@painterofthefall: This time I wanted to paint a Dark Angel. Citadels Dark Angels Green was lying around for so long and I never used it. I should have seen it as a hint to keep it that way. In the middle of the progress I‘ve noticed that it‘s just too dark and I also totally messed up the „edge highlights“ if you wanna call it like that. Lucky me - I‘ve found a nice dark green in my Warpaint Fanatics drawer and tried to rescue that guy. Still far from perfect but better than begore. Lesson(s) learned. 😄 #warhammer40k #warhammer #miniaturepainting #spacemarines

Teacup :

absolution green is the best for me

Mason :

I’ve been painting my dark angels yellow before using dark angel green and I don’t think it comes out the worst

Phil :

Looks awesome

Nick G :

dark angels green is terrible

nck :

Only my 4th mini but I heard that dark angels green was kinda rough. I’ve been trying 2/3 caliban green with 1/3 nocturne green for the base, and mixing caliban green with the army painter wild green for different shades. I think I can go a bit lighter for edge highlights next time though

Ben :

Your salamander looks great don't let anyone tell you different.

Yuno :

I had the same problem for my Black Templars. The Black Templar contrast is very dark so I just ended up swapping to a Vallejo black. Much easier to work with. You could probably get similar results if you thin the contrast but you’d have to use contrast medium I imagine

ethanmc :

I ran into the exact same issue on my first 2 dark angels (salamander in the middle) wasn’t until the third on that I had it down

DeathMetal_Alchemist :

Dark angels green is one of my favorite paints

Shane Whitford :

Not bad, contrast paints are very different and require a different workflow. Try dry brushing light grey, and then white. The dark angels green needs a lot of bright highlights to pop. You can also prime white, build up from there. It’s a good start, keep painting.

Aaron Gee :

Warpaints triad system are fantastic

Marshcodeminitures :

that dark angles green was more dark than green 😅 but it turned out really well in the end 😁👌♥️

Honestly the best dark green I ever got for dark angels and black orcs was dark angels green (old GW before contrast) with purple ink then highlight it back up from there.

Pamela Stevens :

I love your videos. I appreciate you walking us through the process. Im a beginner so I zoom way in and and love how your work progresses.

alex :

Dark angels green is possibly the most useless purchase I ever made. My current recipe for dark angels armor is just black prime then just applying caliban green followed by moot green with the egg™. Turns out something like this

NumptyDrizzt :

Personally I think Dark Angels green is a bit ....Dark. I mix with a lighter green contrast, 2 to 1. but its personal preference

Luiz Nguyen 2k :

i have the same problem with bl00d angel contrast. I think you should prime white and then apply the contrast.

I use colour forge renegade green primer and then caliban green to top up bits I missed then warpstone green then moot green and got this for my DA Chaplain
