VERY BASIC! cadians

[Commander_Jeffy]

ok...here is a very basic cadian style. (sry no pics)



Step .5. get these paints and brushes

Paints: Desert yellow, Dark Angle Green, elf flesh, devlen mud wash, metal of your choice, and shining gold

Brushes: a very fine detail brush and a basing brush

step 1. any base coat dosnt matter i like black hard to notice mess ups.

step 2. paint all the cloth desert yellow (might have to do many coats depending on base)

step 3. paint skin elf flesh (again might need many coats)

step 4. wash it all with devlen mud

step 5. paint all metal your metal choice.

step 6. paint all insignia gold ( the imperial eagle and such)

so there it is...its easy and fast so you like it

That's a good guide, but I'd recommend Catachan green over Dark Angel's Green, and Bleached Bone/Kommando Kaki instead of Desert yellow. I use desert yellow in my (current) paint scheme and it is very much a yellow colour. The only reasons cadian's have those fatigues is because they mix desert yellow with bleached bone, but mixing is annoying. i'd just go with the straight bone or kaki.

NOOO!!!! I CANT STAND IT'S TO BRIGHT! NO NO NO!

[aeonian]

But this is not a Cadian guide then. you have to understand that, Avrage. Desert yellow is yellow, not kaki fatigues.

[Commander_Jeffy]

well in the IG codex ( cant member if its new or old ) the pic says desert yellow....its but...if you say so i might have to try that ;D

[aeonian]

It says you mix Bleached Bone (or Kaki) with Desert Yellow for a colour that's in between.

[Commander_Jeffy]
