Kings Martial paint scheme notes

in

Undercoat of matt black

Airbrush with Phoenician purple.
Xenthial highlight with:
Chemos Purple
50:50 Chemos Purple: Game Colour Warlock Purple, with some flow improver

As above but a few drops of white in half a cup

Note: this gives a brighter look than my original Kings Martial models, but the Leviathan boxed set contents are a pretty close match (bikes, Bladeguard).

Shade with purple shade paint (Druchii Violet) in the recesses 

Highlight with Warlock Purple and two Warlock Purple/white mixes —  A) approx 2:1 and B) 1:2. Warlock Purple is used to highlight the darker areas.
For other parts, which are already Warlock Purple, use A) as a fairly chunky highlight, then edge highlight with B).
