How to paint the Drop Pod set

  1. Step 1: Base Coat for the Main Body
    To start painting your Drop Pod, apply a base coat of blue using Ultramarines Blue or another blue shade of your choice. Make sure to cover the entire surface evenly.
  2. Step 2: Adding Grey Details
    Next, focus on the details of the Drop Pod. Paint the grey elements, such as the hatches, vents, and any other mechanical parts, using Mechanicus Standard Grey or a similar grey color.
  3. Step 3: Hazard Pattern for Platforms
    For the platforms on the Drop Pod, create a hazard pattern using yellow and black. Paint alternating yellow and black stripes or chevrons. You can use Averland Sunset for the yellow and Abaddon Black for the black.
  4. Step 4: Fine-Tuning and Touch-Ups
    Take a moment to review your work and make any necessary touch-ups or adjustments. Ensure that the blue and grey areas are neat and consistent, and the hazard pattern is well-defined.
  5. Step 5: Optional Weathering Effects (Advanced)
    If you want to add some battle-worn realism to your Drop Pod, you can consider weathering effects. Use dry brushing or sponge painting techniques with Rhinox Hide and Abaddon Black or other black shades, to simulate wear and tear from battle.
  6. Step 6: Final Inspection
    Inspect your Drop Pod and make sure all the colors and details are looking great. Ensure that the blue, grey, and hazard pattern are visually appealing and complement each other. If everything is alright, apply a varnish, to protect your model against chipping and wear.
