Sanguinor - armour finished and I added a recipe for painting the blue glow in the jump pack

I'm very happy to announce that the armour is now more or less finished! I must say I'm quite fond of the result. Since it was my first attempt at NMM I was afraid it would go horribly wrong but I think it turned out prety well - for a "good tabletop quality" mini anyway. I even painted the glow on jump pack's exhaust! I'm quite curious to hear what you think of the mini so far.

And since I've been asked about it on Bolter & Chainsword I'll add the recipe for the blue glow in the jump pack thrusters here.

Actually painting the glow is pretty easy:

- Basecoat with Astronomican Grey
- Wash with Asurmen Blue
- Highlight with Astronomican Grey (I think that Fortress Grey would work as well if not better due to less pigmentation)
- Highlight with Skull White
- Glaze with a mix of 1:2 Asurmen Blue:H2O
- Highlight with Skull White

It may sound like a lot of stages but since you can be quite relaxed as far as highlight placement and "crispness" is concerned it can be done pretty quickly. It's good to have a hair dryer nearby to help the washes dry or, if you have lots of jump packs to paint, you can batch-paint the glow to save time.
