A useful paint guide should connect colour accuracy, handling, and recipe context in one place.
Use Screaming Bell as your main base colour and build it up with thin, controlled coats. It has good coverage. It works best over a black or brown primer. Thin it only very lightly. Good companion colours include Agrax Earthshade, Gehenna's Gold, Nuln Oil and Runefang Steel.
Do not force the basecoat into an NMM-style finish. It behaves much better in a standard layered workflow.
