How to paint the Kroot Shaper set

1. Step 1: Prime the Kroot Shaper
   Start by priming the Kroot Shaper with a black or grey primer spray. This will provide a good base for the paint.
2. Step 2: Paint the Skin
   Using Death Guard Green, apply a smooth base coat to the Kroot Shaper’s skin. Ensure that the green covers the entire skin area evenly.
3. Step 3: Paint the Hair
   Take Abaddon Black and carefully paint the hair of the Kroot Shaper. Make sure to be precise and avoid getting paint on the skin or clothing.

   Use XV-88 to paint the clothing of the Kroot Shaper. This color will give the clothing a nice earthy brown tone.

   Apply a wash like Agrax Earthshade over the skin, hair, clothing, bones, and weapon. This will add depth to the miniature and make the colors pop.
