I’m new to warhammer and do not own any paints, since I’ve been playing Total War Warhammer 2, I’ve enjoyed playing as the skaven so I was hoping to get the vanguard skaven miniatures, however I do not have the book that would tell me which paints to get. Which paints will I want for the skaven? And are there any cheap alternative paints that might also work well?
I mostly don’t trust myself too much with mixing colours since I’ve got a little bit of a red green colour blindness, heck didn’t realise the skaven plague priest I was planning to paint was wearing a green cloak! thought it was a white cloak this whole time until the store clerk at the warhammer shop told me otherwise. will try to figure out some of the basic shades for other colours though
To be fair, you might be better off without premixed then, and making your own dropper bottles, with labels stating their color ratio so you’d know at a glance how many steps apart each was from its chromatic neighbors. My sibling is blue-green colorblind and it kept them from their dream of a pro pilot career, but that’s on the FAA. I know that, if there were a way to fly-by-number, they would 🤪 (jk, that’s crazy dangerous, but my point is: you can totally do this with your own system and a little prep work.) 🙌🏼
