Screaming for Vengeance

 

Screamers of Tzeentch.

The first unit of my Chaos Daemons for the old world have been completed. 

Primed.

To get this scheme to work I had to take a watercolor approach and paint this from light to dark. 

Volupus Pink Contrast Paint. 

I started at the extremities (assuming these fiends truly have such a thing) and worked the color toward the center thinning the color as it goes. Volupus Pink was the color of choice foe this first step. 

Sigvald Burgundy 

Next Sigvald Burgundy was blended into the areas where I stopped the Volupus Pink and expanded into the unpainted area. 

Luxion Purple 

Luxuon Purple continued this blend but it was used more as a transitional step before I got to the dominant color of Asurmen Blue. 

Asurmen Blue (on the bottom).

Titillating Pink highlights (on the top). 

Yellow was used for their eyes. The yellow I used was Imperial Fist Contrast Paint, which is a great match for the classic Sunburst Yellow Citadel Color paint from the last century. I used a Micron for their pupils. 

A few final touch-ups, mostly highlighting the boney bits, and I was happy enough with them to call them done. 

And with that, they were done. The final step was to glue them to their flight stands. Note that the flight stands are NOT glued to their bases. The idea is that I can switch them out from these square bases (rectangular technically but you know what I mean) to round ones. 

Finished models.

And the first unit of Tzeentch daemons is done! What next?
