Iron Warriors Colour Scheme Generator

Aquilas, rims and ornament. Basecoat gold, wash with a brown shade, then edge a brighter gold.

Bolters, blades and casings. Dark gunmetal, washed black, edged with bright steel.

Straps, holsters and bare wood. Mid brown, shaded, then drybrushed a lighter tan.

Faces and hands. Basecoat, a flesh wash into the recesses, then build the highlights back up.

Lenses, eyes and energy. A bright spot colour that pops against the armour - dot it on and add a white glint.

Groundwork. Earth basecoat, drybrushed bone, finished with your choice of grass, sand or snow.

Yellow-and-black chevrons on shoulder trim and siege plates - mask them, keep them crisp, then weather them back.

Recessed panels and inner plates in flat black, so the bare iron reads as raised armour.

Stipple orange-brown around rivets, vents and lower edges. Vary the tone so it reads as organic decay, not a flat colour.
