Is anyone else following the Tale of Four Warlords feature in the new White Dwarf? I’m totally smitten with the idea and have decided to participate as well. So last month I rounded out my unit of Liberators completing them and during September I painted up these three Retributors. After the jump a rear shot and a group shot so far.
I’m starting to get into the groove of my new scheme. I’m still refining some of the steps so don’t expect a tutorial anytime soon. Also it’s a tricky paint scheme to replicate because I go for bright whites and yellows and over a black undercoat and that’s time consuming.
Above is my fledging force so far. I’m really happy with colour scheme for the Primal Kings, I think it’s really distinct and the decision not to use gold* on Stormcast models is quite a statement. It really helps make them original. The biggest reason for not using gold is don’t think it would contrast enough with the yellow. I may use gold colours for the high command models, possible gold helmets because I use silver for the helms of my primes.
Next up for October I want to paint a character model. I’ve decided on a Knights Vexillor. I like his ability to transport a unit across the battlefield. Can’t wait to get started on that model.

The same article made me want to pick up one of the starter sets too. But I cannot choose which one to do! Awesome models by the way.
Glowing eyes?
Unbelievable. I had zero interest in the Stormcast, now I want to acquire some and try to replicate this scheme. Gorgeous work.
definitely one of my favorite colour schemes I have seen on the Stormcast yet. really a refreshing and viable take on them. so tired of seeing metallic gold Stormcast…
Thanks Unknown!
