PAINTING PROCESS
1. I mixed Ak Interactive Beige Red with a small amount of Ak Interactive Beast Brown (70%/30%).
2. I washed the whole surface with Citadel Agrax Earthshade mixed with a small amount of Citadel Contrast Blood Angel Red (90%/10%), diluted in equal parts with Citadel Contrast Medium.
3. The first highlight has been made with pure Ak Interactive Beige Red. I left the wash only in the recesses.
4. The final light was made with Ak Interactive Beige Red mixed with small amount of Ak Interactive Ivory (80%/20%). I focused on the upper half of the cheeks, the nostrils and the eyelids.
PAINTING PROCESS
1. I mixed Ak Interactive Natural Steel and Citadel Runelord Brass (70%/30%) and I airbrushed a smoot basecoat.
2. I wash only the recesses of the armor using Citadel Nuln Oil mixed with a very small amount of Citadel Basilicanum Grey (80%/20%).

4. I washed the gold with Citadel Reikland Fleshshade.
5. Finally, I quickly highlighted the gold with Ak Interactive Old Gold.

4. The second highlight has been made with pure Ak Interactive Warm Grey. I focus only on the upper half of the beard.m
5. For the final highlight, I used a mixture of Ak Interactive Warm Grey and Ak Interactive Silver Grey. I only concentrated on the most outstanding areas.
