I would follow the advice given by mertaal. All the mentioned paints, however, have been replaced by new ones. Boltgun Metal = Leadbelcher, Mithril Silver = Runefang Steel, and Black Ink = Nuln Oil. I hope this helps!

I want to recreate the black metallic colour of the Uruk's armour, hitch you see in the film (and GW's models). I once achieved the colour with Gothmog's armour, but that was a pure fluke. I want to get a cohesive scheme through my minis as an army. Help is greatly appreciated, thanks. |

Boltgun metal. Three or more liberal washes of black ink. Lightly dry brush with bolt gun metal, then a very light dry brush with mithril silver. 50/50 water and black ink again, then pick out detail with pure mithril silver. |

Yeah, that's the way I do mine too although admittedly for time's sake I only do one wash before the highlight. |

I do basically what they are talking about and this is how mine turned out. [url] gallery/image_page.php?album_id=420&image_id=2267[/url] Keep in mind I am a very beginner painter so with practice I'm sure you can make yours look way better then this even. |
