Barak-Nar (Kharadron Overlords) Paint List for Age of Sigmar

Navy armour, brass and cream cloth, the most recognisable of the sky ports. Brass over navy is the classic Kharadron pairing.

Barak-Nar lives on clean midnight-blue flat areas and crisp metal trim. Keep the cloth light so it opens up the Overlords' busy silhouette.
