Make sure to do this outside or in a well ventilated area. Shake well before spraying and spray short spurts of paint onto the figure so as to not glob the paint on and fill in all the detail.
Step 2 Paint eyes
Next, paint the eyes using red gore. Use a fine detail brush for this and take your time.

Step 3 Basecoat with bolt gun metal.
Next, use bolt gun metal to basecoat the leg armor, bolter and gauntlets. Make sure not to fill in the recesses of the bolter when you paint it. Let a little of the chaos black undercoat show through.

Step 4 paint shoulder pads
Next, paint the shoulder pads using shining gold. Paint just the linings. You may also want to paint parts of the helmet using shining gold as well as the bullets on the bolter.
