How to paint the Attilan Rough Riders Set

  1. Step 1: Prepare your models
    Clean any mold lines or imperfections using a modeling knife or file. Assemble the models according to the instructions provided.
  2. Step 2: Prime the models
    Apply a thin, even coat of primer to the entire model using a spray can or airbrush. Use a color like Citadel’s Chaos Black spray for a good base.
  3. Step 3: Basecoat the horse and rider
    Start by painting the horse’s body with a base color like Rhinox Hide. Apply the base color to the rider’s clothing, armor, and any other desired areas.
  4. Step 4: Highlight the horse and rider
    Using a lighter shade, such as Gorthor Brown, carefully paint raised areas on the horse’s body and the edges of the rider’s clothing and armor to create highlights and add depth.
  5. Step 5: Detail the accessories and weapons
    Paint the details of the accessories, such as holstered laspistols, saddle-slung lasguns, and other equipment, using appropriate colors like Leadbelcher for metallic parts and Mephiston Red for lasgun accents.
  6. Step 6: Apply wash for shading
    Apply a wash, such as Agrax Earthshade to the entire model to enhance the shadows and add depth to the crevices and recessed areas.
  7. Step 7: Highlight and finalize
    Use a fine brush to add final highlights on raised areas, such as the edges of clothing, horse’s muscles, and metallic parts, using lighter shades than the base colors.
  8. Step 8: Basing (optional)
    If desired, paint the base using textures, such as Stirland Mud, and add details like static grass or tufts for a finished look.
