I recently published a How I paint Nighthaunts guide based on the Chainrasps. This guide covers many of the basics I have used to paint my Nighthaunts army. When, I began to paint more interesting characters and units, I needed new recipes to deal with the different aspects of each unit. These are some of the extra details I have used. Green spirit energy Basecoat with Ulthuan Grey . Then was with Biel-Tan Green . When this was dry wash with Lamenters Yellow . Then wash with Hexwraith Flame . Highlight with Moot Green .

I love fully painted armies in Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40,000 but they often require a different style of painting compared to single miniatures; otherwise they take far too long to finish. The main focus of army painting is the overall look of the whole rather than individual miniatures.   As I was beginning to paint my Nighthaunt Army for Age of Sigmar, I quickly realised I was going to need a fast but effective paint scheme for the table-top. The Nighthaunts are a horde army, so I have lots of minions to paint. Each individual rank and file miniature does not need to be perfect but I do want them finished to a reasonable standard. So, over the last year, I have developed this Nighthaunt painting scheme. Different pieces of the puzzle have been taken from around the internet and developed/added-to through my own experience.
