A friend of mine has an army of Imperial Fists that he keeps at work and as I had my paints in the office with me today I painted one up... First I blocked in the main colours with sunburst yellow and blood red, bit of black for the joints in the armor...
Next I blocked in the leather and metal parts with scorched brown and boltgun metal and the head with tallaran fleshtone... After this I gave the armor, head and leather a wash with sepia tone ink and the red with crimson wash.
After leaving the washes to dry for 45 mins I picked out the skulls and some of the other details on the armor before applying a second layer of wash.
Wash dried and highlights picked out in sunburst yellow mixed with a lil' bit skull white. Also highlighted the cloth and chest piece with blood red and a little fiery orange.
Picked out the final details and polished up some of the highlights before moving it onto a proper base... Base is done using a mix of Warlords flock and sand from the local beach.
Realise you for got to paint the backpack.... fuck.

Call me crazy, but I do all of my basic painting on sprue. That way, parts that are obscured on the model at least get a basic paint job.
