Army Painting: Dark Angels Done Quick! [How I Paint Things]

Whether you're an old hand looking to get a bunch of Dark Angels ready for the table as quickly as possible, or someone new to the army who wants an easy, beginner friendly method that's simple to replicate and gives decent results, you can't pass up a cheeky drybrush! Even though the armour isn't actually shaded at all, once this hits the table the eye-catching, bright highlights on the armour will do a lot of the heavy lifting for you - and it won't break the bank to pick up the paints to get started on them!
