SBS - Yeoman Milunka Savić - New Antioch TC

Hi dear Craftworldians!

I’m excited to share this step-by-step tutorial on painting the Yeoman from the Trench Crusade, inspired by Milunka Savić — Serbian war heroine and the most decorated female combatant in history.

In this tutorial, I'll guide you through each stage, from underpainting to final highlights, using techniques that makes this minis stand out. I invite you to try these steps yourself, experiment with the techniques, and add your own unique touch to the process. The steps in this tutorial are the same ones I used throughout the entire Trench Crusade group, so be sure to check out my other works for more ideas and inspiration.

Also, don’t forget there’s a Mechanised Heavy Infantry of New Antioch (Part One) available on Patreon, with Part Two coming soon!

Hello there, yes. For metals green gray was used in a mix with Vanilla White.:) Best, Aleksandra and Marko

Craftworld Studio

is the green grey in this tutorial lightened with vanilla white or similar?

Hi Daniel, There are no additional guides beyond what's available. We have a video tutorial for the Heavy Infantry and this PDF for Yeoman Milunka. However, with these resources and the other lessons available, we believe you’ll find plenty of inspiration to apply to all other characters and factions. We hope it will be helpful! Best, Aleksandra & Marko

Great work. I love the tones. Is there a guide for the third infantryman with the more plate armour and his hand up?

Daniel Berends

Hello Frank, Thank you! Zenithal priming is a great tool for helping with initial volume sketching. We typically use it when aiming for more saturation in the highlights. However, for these pieces, Marko focused on creating a grim ambiance. A desaturated palette played a significant role in achieving that mood. :) Best regards, Aleksandra and Marko

Craftworld Studio

Great tutorial again! Can I ask why you didn't use a zenithal priming for these minis?

Frank van Wattingen

Thank you. It is more intuitive add on. But you can always thinking of color variations. If you have red in underpainting, it is not simply one tone. It can go from purple to orange. Also, when it comes to nmm, additional reflections are always great to add more contrast and interest. :)

Craftworld Studio

Just fantastic. Question: in the bonus SBS, the helmet has some bright red and yellow reflections that add some amazing vibrancy. They aren't part of the underpainting, nor the highlight colors shown. Is there rhyme or reason to that choice? It looks amazing
