The Berzerkers of Khorne

Once your models have been primed with Chaos Black Spray Primer, painting can begin. Below, you will find a simple-but-effective colour scheme using only 11 colours. Follow the detailed instructions and check out the stage-by-stage images as you paint your model for reference. Don't fret if the model doesn't come out picture perfect in the end. Painting takes time and practice to master. Just do the best you can each time and be open to learning new techniques from others. Before you know it, you'll be quite an accomplished painter with models you'll be proud to game with!
