Night Lords by Mage updated 29/10/19 Forgefiend Update
Entry 19: Orangey-Yellow Plasma Glow
Since Night Lords are a dark blue I didn’t want to go with the typical turquoise or light blue traditionally seen on Plasma Guns. I wanted something warmer to contrast and offset the dark blue power armour.
I checked the ever handy Warhammer TV on Facebook and hybridised these two videos together for what I was aiming to achieve.
Two thin ish coats of Jokaero Orange
A coat of Macharius Orange. This is an out of production paint. Just use a more orangey Orange of your choice. Troll Slayer Orange would be fine 
Do a wash of either Seraphim Sepia or Reikland Fleshshade. They give different effects but it’s just a shade and whichever you have on hand or prefer works
Highlight the coils with orange from stage two as per the Plasma Gun video above from the Warhammer TV video: different colours but same technique 
Highlight the coils with Averland Sunset. Again use the technique from the video 
Do a final highlight with Flash Gitz yellow or yriel yellow, it just needs to be lighter or brighter than the previous paint, continuing the technique from the coils as per the above linked videoHere are the finished results on two models. The Plasma effect on the Obliterators are complete but the models overall are not done. Below are examples of finished models with finished Plasma effects.
I’m very happy with this one. Note that it’s a recycled picture from a previous entry, reused as a reference example. It is relevant, after all. 
This one could have turned it better. It looks better in person though 
Nice work my good fellow. I have really enjoyed your blog so far and the work you have put into it. Keep it up 🙂
Thanks @beardragon14 I’m glad you like the blog and thanks for the compliment. Feel free to post, comment or ask anything ?
It’s weird having close to 200 recommendations but few comments haha. I’m hoping to do the rest of the plasma tutorial tomorrow and tear into the Obliterators
