I really like Nightmare. He has a great sculpt, great fluff, and great rules. Nightmare will have a place in each and every Fight Club list that I run. He will hit the table first with epic Skarre. Being a character jack, I didn’t want to leave his paint scheme ordinary. I wanted to do something for him that really embraced his murderous nature and thought it would help me plan for my epic Denegrha paint scheme as I wanted the Wraith Witch and her killer/favorite jack to match.
I came up with such a unique look that I have to consider painting more like it. I used Vallejo Model Color Gunmetal Blue and Reaper Master Series Scorched Metal. Scorched metal looks like bronze but is much darker. After an application of P3 Armor Wash, it should look truly shadowy. The Gunmetal Blue is a nice compliment to the Stormy Sea triad that I am using on cloth. An application of P3 armor wash on it will have a similar effect on those portions as well. It will deepen and make it look like Nightmare is built of shadow infused metals.

Expect some WIP shots this evening. Now that I have a decent set up for taking images, I hope to share quite a few more with those of you that are following along.

Hell, it is good enough I am rethinking all my jacks. Hmmmm….
