Painting tips

Prime in dark grey to set a grim base tone. Use muted colours like olive drab or bottle green for uniforms, with metal trims for armor. Add rust and grime washes for battlefield realism, and subtle Eastern insignia for thematic character.

Field the elite ranks of the Shi-gun-tai and bring disciplined, grimdark warfare to your tabletop.
