How to Paint Streaks of Slime – PDF Guide

This guide details how to paint streaks of slime as seen on the Nurgle Lord of Plagues model, and is part of a series of PDFs that I have created for him. This simple technique can be adapted for various types of dirt or other streaking effects.

What’s Covered in the Streaks of Guide:

  • Materials and Paints: A list of paints used, including P3, Games Workshop, Vallejo, and Coat d’Arms, with emphasis on Battlefield Brown for consistency.
  • Applying the Base Streaks: Learn how to paint the initial streaks with Traitor Green, ensuring they follow the natural pull of gravity for realism.
  • Layering Colors for Depth: Instructions on adding layers with Elysian Green and Necrotite Green to create a sense of thickness and flow in the slime.
  • Blending and Glazing: Techniques for glazing with Battlefield Brown to tone down the brightness and blend the slime into the underlying armor.

Additional Features:

  • Professional Techniques: Richard Gray’s expert tips on achieving realistic streaks, including advice on paint consistency and brush control.
  • Versatility: Guidance on adapting the technique for different effects, making it useful for a variety of modeling projects.
  • Visual References: High-quality images to illustrate each step, helping you visualize the process and achieve the best results.
