A Lannister Always Paints His Armies
Lannister Guardsmen
Guardsmen unit
Individual figures
Individual figures, the Lloyd shotGuardsmen, the core fighting unit of the Lannister army. There’s two units in the starter set, and I started painting from these. The colour and technique choices here defined the whole project, for the rest of the army I stuck to the same pallette.
Primer and pre-shading:
I started off from black primer, airbrushed on. Considering the red and gold paint scheme, I did the pre-shade zenith with Vallejo Model Air Aged White. It’s an off white, creamy colour.
Red:
– Citadel Contrast Blood Angels Red
First time trying out the Contrast paints, I went with the Contrast Blood Angels Red. It’s absolutely fantastic paint, works well over the pre-shaded figures as I’m sure it does also for flat primer. I highlighted and shaded it a bit on characters and some individual models where I felt like it, but mostly the reds are just pre-shade and Contrast.
Gold:
my trusty trio of
– Vallejo Model Colour Ochre Brown
– Vallejo Model Colour Yellow Ochre
– Scale75 Tenere Yellow (or VMC Ice Yellow, which I ran out and replaced with S75)
Black:
– Contrast Black Templar
Armour:
– Black and Citadel Nuln Oil Shading
– Vallejo Model Colour Offwhite and Army Painter White for highlights.
Skin:
Either
– Army Painter Barbarian Flesh
– Citadel Contrast Guilliman Flesh
– Highlights: AP Barbarian flesh with VMC Deck Tan.
Leathers:
– Army Painter Leather Brown
– Citadel Agrax Earthshade wash
– AP Leather Brown mixed with VMC Deck Tan for the models I bothered to highlight.
