How to paint the Primaris Reivers

  1. Step 1: Basecoat the Armor
    Start by applying a basecoat of blue paint, such as Macragge Blue, to the armor areas of the Primaris Reivers. Ensure even coverage by using thin and smooth layers.
  2. Step 2: Highlight the Armor
    To add depth and dimension, highlight the armor using a lighter shade of blue. Mix a little bit of Calgar Blue with the base blue color and apply it to the raised areas of the armor, such as the edges and contours.
  3. Step 3: Shade the Armor
    Create shadows and enhance the definition of the armor by applying a shade like Nuln Oil or Drakenhof Nightshade to the recessed areas of the armor. Use a small brush and carefully apply the shade, focusing on the crevices and edges.
  4. Step 4: Paint the Details
    Focus on painting the additional details of the Primaris Reivers. Use contrasting colors to make the details stand out. For example, paint the helmet lenses with a bright color like Mephiston Red, the face masks with White Scar and the weapon grips with a dark color like Abaddon Black.
  5. Step 5: Metallic Elements
    The Primaris Reivers have metallic elements on their armor, such as bolts and weapon components. Paint these areas with metallic colors like Leadbelcher or Runelord Brass. Apply thin coats for a smooth and realistic finish.
  6. Step 6: Highlight the Metallic Elements
    To make the metallic elements pop, apply a lighter metallic color like Ironbreaker or Liberator Gold to the raised areas and edges. This will create a metallic shine and add visual interest to the model.
  7. Step 7: Paint the bases
    Complete the model by painting the base to match your desired theme. Use appropriate colors and textures, such as Astrogranite for a rocky base or Stirland Mud for an earthy base. Add additional details like grass tufts or small rocks to enhance the overall look.
