Draconis: Spring Clean 2026 (Fallout) and Onward

17th September 2026

Using the box art as inspiration and guidance I went with a military green and a dark red. The over-jacket, backpack, hat and trousers were all painted with Militarum green. The was washed, of course, with agrax. Followed with a drybrush of Militarum, and then a couple of highlight stages of Militarum mixed with ivory, the brightest stage just targeting the upper facing areas.

Then it was onto the under jacket, showing at the sleeves and collars. I started out with Khorne red. Washed, Agrax. Then highlighted back with Khorne, followed by Mephiston Red and Evil Sunz, highlighting smaller areas each time, focusing on the upper areas. The arms had good detail here which helped.

Next up it was the boots, straps, buckles and buttons. The over boot covering was painted with an earthy brown (Foundry Peaty Brown). The straps and belt were done in Spearshaft and the buckles and buttons in Chainmail. The boots were washed with Agrax, the rest with Nuln oil. I also washed the backpack with Nuln as well, to give it a bit more separation from the rest of the green clothing.

Getting into the smaller and nearer to the end details, it was onto the faces, goggles, guns and gloves. Faces were just a light flesh paint, washed with flesh wash (a highlight occurs at the very end). Goggles I picked out the frames in dark grey then painted in the lenses with a mid blue followed by a smaller touch of pale blue. Gloves were dark grey with brown patches on the upper. The guns were painted in a similar way to the others so far. Gunmetal, with green panels and yellow accents.

I hadn’t done much with the bases, so all that work came now. I used the same techniques as for the others, using a mid ‘Rawhide’ for the sandy areas, some contrast space wolf for the pavement and then painting in the various items etc. An agrax wash to mute things down, then some light Rawhide dusting and some stippling of orange into some of the sand areas. Painted the stop sign as weathered and worn, but the red helps this base pop. Modiphius have done well with their scenic bases.
