Built and cleaned up
Here are the 8 all painted up
and here they all are... all 20 + the king
and thus ends my saga with the Army of the Dead..... or not.... we'll see. It was a fun and easy unit to paint. Not sure what I'm going to paint next, but we'll see.
Those look good! Can you tell us your technique?
ReplyDeleteIt's a real easy paint scheme. I did a basecoat of a 60/40 mix of Shadow Grey/Dawnstone (really any dark bluish grey will work instead of Shadow Grey which is OOP), then a liberal coat of Beil-tan Green Shade, then an overbrush of Dawnstone, then a dry brush of Administratum Grey, and finally a light dry brush of Ulthuan Grey. The armor and steel weapons were just Leadbelcher with a wash of Nuln Oil followed by a real light dry brush of Ironbreaker. The lower facial hair was a light layer of Zamesi Desert after you dry brush the model with Adminstratum Grey and before Ulthuan Grey. I had to go back and define the contours in the facial hair with Beil-tan green for most of the models.
ReplyDeleteThe bulk of the work is just dry brushing levels of gray. I'd recommend using a flat head dry brush over a GW circular one. Another thing to point out is I dry brushed sidewise, left to right for the last two colors of gray since those are the two that pop. I've found that I get a better result dry brushing drooping cloth when you do it this way.
Hope that helps.
Thanks, that's very helpful!
