Dhom-Hain (Idoneth Deepkin) Paint List for Age of Sigmar

advanced Idoneth Deepkin

Violet armour, marine accents and very pale skin, a deep-sea palette. Cold colours throughout, with the pale skin as the only relief.

Build the violet up slowly to avoid streaks, and keep the turquoise strictly as an accent. Dhom-Hain works as long as the skin stays cold and clean.

Recommended undercoat black — Several priority paints in this army converge on black.
