Lucius the Eternal, a champion of Slaanesh and space marine for the warhammer 40k IP. His armour plates are stippled green, and he has a sword and a whip. He looks menacing and daemonic with screaming faces pushing their way through the surface of his armour. The paint guide is below, I followed a lot of Warhipster's paint guide, you can find his channel on YouTube. Primer: chaos black Armour plates are stippled using slightly more of each brighter colour as you go. Start with incubi darkness, then sons of horus green, then sybarbite green, then gauss blaster green. Then use gauss blaster green on the edges of the armour plates. Purple / screaming face armour bits: grey seer, shyish purple, druchii violet, edge highlight genestealer purple. Silver: iron warriors, druchii violet, ironbreaker, mithril silver Gold: retributor armour, druchii violet, liberator gold Skin: grey seer, very thin agrax earthshade, very thin druchii violet, then the most prominent areas get glazes of grey seer and only the face got a few glazes of pallid wych flesh. The skin trophies on his knee and backpack: grey seer, druchii violet, edge highlight of pallid wych flesh. Tabard: same as the skin trophies but don't apply a wash of druchii violet. Leather: grey seer, 1:1 lahmian medium and wyldwood, edge highlight with mournfang brown. Black: corvus black, targor rageshade, edge highlight dawnstone and administratum grey. Whip: Add 1 part Lahmian medium to all mixes. Start with volupus pink, two coats. Then luxion purple wet blended almost to his hand. Then a wet blend of leviathan purple near the barbs. Carefully drybrush emperor's children, fulgrim pink on the pinker parts, then genestealer purple on the darker parts. Glass vials: mithril silver followed by blood for the blood god.
