Painting tips

Prime in light sandy tones to set a desert base. Use earth tones—beiges, tans, and muted browns—for uniforms and gear, with faded camouflage patterns. Highlight metal on weapons for contrast, and add dust/weathering effects to simulate harsh, barren terrain.

Lead your Desert Raider battalion and dominate the sands with ruthless efficiency.
