I am trying to paint so epic scale stuff in white. Anyone got any good ways of doing this. I tried white plus badab black wash but this looked bad. Maybe try a light gray base with skull white dry brush? |

For a cold white, I do it with codex grey then fortress grey then white, for a warmer off-white I go bubonic brown then bleached bone then white. I think building up light from shadow with dry brushes or highlights works better than washes for white. |

Try getting in touch with Forum member Olly who has done lots of weathered white on a titan before: also Curis has some nice white stuff on his website: NinjaBread. I tend to build up in layers of grey though: if it's something small like an apocathery I try leaving some black in crevices and areas of shadow too. |

For really fast white, undercoat in white then wash with a very dilute blue ink. |

Fortress Grey, Space Wolves grey can be some nice base colors for cold white. When Painting white, pure white should only be last color placed on the miniature for highlights. |

Basecoat white and apply thin wash of bleached bone+scorched brown over it. Ratios are like 20 parts water, 1 part bb, 1/2 parts sb. My howling banshees are washed with thicker wash and look a bit brownish because of that. Drybrushing white or bleached bone would fix that. http://lunatix.epixx.org/images/20100501EldarTroop3.jpg |
