The Ancient Kin - An Elf Project
19 Nov 18: Metal work
Working on the metals, gems and smaller details.
Ive used a recipe for “Aelven Metal” as inspiration for the lighter metal, “Gun Metal” for the sword blades and my usual recipe for the gold.
“Aelven Metal”
- base: Vallejo Model Colour Silver
- wash: Citadel Waaargh Green
- 1st layer: Vallejo Model Colour Silver
“Gun Metal”
- base: GW Boltgun Metal
- wash: Citadel Shadow Black ink
- 1st layer: Boltgun metal
Gold
- Undercoat: Vallejo Model Colour German Camo Brown
- Base: GW Dwarf Bronz
- Wash: GW Brown Ink
- 1st layer: GW Shining Gold
- 2nd layer: GW Burnished Gold
Gems are:
AV German Camo Brown, GW Mechrite Red, GW Blood Red, a tiny dot of GW Skull White
The bases have been done to match the existing Elves.
After a little feedback in the Hobby Weekender thread ( thanks @dawfydd and @horati0nosebl0wer ) I gave the bases a little bit more of a highlight and adjusted the hair of Palid Elf slightly.
