily need Games Workshop’s Grey Seer and Wraithbone primers – in fact, any light basecoat will do. I successfully tested Corax White or Matt White Color Primer from The Army Painter. The outnumbered Loyalists were then surrounded and brutally butchered. Refusing to surrender, the remaining Raven Guard and Salamanders Astartes stubbornly defended themselves, trying to hold off the inevitable slaughter for as long as possible. Though they suffered an atrocious number of casualties, the Loyalists managed to hold their own, until the Primarchs Mortarion of the Death Guard and Angron of the World Eaters joined the fray. Bolstered by the support of the infamous Imperator-class Titan Dies Irae, the Traitors killed tens of thousands of Loyalist Astartes. At the height of the massacre the Warmaster Horus entered the fray, at the head of the elite Sons of Horus Terminators known as the Justaerin, slaughtering the Loyalists in wrathful anger. Personally, I feel Guilliman Flesh produces rather stark results (as do the Fyreslayer Flesh and Darkoath Flesh from my experience). Fine for very muscular and animated faces, but I guess I’d prefer Reikland Fleshshade for the softer shading. Two coats of Reikland Fleshshade are pretty close to a single layer of Guilliman Flesh.

Contrast paints were really hot when they first came out. Now with other companies improving and tweaking the formulas, things are changing. Especially with the recent price increase, people have been looking for alternatives. However, they are still a favorite of many people out there. Cover the parts of the model that will end up white in Apothecary White Contrast paint. Like with all Contrast paints try and keep your brush strokes in the same general direction to help avoid streaking and pooling. Use the brush to soak up any puddles that form at the lower parts of the miniature. I also applied a mix of Darkoath Flesh Contrast Paint and Contrast Medium 1:1 to the face so the two colours could dry at the same time. Obviously, Grey Seer is the more grey primer, Wraithbone is a bright tan, and Corax Whiteis the purest white you’ll find among the paints. function findPosX(obj){var curleft=curtop=0,scr=obj,fixed=false;while((scr=scr.parentNode)&&scr!=document.body){curleft-=scr.scrollLeft To some, the appearance of the miners within solar minutes of the young primarch attaining consciousness speaks of greater powers at work. Whatever the truth, the primarch was taken in by the slaves and hidden from the mine's cruel overseers. Under the iron watch of heavily armed guards, the enslaved inhabitants of Lycaeus, who included criminals, political opponents and workers who had simply failed to meet their quotas, had long provided the rulers of Kiavahr with a free and unlimited source of manpower. As with many of the primarchs, Corax matured in a preternaturally short span of time, the phenomenon serving to confirm the slaves' belief that he represented a great gift to their people. It was they who named him, using their word for "saviour" or "deliverer" in anticipation of future deeds.Revealed on June 13th, 2022, new Citadel Contrast and colors paints are here! There are a lot of new Citadel colors; however, we think a lot of folks were looking for something a bit different.
