Assembly and painting tips

The Commissar arrives unpainted, inviting you to bring your color scheme to life. Start by dry fitting parts, then glue with Citadel Plastic Glue. Paint the coat in deep shadows and add metallic highlights to the bolt pistol for contrast. The rubble base can be finished with rust tones and subtle weathering to create a cinematic scene. The kit is designed for standard Citadel tools and paints to achieve clean seams and durable details.
