Hannibal and Hamilcar Painted
Painting Hasdrubal - Part 1
For the first miniature to paint from the set I decided on Hasdrubal. I felt that the figure and the pose that the figure was in lent itself to be best for demonstrating the effects of the paints. As I mentioned previously this is the first time I am utilizing the Army Painter range of paints.
Below you can see the inspiration, the start with a few colors and a picture of the miniature after the wash has been applied.
The model with the paints I used.For the blue cloth I used Ultramarine Blue washed with Dark Tone.
For the leather straps around his shoulders and waist I used Ash Grey followed by a wash of Dark Tone.
The flesh was simply Barbarian Flesh followed by a Flesh Wash.
The gold armor is Greedy Gold with a wash of Soft Tone.
Man, those are playing pieces for a board game? Great work! Great idea for a painting project, these are leaders and a period that don’t get enough attention in miniature wargaming.
