Keeping up with my Astra Militarum paint schemes, it was time to paint these beautiful older models, the Vostroyan Firstborns! A lot of us might have some of these models in shoeboxes somewhere, and they do pop up as Made for Order from Games Workshop on occasion too! Hopefully this video inspires you to get some paint on your Vostroyans or to pick up some in the future now that there's an easy scheme to follow!
What other regiments should I cover soon? What would you like to see?

Paints used:
Primer:
Chaos Black
Grey Seer (lighter coat)
FAQ:Adding a light spray of Grey Seer over a full coat of black primer adds a small amount of texture to the primer which gives the contrast paint more to grip on to. It also adds light and shadows which helps define the model more.
Basilicanum Grey (contrast)
Flesh Tearers Red (contrast)
Wyldwood (contrast)
Retributor Armour (base)
Aggaros Dunes (contrast)
Volupus Pink (contrast)
Leadbelcher (base)
Fyreslayer Flesh (contrast)
Berserker Bloodshade (shade)
Khorne Red (base)
Leadbelcher (base)
Mechanicus Standard Grey (base)

A friend of mine just linked me to this video after having used them on the tabletop with him today for the first time ever. I went mad and bought around 50-60 of these on eBay a couple months back and have been looking for a solid guide on how to paint these glorious moustached fellows. Thank you very much for the excellent tutorial!

This is such an amazing video Andy. My local group is so awesome, they've arranged to purchase the Norn Emissary for me, to pain. I'm planning on Pastel Seafoam for the chitin and warlock 'purple' for the flesh. A light coat of red tone wash and a dry brush of mummy robes gets the flesh to a nice pink, while still giving it that 'scary' look she always commented on. Plasmatic bolt for the under ridges (where you've been using gorgrunta fur), and thinking Zephyr pink (a metallic) for the striations. I mostly have AP's stuff

For lazgun barrels as well as scopes and augmetic lenses I really like to do a base-coat of the old spacewolves grey and then just touch it with a drop of one of the brighter shades in a primary or secondary color, not sure about using contrast for this it might take some dilution.

Hmmm, I have asked friends and they can't see my comments, looking into it, the you tube algorithm itself seems to delete or hide comments and can be oked by the channel. But like all bots, it's got no chill, pretty sure I used the word gun in the commissar video comment that got it flagged, and iv used it just now, so this comment could be flagged 😅, and in my comment for this video I did have a link to pictures of the Mordians I made, so I'm sure that got flagged. KZfaq is hard work, and I don't even create content for people 😕
