How to Paint Ballistus Dreadnought from Leviathan

#warhammer40k #tabletopgaming #leviathan

For many of you, Leviathan will be the first time you tackle a Dreadnought. Well you've come to the right place to learn-this is my 6th painted one, and I make it just as easy as the rest of my tutorials! I use contrast paints as a quick way to get base coats on my models, and I do the same with tanks and dreadnoughts! If you have any questions about the process, just let me know and get set for Leviathan Week starting June 26th!

There will be tutorials on playing the game as well as painting the models from the Leviathan 10th Edition launch set so stay tuned for that!

I also launched my website and first set of merch! Please don't feel obligated to buy anything but if you do, I appreciate the support so much! My website will soon be filled with campaign content once the battle reports start back up again!

Check out my as yet very basic website here, along with my merch!
If you have any merch suggestions, or feedback please let me know!

Paint List for Brutalis Dreadnought:
Primers:
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.
