NMM Gold, New Recipe

NMM Gold has the most tutorials of any NMM style on the web, but that's not stopping me from doing my own! Here is my new recipe.

You want to start with a nice even coat of white. Here im layering White Scar over my flat gray primer.

After several thin coats of white scar the surface should be fairly even in appearance. The next step is to layer up with Balor Brown. Try to go very even and thin. A glaze/wash is what we are after.


Thin out some White Scar, as much as you dare and come back in and pick out some of the highlights. Here I did the crown and tips and upper flat surfaces.  
Now make a wash of Mournfang Brown and wash it into the recesses.  Next is to layer up with glazes of Balor Brown, leaving the recesses. Start thinking about where the highlights are going to be.  
Now start layering with a glaze of Averland Sunset, and keep adding White Scar to keep working up the highlights. Save the pure white for point sources. If things stray too far glaze back in with straight Averland Sunset. Work it until you like it. 
Remember, when painting for gaming, quantity trumps quality, for sure DMGWLFP!
