Painting Notes for Daqan Spearmen

Not my paint job. This is an example of how to paint the spearmen and then use the Army Painter Quick Shade. I clipped it as a way to make notes for my future paint choices.

My goal here is to paint them quickly to tabletop standard and get them on the board as soon as possible.  I may cut out some of the steps below to speed the process.

1. Airbrush Vallejo Black Base Coat All Over

2. Airbrush White from top for Highlights

3. Airbrush Blue thinned down to allow highlights to show through

4. Airbrush Lighter Blue on middle shield and tops of head and shoulder

5. Brush flesh base coat on face

6. Brush Light Silver on spear and chain necklace

7. Brush Bright gold on Edges of Armor

8. Brush light brown on shoes, leggings, gloves, and spear shaft

9. DIP in Army Painter Strong Quick Shade
