Chest of Colors forum

What's the base painted with? Like it a lot.

@Hosea: no problem, my stread is spam-thread

@Scott: base was boltgun metal painted on black basecoat and highlithted with mithril silver - it took 15 minutes;
after that there were many glazes painted (which took damn long time): browns, sepia, yellow, oranges, some black even and for the final touch I added some dry pigments
I tried to put list of colors used on this model in zombie wip thread

Cool! Base is just wonderful.

The base looks pretty cool, and I like the colors a lot (especially how well the talisman fits here!) but I feel the photos are too small to say anything about details or quality.

Since the "throwing ball", the blades on his hand and on the back has lots of blood, I will put some bloods on the ground as it will make it look more nature.

I like the base and the overall impression it brings out. May be out a bit rust on the chain close to his right hand?

I esp like his face, look so funny and perhaps silly, but evil.

@mahon: even bigger pics??? damn!!! these must br the biggest pics I uploaded in years!!!
I have raw photo of bigger resolution, I'll cut it and show

@Hosea: good point - I didn't think about adding blood on the ground

The only part I don't quite like is the face. It may be because I never liked this part of this sculpt. The armor is painted very well with nice shjading and zenithal highlighting. I like the way you represented damage on the armor. Not sure about verdigris, but the turquise talisman is a nice focal part.

thanks!
indeed at the beginning I prepared alternative head for this model (full helmet) but then I thought - it's for ebay so I better keep the original parts
