Speed painting Night Lords armor

By which I mean, speed paint the boring part which is the main armor plates and trim; and then do the interesting details with the proper attention. 

Prime black. Spray Leadbelcher.

Start with the base: cobblestone (except the final drybrush), then any elements such as marble or Rusty metal.

Paint all the trim Brass.

Fill in all the armor panels Leviadon Blue.

Paint all the soft joints Black Templar.

Paint the helmet wings Blood Angels Red.

Wash the silver elements Nuln Oil. Highlight as metal

Also paint the eyes/visors Silver and paint them Magmadroth Flame.

Paint on any large open areas (except shoulder pads) lightning motifs using Grey Seer.

Highlight Dead White.

At this point, with everything on and around the feet finished, the final Stonewall Grey drybrush can be applied on the base (and slopped a bit over the feet).

Highlight the face Electric Blue.

Highlight the helmet wings Bloody Red, then Orange Fire.

Do any gemstones using the same colors: Bloody Red for the lowlight, Orange Fire for the highlight, Dead White spots.

Painting the chapter icon of the Serrated Sun on any right shoulders.

I decided to do any cloth-type bits as bloody skin. Paint medium skintone then apply bloody handprints and drip marks using Blood for the Blood God!

Blood on weapons at the same time.

Painting the legion icon of the Night Lords on any left shoulder pads.
