This ungainly fellow is a 30k Knight for the Charitable foundation. Every year I paint something for charity, and this year I was lucky enough to be tasked with painting an all resin Forgeworld knight. Since this guy is part of an army give away, I am sticking to painting style of the team leader. His style involves a lot of transparent paints, which is new to me. So far so good.
Transparent paints are fun! i used a lot of Golden's hi flow transparents in the past year. Some really cool effects are super quick with them and preshading! Looking good...careful with the detailing afterwards :P
ReplyDeleteGood stuff man! I have found it simultaneously fun and harrowing using other people's recipes on the charity armies over the last couple years. It's neat to see how other people approach the painting, and definitely helps push me into trying new things.
ReplyDeleteMarc's "Cut into the painted model with an exacto blade to make scratches and dings" may be a step too far, though. Madness!
That is coming together well and fair play to you for doing it. I suck at trying to use other peoples ideas.
