Blue Power Sword

We start with a rough gradient on the sword. The base is Mechanicus Standard Grey with a layer of Sotek Green. The I paint the first light parts with Temple Guard Blue and in those parts I paint 50% with Baharroth Blue. The last stap is again 50% of the light part with Blue Horror. Make sure the paint is very wet and paint multiple layers.

Citadel Sotek Green

Citadel Temple Guard Blue

Citadel Baharroth Blue

Citadel Blue Horror

Now we do the dark part of the gradient. Starting with Kantor Blue. In that part I painted 50% of the center with Dark Reaper. Then I painter the center op that with Black Templar Contrast. The last step of this picture I glazed the light part with White Scar and the dark parts with Abaddon Black using 10% paint and 90% water.

Citadel Dark Reaper

Citadel Contrast Black Templar

Citadel White Scar

Citadel Abaddon Black

Make 50/50, mixes of all the colors so Dark Reaper with Kantor Blue, Kantor Blue with Sotek Green etc. Then glaze all the parts between those colors with wet paint 20% mix and 80% water.




Paint the sword with Lahmian Medium to bring to colors together.




Citadel Lahmian Medium

Keep glazing with the mixes, White Scar, Abaddon Black and Black Templar Contrast. Really wet 90% water. Do this untill your happy :D.




Paint the sword with Lahmian Medium to bring to colors together again and highlight the edges again with White Scar.




Look from a distance to see if you are happy. Don\`t look to close your you never be happy like me.
