I've recently started work on a Daemon army for the PCRC's Tale of Eight Gamers project. Rather than the traditional green Nurgle Daemon skin that you often see, I wanted to try some more fleshy tones - well, rotting fleshy tones.
The formula I used is below. It uses Citadel paints unless specified otherwise.
- Army Painter 'Leather Brown' undercoat
- Tanned Flesh drybrush
- Tallern Flesh drybrush
- Elf Flesh drybrush
- Details*
- Devlan Mud wash (covering skin and details)
- Leviathan Purple wash (covering skin and details)
- Desert Yellow and Skull White on eyes
* And for the details...
- Dwarf Bronze on all metal
- Tentacle Pink on tounges, guts and open wounds
- Adeptus Battlegrey on horns, teeth and claws
- Scorched Brown on all wood and leather straps, bandages, etc
- Adeptus Battlegrey followed by Skull White drybrush on all trophy skulls
It's not the best of even the quickest technique, but it allowed me to paint 500 points to a good tabletop standard in an afternoon, so I hope that someone might find it useful!
