Description

How to Paint Citadel Tanks is a dedicated vehicle painting manual from the Games Workshop studio team. Aimed at hobbyists who want their armour to look as good on the shelf as it does on the battlefield, it walks through every stage of the process: assembly, undercoating, layering, weathering and finishing details.

The guide covers a cross-section of iconic Warhammer 40,000 vehicles, including a Space Marine Predator, an Imperial Guard Leman Russ, an Ork Trukk, a Chaos Space Marine Defiler and an Eldar Falcon. Each project is broken into clear stages with step-by-step photos, paint callouts from the Citadel Colour range, and practical notes on brush control, edge highlighting, and creating convincing battle damage.

Later sections focus on advanced touches such as heat-stained exhausts, mud and dust effects, chipped armour, hazard striping, transfers and markings, and integrating your vehicles into a unified army scheme. Whether you are new to painting tanks or refining a veteran collection, this guide gives you a structured way to push your skills further.
