#6 COMPLETE: Voodoo Puppets
#6 COMPLETE: Voodoo Puppets
With the bases finished, I next needed to tackle the puppets themselves. With such bright bases, I wanted a contrast so they wouldn’t clash. I toyed with the idea of sackcloth, but thought it could look too dull.
looking at the models and seeing their ruffs I knew there was only one option – Pierrot!
My sisters bedroom was entirely decorated with these when we were kids!These were easy to paint also.
1 – basecoat wraithbone primer
2 – contrast Apothecary White
3 – highlight with white
4 – buttons, cap and brows contrast Black Templar
5 – ruff Magos Pink 1:4 with contrast medium.
6 – hair neat Magos Pink then highlighted.
I’m really pleased with the end result.
They are tiny models so I’m happy with the detail I was able to add (with my bad eyes).
I think they look different enough from their bases but still work thematically as clowns.
