Lannister Supremacy

Here is an update with focus on the basic paint scheme for this force, mostly so I don’t forget what I’ve done haha!

My version of the Lannister army uses Mephiston Red base or Blood Angels red Contrast as the primary red layer. I shade with either Agrax Earthshade or Carroburg Crimson depending on the model and neatness I’m after. Earthshade is an amazing shade for everything, but some figures demand a more clean look.

This is then layered with Mephiston Red and Evil Suns Scarlet, maybe even some traces of Tau Light Ochre for extreme highlights.

The yellow uses an old pot of Iyanden Darksun, maybe Averland yellow these days? It’s shaded with earthshade and relayered with base colour and Ushabti Bone. If I do Lannister hair I use fleshshade instead and do several mixes for the layers.

Metal pieces are simply done with Leadbelcher and Earthshade. The opulent gold details are painted with Retributor Armour and shade, sometimes pushed into Liberator gold and even some Stormhost Silver mixed in for imoportant pieces.

I use Abaddon Black and Dryad Bark for boots, belts and pants. It is shaded with Earthshade and reset with base colour, sometimes pushed further if needed, but it mostly never is. I like how it frames and enhances the Lannister red and gold.

Skin is done with Bugmans Glow and fleshshade and then layered with Cadian Fleshtone.
