Games Workshop Warhammer Citadel Layer Ushabti Bone

Product Information

And that’s it for the skin. Seriously. The drybrushed highlights also help a bunch with the next step. Put Flesh Tearers Red contrast on fur, hair, and anywhere you want gore. I usually coat the hands, feet, mouth, and the occasional elbow or knee. Bone details get Ushabti Bone, Skeleton Horde Contrast, and highlights of Ushabti Bone and Screaming Skull. The bottom edges of the muscles were thinly lined with Stonewall Grey for a bounce reflection/ environmental light. I decided to paint my Fellgor Ravagers Beastmen with a variety of skin tones, but tie the Kill Team together with the colour of the equipment. Pale Skin The next and most important step is the skin, which is a thinned Aethermatic Blue contrast paint. I start with a 5:3 ratio (5 parts Contrast Medium, 3 Aethermatic Blue) and do a few coats rather than one single coat. I find that thinning and doing smaller, lighter layers enables me to better control the contrast paint, and avoids making the models a bit too “blue” in the process. While I wouldn’t say things can go “wrong” here (as long as you like them!), these two models show a bit of the learning curve I had on thinning the paints. The first Crypt Horror below was without thinning the contrast, while the Crypt Flayer used a multi-coat approach. Both look good, but one looks a lot more “blue” while the other evokes an “icy”, “cool” feeling, which is what I wanted. Hopefully I’ve given you some ideas on ways you can paint skulls and bone for your miniatures. You can certainly follow this exactly, use a combination of these techniques, or just use them as a guide and create your own method.

mix of Basalt Grey and Vallejo Game Color Stonewall Grey. This was put mostly in the top half of areas and more upward facing angles. (center right) Cadian Fleshtone– This paint is a flesh-tone color that can be used to paint the skin of miniatures, it can be used as a base coat and then highlighted and shaded with other paint colors to bring more depth and realism to your miniatures. Troll Slayer Orange: an orange color that can provide complementary contrast to the warmth of Ushabti Bone. The capture chance bonus at 200 million Slayer XP is changed to trigger at level 120 Slayer instead, or 104,273,167 XP. There is no bonus at 200 million anymore.A mix of Dark Blue Grey and Turquoise was used to highlight the edges and raised areas on the end of the sword.

Step 5(Left)- This layer is a mix of Hyek Yellow and Dead White. Hit a smaller portion of the Screaming Skull to build up a brighter highlight.

Discussion

Accent Paints: Abbadon White, Pallid Wych Flesh (as a white), Nuln Oil, Seraphim Sepia, and various contrasts for small accents. Ushabti Bone from Citadel Colour is a highly pigmented acrylic paint that is perfect for use as a base coat or a final touch on miniatures. The paint has a matt finish and its pigments are finely ground, providing excellent coverage and allowing for easy application even for beginners. It’s a great color to use for creating a natural, bone-like effect on miniatures, think of it as the foundation of a skeleton, it can add a touch of realism to your miniatures. Ushabti Bone is a versatile color that can be used in a variety of miniature painting schemes, it can be used as a foundation color for a palette or as a final touch to add a sense of realism. What armies to paint with Ushabti Bone For the Mortek Guard below, this would be about what I’d consider finished. At this point it’s just a matter of doing any final touch up and deciding on a basing scheme, but I think the shield especially shows the way these two contrasting colors can really pop when successive layers of the colors blended together are applied. Also, as a note, that is NOT the standard shield; I was given the model without an arm and converted a shield for him. It’s like the same size as him, and he is my cute smol skeleton son now.

After the skin was done, I took some Volupus Pink worked it on my wet pallete and then went over the scars. These armies were chosen based on the bone-like details and elements that are present on the miniatures and vehicles of these factions Then do any other metallics in literally whatever paints are nearby, I find the variety helps make the knights look more unique As the paints being used are very thinned down it makes them transparent. Because of this, it makes the choice of primer colour very important, as it can actually be used to our advantage and save a lot of the work for us.

First, I primed with Wraithbone, although Grey Seer or even Corax White would probably work, but would likely change the next step quite a bit. What was important here is to make sure the color was smooth and all over, as all of the skin would be painted later using only contrast paints. For my Arch-Regent here, I wanted to make sure that an uneven spray can zenithal wouldn’t leave me with areas in which the contrast wouldn’t reach, and for the rest of the army I found a single coat was just faster than trying to do a Zenithal, especially since contrasts were such a big part of the picture.

Painting the model took me longer than any other model I’ve ever done. For reference I’ve built and painted a Warmaster Titan in 3 days, but something about the Glottkin proved to be a huge challenge for me. It took over a month to finish but I’m really happy with the result. If you do have any questions or suggestions on how to improve it for others, then please do let me know. Otherwise, set target to 5 × ( p l a y e r − m o n s t e r ) 2 - i.e. square the difference, then multiply by 5. A multi-coat version of thinned Aethermatic Blue gives a smoother, icier look (I ditched the blue wings later).

These levels are listed on Slayer Codex, and are provided in the calculator below.
