1
Skin. Start things off by painting the skin with Dwarf Flesh. Carefully apply the paint, and cover any mistakes with Chaos Black.
2
Metal. Paint the chain mail skirt, helmet, and pickaxe with Chainmail. Before moving on, be sure to change your water! Do this change after any step involving metallic paints.
3
Beard. Continue by painting the Dwarf's beard and hair with Graveyard Earth. If you are painting multiple Dwarfs, try using alternate beard and hair colors.
4
Shirt and Candle. Paint the shirt sleeves Regal Blue. To paint the miner's candle, start by painting the entire thing Skull White. Finish by painting the tip of the flame Blazing Orange.
5
Gold Trim. Paint the armor trim, bracers, and two pickaxe rings with Shining Gold. If you plan on painting more models, be sure to wash out your water!
