Painting Guide for Seraphon Saurus Warriors with Contrast Paints

The new Saurus Warriors look great, and as you can probably guess from my previous posts we have a burgeoning Seraphon army, and so there was no way these weren’t going to get added!

Super fun to paint and get done and heres my recipe card :)

Method

1. Base coat in Grey Seer (I use Colour Forge Sprays, Ghoul Grey for a reasonable match)
2. Coat pretty much everything except the metal bits in a 3:1 mix of Contrast Medium and Terradon Turquoise
3. Cover all the skin (not the scales!) in Terradon Turqoise
4. For all the metallic bits, go over them in Leadbelcher
5. I wanted them gold, so then I use Nazdreg Yellow over the Leadbelcher to make a gold colour
6. To make some interesting patterns, I then went over some of the raised gold bits with Liberator Gold and went over some of the depressed gold bits with Agrax Earthshade. This was to provide some contrasting colours in some of the larger metallic areas, like the weeapon or the shield
7. For the central spine spikes and thhe spikes on the edge of the head, I used Sigvald Burgundy. On the head spikes especially, I sort of feathered where the Burgundy and previous colour met.
8. I then edge highlighted the Burgundy with Slaanesh Grey
9. For the teeth and claws, I first tidied up any of the areas I needed with Grey Seer, then put down a coat of Skeleton Horde
10. Last but not least, in the mouth and tongue I used Volupus Pink

These were super fun models to paint and doing them this way I got through 10 pretty quickly and they still look interesting on the table :)
