If you would like to practice using Contrast Paints, I recommend picking up some pre-primed D&D minis to practice on. You’ll want to apply enough that it flows into the recesses of the model. If you are not familiar with how Contrast Paints work, shake well before using, and treat it like a wash. I wasn’t in love with the way the Luxion Purple looked after just one coat (not pictured) so I did a second coat once dry. ![]() I did this first so that the skirt could be drying while I worked on the rest of the model. I made a small hole in the bottom of the model and applied Luxion Purple Contrast Paint with a Citadel Shade Medium Brush. I have (a lot of) Dollar Store Blue Tack at the bottom of my hobby drill to hold it upright. I elected to glue the skirt together and the torso together, and paint the rest of the pieces separately. You will want to get as much coverage as possible and this may require several trips outside to prime your model. If you prefer, Vallejo makes a nice, white primer. I like this primer because it has a very smooth finish. I primed this model with Citadel’s White Scar primer.

Whichever method you prefer, I recommend gluing the front and back of the skirt together as well as the front and back of the torso at this stage.

One thing I really like about this model is that everything fits together really well.
