Deep purple folds brighten gradually into lilac toward the upper-left rim. Thin overlapping layers soften the colour change while keeping the flute valleys and inner bowl darker.
Square Star Vase→
Stage 1 of 5
Remove dust and any support scars without rounding the lip. Wash off greasy marks and let the vase dry fully. Apply thin Grey Surface Primer, turning the piece to reach inside without filling the flutes.
The dry grey coat is continuous and the thin rim stays sharp.
Do not leave a bead of primer hanging from the lip.
Where to paint: Whole model
Remove dust and any support scars without rounding the lip. Wash off greasy marks and let the vase dry fully. Apply thin Grey Surface Primer, turning the piece to reach inside without filling the flutes.
The dry grey coat is continuous and the thin rim stays sharp.
Do not leave a bead of primer hanging from the lip.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Brush Xereus Purple along the vertical flutes, then cover the inner wall from the lip downward. Build thin coats until grey no longer shows; draw excess paint away from the narrow valleys.
Purple covers the vase evenly, including the visible interior.
Thick paint must not soften the scalloped lip.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Thin Naggaroth Night to a transparent glaze. Pull it down the lower panels and into the right-hand valleys, ending each stroke in the darkest area. Shade the inner wall more strongly as it recedes from the lip.
The opening has depth and the lower body is darker without a horizontal tide mark.
Do not let diluted colour pool at the foot.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Use thin Xereus Purple to cover unwanted dark patches on the broad flutes. Follow their length, keeping the narrow valleys and the bottom edge visibly darker.
The broad faces are clean purple and still separated by shadow.
Do not paint over the dark lower gradient.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Lighten Xereus Purple gradually with Genestealer Purple. Overlap thin layers up the front-left flutes, reducing the area as the mix gets lighter so the upper body brightens without a pale band.
The front-left body lightens smoothly toward the neck.
Do not turn the middle of the vase into a pale horizontal stripe.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Paint thin Genestealer Purple on the outward bulges below the front-left lip. Taper the strokes downward and leave the right side and inner bowl darker, following the light in the reference.
Light is strongest near the upper-left lip, not across the whole vase.
Leave purple visible between the pale ridges.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Lighten Genestealer Purple with a little Pallid Wych Flesh, keeping the mixture visibly lilac. Thin it and glaze the upper parts of the existing highlights, softening the lower boundary into the darker lilac beneath.
The brightest lilac occupies less space than the first highlight.
Do not leave opaque chalky spots on the rounded lip.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Touch Pallid Wych Flesh onto a few front-left rim peaks with a nearly unloaded brush. Keep each mark shorter than the lilac highlight below it; leave the rear rim quieter.
A few bright points sharpen the lip without making a white ring.
Do not connect the glints into an unbroken outline.
Where to paint: Purple body and inner wall
Turn the vase under soft light and repair stray pale marks. Mix Xereus Purple with Genestealer Purple to match the surrounding dry colour, then make small corrections without widening the light areas.
The lip is tidy and the light-to-dark transition remains continuous around the flutes.
This decorative paint finish does not establish water resistance.
