Rust Tutorial

Painting rust is not that hard below are 3  easy steps in painting rust.

    You need a light orange and a black ink I personally use VMC light orange and VMC black ink.

 

 

. 1.   Mix these 2 paints like so: 70 %  black ink and 30% light orange and you will have something like this.


2.Now take a sponge (I used the spongy thing in the blisters and cut to this size.)  and dab it into the mix and apply it to the part that  you want rust on.

 

 

3.Once it’s dry paint VMC natural steel on the recesses of the rusted part and Voila!! Instant rust!!.


This is my way of painting a warpstone, now if you’re looking for the easiest way or the fastest way of painting one well you’re in the wrong place coz the way i paint them really takes some time and patience but the end result is gonna be awesome. 

these are the paints that you’ll need(im using vallejo here so go to a vallejo to GW paint conversion site or whatever to figure it all out):

  • VMC german bright camo green
  • VMC lime green 
  • VMC dark yellow
  • VMC deep yellow
  • VGC off white
  • VGC green ink

 2.   Apply base coat VMC brighr camo green.

3.   Once it dries apply a green ink wash.

 4.highlight with the base coat VMC bright camo green.

            5. apply a 50:50 mix of bright camo green and lime green and paint it on the raised areas of the stone.

6.Green ink wash again. Were doing this to have a smooth transition between the highlights.

7.now highlight the raised areas with only lime green.

8.green ink wash again and once it dries apply a 50:50 mix of lime green and dark yellow.

 9.another green ink wash and once it dries high light the raised parts with only dark yellow.

 10.highlight again with a 50;50 mix of dark yellow and deep yellow.

11. green ink wash and then highlight with only deep yellow.

12.green ink wash and then apply a mix of 50:50 deep yellow andd off-white.

 13.Green ink again and then highlight the raised parts with off-white.

 14. apply another green ink wash and then put tiny off-whites in the raised adges of the stone( use a very fine brush or toothpicks for this) and there you have it a finished warpstone.
