Afternoon #WarHamFam and #WarhammerCommunity I finished #PaintingWarhammer on my Deathwing, but just wanted to show some unseen WiPs of the lava blades. I started with Valejo Game Extra Opaque Heavy Red.


Then I stippled on some dark orange in places, then some Troll Slayer Orange.


It was the same for the unnecessary Bolter Bayonet. 


I mean this was just super easy with very little thought to it.


So much so that when I added VGC Orange Fire it felt like it was painting itself


From here I just wanted to add some yellow.


And with VGC Sun Yellow stippled at the ends they were done. 


Now a light drybrush of black in some places, perhaps the odd black dot in others would help on a bigger blade. But the Lightning Claws were already quite small, so I didn't want to confuse things.


Not sure I got the effect in the right places here but even so I was super chuffed with the results. Enough to recommend giving it a go.


I know I was tentative, despite trying this effect a few times already. If you have doubts, don't. Just give it a go, you'll be surprised how easy it is.
