Dark Angels Deathwing Terminators - Dark Vengeance - WIP

Back onto my Dark Vengeance box set and this time I am trying out my hand on the Deathwing Terminators. The colour scheme is a new challenge as I generally stay far away from light colours over large areas of a model, they can be difficult to paint well, I am thinking of whites and yellows. The Deathwing colour scheme however is a bone colour so anything close to that is  a good choice as far as authenticity goes. I also had a look at various other hobbyist takes on the scheme in particular 'From the Warp' blog.

I started off with a grey primer, see top picture.

I then followed that with a good base coat of GW Karak Stone.

Next I gave the models a good wash with Agrax Earthshade to define the shading of the model.

Next was to clean up the wash by re-paint the stone colour.

Next step was to paint the areas of the armour that would catch the light with a 50/50 mix of Karak Stone and Bone.

Now that I have the armour pretty much done I will continue withe the rest of the model.

Stay tuned.
