    Hey all,

    New to painting, and will most likely be doing the standard blue for the Seraphon,

    Should I prime with Corax White or Chaos black or even Blue?

    What's everyone's thoughts?

    Kind Regards,

    Hi, white will give a brighter blue, priming with blue can save you time as it can act as your base colour.

    Priming in black will give shadow if you miss any areas but I prefer to prime with an appropriate colour for the scheme I'm developing.

    Oooh, blue primer might be nice.
    Never got ahold of any myself.

    I've had similar questions with this. So, priming with an alternate color can also serve as a base?

    Yes if you look at my blog I used a blue primer on my warriors but it was also my base coat.
