Space Hulk: Stage-by-Stage Painting Guide Article byJim Sowter Introduction

One thing most players of Space Hulk will want to do at some point is paint the exquisitely detailed Citadel Miniatures contained within the box. With that in mind, the 'Eavy Metal team have prepared two clear examples of how to paint the miniatures contained within the box. The first of the miniatures is Brother Omnio. Painted by Neil Green, this clear stageby-stage example contains all the colours and techniques you will need to paint your Blood Angels Terminators to a high standard. The second miniature is one of the Genestealers found within the box. Since all of the Genestealers are painted using the same techniques, you can use the techniques and colours listed here to guide you through painting all 22 Genestealers, as well as the Broodlord.
