This was a bit of an unusual job. We got it wrong! We are misunderstood instructions and painted the figures as Red Corsairs and Black Legion. So, you can check out the quality of our paint stripping here, as well…
That aside, it was fun to do Iron Warriors. We are not painted them for quite a while. In my mind they had poor table presence, but seeing these finished I could better appreciate the scheme. It feels like it shouldn’t work: silver is neutral and that's most of what you see on Iron Warriors. However, with a few touches, they do come together.
Here we were matching an existing basing scheme. However, if there was leeway to do something different, I think something with a purple tone might've worked well. It would offset both the gold in the trim, and the yellow markings.
These were painted to Exhibition Quality.
Paintedfigs is a miniature painting service. You can send us your figurines to paint, and we also have painted miniatures for sale. We paint mainly Games Workshop (Warhammer 40k, Warhammer Fantasy, Age of Sigmar, Necromunda, Space Hulk, Bloodbowl, and so on), Star Wars, Warmachine and Hordes, and pretty much every Kickstarter and board game under the sun.
And we do so at the lowest rates on Earth (we’ve checked).
