I have a 10-man squad of Iron Warriors Breachers and everything was going well. I painted the stripes, the trim, then brushed Iron Warriors -> Leadbelcher -> Strormhost Silver over everything is prep for my favourite wash: Basilicanum Grey Contrast.

Normally this makes for a nice armour base on which to weather a bit. This time though... it was waaaay too dark, I should have waited to do the stripes/trim, and it overall turned into an almost black mush... so I leaned into grime and, well... here we are.

Lesson learned (and when I paint-up my Warsmith and Contemptor, I will NOT be making this mistake again)!
