How to Paint Blue Power Swords

A short guide, showing how I painted the blue power swords for my Grey Knight Kill Team. I've tried to paint these in the past, but not had results that I have been this happy with. Written instructions: -Basecoat with Thousand Sons Blue. -Paint/glaze half of each side of the blade with Temple Guard Blue. -Glaze Gauss Blaster Green toward the tip, furthest from the Thousand Sons Blue. -Glaze Incubi Darkness on the opposing side, running in the opposite direction. -Enhance this shadow by glazing Abaddon Black towards the tip. -Edge highlight carefully with Gauss Blaster Green. I like to add a few scratches to the blade here too. -Selectively edge highlight tips and corners with a pure white. If you added scratches to the blade in the last step, add smaller lines or specular highlights to them.
