Are you scared of all those weird smelling oils and enamels and thinners that so many Grimdark recipe usually use?
Well you don’t NEED them! You can totally lean into the Grimdark aesthetic with just regular acrylics.

Here’s my recipe for New Antioch @TrenchCrusadeOfficial , all @AKInteractiveOfficial paints:
1- black primer and white zenithal
2- Quick Gen Russian Uniform
3- apply transfers
4- mix 3Gen Ivory into Russian Uniform in varying amounts and sponge on as chips
5- paint inside the chips using 3Gen Chocolate (Chipping)
6- add dots of 3Gen Medium Orange and streak them immediately using my finger
7- make some fun blood patter using Quick Gen Night Blood
Done! Super fast and effective, and all with regular ol’ acrylics
