Had a crack with the new Imperial Fists contrast today, so bloody easy I'm going for a 7th legion heresy army, even easier when I get it through the airbrush. Done in 1 coat. Also think it's a substitute for Lamenters Yellow, I cannot understate how good this paint is. Targor Rageshade or Bezerker Bloodshade (both good, I think it's down to taste, I prefer the purple tone of Rageshade) also really make that armour look good. If you want to stick with Agrax, the OG is better than ever in the new formulation. I've switched to Vallejo through an airbrush but all hail the mighty Halfords matte black! I started my test model from black and a base coat of mournfang brown. Always start with black.

I know you are going for certain look, but a couple extra steps would IMHO really help. 1- using white ink in the air brush to highlight the panels before applying the yellow. 2- gloss varnish and oil wash will really make the panel lining crisper and can start the weathering process.

Got a question for any Contrast paint users. Because I have very little experience with contrast paints. But I got the Age of Darkness box and a Kratos with the intention of painting them Imperial Fist colours. This tutorial looks great, and easy. So I'm happy to do this method on my tanks. But for ease and to save time on my troops, I was planning on maybe trying the new Imperial Fist Yellow contrasts. But What I don't know is, how good are contrast paints on larger models like tanks? If its crap on tanks, I don't want to change my painting style from my tanks to my troops. Would rather stay consistent over the whole army. So if as I suspect, the contrasts aren't as good on large flat surfaces, I think I may do this method on all of my Imperial Guard. If contrasts are fine on tanks, I may do it that way. Anyone used contrast on tanks who can recommend it or not?
@chetmanley18852 жыл бұрын
You can use it on tanks but you've really got to take your time. Imperial Fists isn't like Iyanden Yellow, if it pools it doesn't turn orange but it can still pool. Honestly I think it's worth getting an airbrush, a cheap one will make using the contrast a doddle across the whole army.
