Everyone tells me that yellow it a bitch to paint. I didn’t find it too bad until I started to use a brush. airbrush was fine (and I am not experienced in airbrushing) but normal brush to correct mistakes etc was just pain.

I started with Halfords grey primer and then used 3 different citadel yellows. 2 through the airbrush (and touch up by brush) and 1 as an edge highlight by brush.

I used vallejo negro through the airbrush to create the black lines. Id used regular painters masking tape to mask it off. it worked a treat. I might have to get some more Vallejo paints to try them out through the brush as there was no mucking about with it. dreamy.

I then weathered with typhus corrosion and agrax earth shade. one of my favourite steps for vehicles.

The riders were done using basic scheme for the rest of the new army (karak stone, basilican grey and administratum grey).

For this Twi’lek I tried to go different yet again, didn’t work out as well as I had hoped. I wanted a pale lilac (see left figure below) but i think I went too bright white, or didn’t start off lilac enough. I used palid witch flesh with a purple wash as a base and highlighted up from there.
