Step by step tutorial NMM by MaGie
Hi everyone,
In this step by step, I want to show you how I usually paint steel NMM. I've triedmaking a picture in between each step, but sometimes hardly anything can be seenon a picture, so those pics are left out.
For this tutorial I painted the halberd staff of the high elf lord Caradryan.
Before I start working with paint, I like to make a simple sketch in which I block inthe shades. After drawing the sketch I slightly squish my eyes and look if theshading/highlighting could look realistic.
For painting metal, I use the following paints:

At the strong shades I use black (1 in picture below). For the extreme highlights Iuse pure white (13). The middle colours consist of a slightly blue-ish grey (FrenchMirage Blue by Vallejo)(5) and a grey off-white colour (Pale Grey by Vallejo)(9).On my wet pallette I create mixtures between the colours. This step is the same forall colours, but I describe it only for shades 1 to 5.
Shade 1: pure blackShade 5: French Mirage blueShade 3: is made by mixing colour 1 and colour 5 in a 1:1 ratioShade 2: is made by mixing colour 1 and colour 3 in a 1:1 ratioShade 4: is made by mixing colour 3 and colour 5 in a 1:1 ratio
All the mixed colours are then diluted to 1 part paint, 2 parts water.
Now it's time to start painting. The mini is primed in white.

Step 1: Paint the whole area in colour 7Step 2: Start by shading the areas with colour 6 and then, in a smaller area colour5. With each darker shade, you should paint a smaller area within the alreadyshaded part. Try to 'push' the paint towards the direction of the darkest shade. Usethis method with every step.

Step 7: Go back to the basecolour (colour 7), try to blend the lightest shades withthis colour.Step 8: Start by highlighting by applying colour 8 in the same manner as youpainted the shades (with decreasing the painted area and by pushing the painttowards the highlights)

Step 9 (no picture): Highlight with colour 9Step 10: Highlight with colour 11Step 11: Highlight with colour 13, pure white.
As you can see, I did not use colour 10 and 12, because there is not so muchdifference in brightness I don't think it is necessary to use those.
Step 12: Carefully clean up the transitions between the colours. You can make thisstep a bit easier by diluting the paint a bit more. When using very dilute paint, becareful to wipe your brush before applying the paint to the model, you don't wantthe paint to run. Additionally, add a thin line of pure white to the sharp edges on topof the halberd. Applying this with the side of the brush will make it much easier tocontrol.

Step 13, last step: Make a glaze of Liche Purple (GW), 1 part paint, 5 parts water.Carefully apply this to the darkest shades, for adding a bit of colour. Make the lastclean-ups and the NMM is done!
I hope you enjoyed this step by step. I'm hoping to write some more in the nearfuture, so if you have any suggestions or comments feel free to share them.Categories: Painting Tags : metallic, nmm, tutorial
