I’ve stuck with GW paint as they are readily available, although Vallejo are also available in Aberdeen now. Whilst exotically named, the colours are fairly natural and consist of earthy colours and off whites, dull and pretty plain. Substitute other brighter shades for characters. Feel free to mix as well. Aketons for instance would have gotten darker as they aged and would also have been different colours depending on the material it was made from. The yellow colour Iyanden Darksun is also pretty dull, so could be dry brushed up with a lighter yellow as long as it doesn’t turn out too day glow.

The wash is there to in part to act as a shade, but also will help to blend different painting styles so they look fairly similar, important when we’re all working together on this.

This is just a guide chaps, hope it helps.
