How to paint the Miasmic Malignifier set

  1. Step 1: Prime your model
    Apply a thin, even coat of primer to your Miasmic Malignifier. Choose a suitable color, such as black or grey, to provide a good base for painting.
  2. Step 2: Basecoat the main structure
    Using a medium-sized brush, apply a basecoat to the main structure of the Miasmic Malignifier. For example, you can use a dark green color like Caliban Green or a rusty brown shade like XV-88 but of course, you also have the obvious options such as Death Guard Green or Nurgling Green. Ensure complete coverage over the surface.
  3. Step 3: Highlight the edges
    With a smaller brush, carefully paint the edges of the main structure using a brighter shade of green or brown. This will create highlights and add depth to the model. For example, you can use Warpstone Glow for green or Baneblade Brown for brown.
  4. Step 4: Add weathering effects
    Using a sponge or a stippling brush, lightly dab a darker shade of green or brown onto the model to create weathering effects. This simulates dirt, rust, or corrosion. Examples of suitable colors include Typhus Corrosion or Rhinox Hide.
  5. Step 5: Paint the details
    Using a fine brush, paint the smaller details of the Miasmic Malignifier, such as the pipes, vents, or decorative elements. You can use metallic paints, like Leadbelcher, for metallic parts and other suitable colors for different details, like Abaddon Black or Rakarth Flesh.
  6. Step 6: Apply wash for shading
    Using a wash, such as Nuln Oil or Agrax Earthshade, carefully apply it to the model. This will settle into the recesses, enhancing the shadows and adding depth to the details. Apply the wash sparingly and let it dry completely.
  7. Step 7: Highlight the details
    Using a fine brush, apply highlights to the smaller details by using a lighter shade of the base color. This will make the details stand out. For example, you can use Moot Green for green details or Skrag Brown for brown details.
  8. Step 8: Paint the toxic gas effects
    Using a brush or sponge, paint the areas of the Miasmic Malignifier that emit toxic gases with a vibrant color. For instance, you can use Mephiston Red, Yriel Yellow, or Ahriman Blue to represent the noxious fumes.
  9. Step 9: Finishing touches
    Add final touches to your model, such as dry brushing a light color over the weathered areas to create highlights, or using a gloss varnish to make the toxic gas effects appear more vibrant and glossy.
  10. Step 10: Base the model
    Finish by painting the base of your Miasmic Malignifier. You can use texture paints, like Stirland Mud or Astrogranite, to add texture and realism. Then, paint the base edges with a color that complements the overall scheme.
