The eyes, the nose, the mouth.

Nose is:

  • Army Painter Matt Black;
  • a 1:1 mix of AP Matt Black and GW Bleached Bone
  • GW Bleached Bone

The highlights are applied in small, thin, vertical lines.

Eyes:

  • Vallejo German Camo Brown
  • GW Mechrite Red (foundation paint)
  • GW Blood Red
  • rough mix of GW Blood Red and Bronzed Flesh
  • Glaze Of GW Devlan Mud

Mouth:

  • Base tongue in German Camo Brown
  • GW Mechrite red
  • GW Bronzed Flesh
  • Mechrite Red again… see beliw
  • Glaze of GW Devlan Mud

I had based the tongue, then gone over with the Mechrite Red. I tried bringing the tongue closer to a natural cat-tongue-pink with Bronzed Flesh. I applied it with small, thin strokes. But it looked wrong. Too pink. I went back over with the Mechrite Red. Though I left a little of the Bronzed Flesh showing through… it looked ok. I glazed over this with Devlan Mud and left it to dry. I’m happy with the result.

I did the base at this point too, though I won’t go into it here.

The White Lion!The White Lion!

I still have a few details to add to the base. But almost done.
