Carnevale - Escape from San Canciano
Painting the Rashaar - Hybrid
Hybrid - Base coatsInitial base coats were applied to all the following areas using the specified Vallejo Model Color (or in one case Games Workshop) paint.
Shirt – German Camo Extra Dark Green
Trousers, Lacing tie on shirt neck – Flat Earth
Bandages – Deck Tan
Hair – Sky Grey
Tentacles (on head) – Hawk Turqoise (old GW paint)
Knife – Black
Skin – Light Flesh
Eye – Pink
As with the guild models a liberal coat of Agrax Earthshade was applied to everything prior to the highlighting step.
Hybrid - HighlightsAfter the Agrax dried we went back over the original colors highlighting raised areas and edges as described below.
Shirt – German Uniform
Trousers – English Uniform
Lacing on shirt neck – Green Brown
Bandages – Deck Tan
Hair – Sky Grey
Knife blade – Oily Steel
Knife Handle – Bronze
Eye – Flat Yellow
For the skin and tentacles I did not use a highlight step as such but instead tried some of my old GW glazes to tint the base colours.
Skin – Games Workshop Green Glaze
Tentacles on head – Games Workshop Purple Glaze
The green glaze worked really well but the purple didn’t really have the impact I’d have hoped for but as I move onto the last model I can refine the technique.
A coat of Basalt Grey again readied the base for the next step.
