Can anyone identify this paint?

Can anyone (perhaps paint master @Crowsfoot ) identify which paint (or a paint that would produce very similar results) was used on the skin of the Cold Ones? I really love the colour but I haven't found anything in my paint collection to even closely resemble it. It looks to be some sort of amalgamation of yellow and brown.




As a bonus, I really like the paint scheme used recently by GW to paint these crystals; same question which paints do you think they employed?




A painting related thread posted by NIGHTBRINGER ... oh my!

 

Thank you for the replies.


So for the Cold One we have:

followed by





And the crystals:

• Sybarite Green or (Lothern Blue and Ahriman Blue)
• Pallid Wych Flesh
• And then a grey shade

I would love to be able to replicate that cold one colour scheme. I'll have to go to the store and check out those colours in person to see how closely they match. To be honest, I'm not even sure if GW paints were used or not, but you guys have given me a great starting point. Thanks!

 

But does the Balor brown still retain the tint of yellow? That is what I like about the cold one in the original post. To my eyes it seems to be 70% brown and 30% yellow. That is the effect I hope to capture. Pure brown just wouldn't do it for me.

 

Maybe they used that brown or one like it, then they glazed over it with some sort of Clear Yellow. Reaper used to make some MSP series Clears that were meant for that sort of thing.

 

And the plot thickens.

My fear is that I go out and waste a bunch of money on paints and can never replicate the effect. Too many options.

 

Then the question becomes what paints do you already have that are near the ones people have suggested?

Did the person who painted it originally never post anything about what was used? (...check with [?] the source...)

That is definitely a possibility. A bit harder to achieve true consistency across many models... but when have I ever painted many models?!!!

GW's Snakebite leather would be the closest paint I have, but I am running pretty low and replacements are obviously no longer available. Everything else is a bit to far away. I have a couple of Vallejo brownish yellows, but they are much to far on the yellow side.

I wish I could. I have had that picture saved on my computer for years now (whenever ever I see a paint scheme or conversion that catches my eye I store it in a folder on my computer). I have no clue where I got it from.

Perfect, I shall have to check it out. It's been a long while since I bought a GW paint!

Do you mean they are dried out?

 

I've switched mainly to Vallejo.
