Back to Basics: Drybrushing Deathwatch! [How I Paint Things]

The Deathwatch are the final word in the Imperium's defence against the alien menace that threatens to devour all humanity. Clad in sinister black and silver armour, they are the spear tip aimed at the heart of the xenos threat.

There's almost no end to the way that you can paint black power armour, but this neat blue-black touch is one that I really like for Space Marines, especially with the subtle warmth of their leather equipment and the red casings on their boltguns. With just a little extra work on a drybrushed base, you can very easily adapt this to just about any black power armour you can think of - I for one am very much looking forward to new Black Templars!
