Rune Priest / Deathsworn Black Armour Tutorial
Added 2025-04-04 09:43:01 +0000 UTCHey all!
This guide covers how I painted this Rune Priest, using the same black armour method as this Deathsworn. I just can't get enough of this scheme! it's a non-airbrush version that uses some sponge techniques, but you can definitely achieve similar results with an airbrush too.
The tutorial focuses mainly on painting the black armour and bone areas, but also include leather and other areas.
If you want to know how I did the axe or the base, let me know, I can cover those in future guides!

Thanks! The axe tutorial will be out early next week! Followed up by the base guide after :)

2025-05-15 00:55:23 +0000 UTCHey! I just get mine off Temu, there’s no specific brand or anything, and they rotate stock all the time, so the exact ones I use probably aren’t even on there anymore. But most of them are basically the same, just with different labels. For the Mini Beauty Blender, just search that and you should find packs of 100 for under $5. That’s usually what I go for. The Mini Smudge Brush is a bit trickier since they’re always named differently, but it’s the small one with the soft, domed bristles I use in my clips. They usually come in a pack with a few other brushes too.
