Painting a Khador Widowmakers for Warmachine

These Widowmakers have been sitting in my to-do box forever. I finally dug them out and finished them. I wanted to do them in predominantly light earth colors, so I used a white primer.

Step-by-Step

• Prime white
• Apply basecoats
• Greatcoat - Citadel Bleached Bone
• Elbow and shoulder pads - Citadel Blood Red
• Brass pieces - VMC Brassy Brass
• Rifle barrel and stand - VMC Gunmetal
• Gloves, bandolier, boots, and packs - Citadel Beastial Brown
• Skin - Citadel Bronzed Flesh
• Hair and lining of greatcoat - You can do this whatever you want, I used a Citadel Codex Grey to make the figure look a little older.
• Wash the entire figure, except for the red, grey, and gunmetal areas with Liquitex Burnt Umber.
• Wash the red, grey, and gunmetal areas with Liquitex Paynes Grey.
• Edge the cloak with some Citadel Bleached Bone and the armor plates with Citadel Blood Red.
• Paint over the belt buckles with a dark brown, I used Citadel Scorched Earth, and then draw a fine line over the top with VMC Brass Brass.
• Drybrush the fur lining on the greatcoat with a little bit of Citadel Space Wolves Grey, followed by a little bit of Citadel Skull White.
• Paint the face.
• Base
• Seal

Here's the full squad.
