Silver Sea Dogs
Aztec painting Stages 2
Having done the base colours ,I then give them an overall wash of 50/50 GW Agrax Earthshade Wash, though for the warriors I avoided the nappies. This gives a slight tan to the main flesh tone and a more bronzed look.
post drying I dab a bit of white with a dot of black for eyes, like when Gaz does it (on 15mm geeze) It doesnt matter if they are abit wide eyed and googly as will tidy up in later stage.
I then started doing a bit of design on the sheilds, I may have got them the wrong way round as two I did with the wicker bit on the outside, but this actually worked in my favour as able to use the grid as a guide to painting the styalised Bird I wanted,
Its now that I start tidying up, 1st the face going over lines on the face with GW Contrast Fireslayer Flesh and slightly lightning the details of face with the Army Painter Tanned Flesh shown in the earlier update., This also tightens up the area around the eyes. I use the same technique on the details and rest of body to give some contast to the skin tone
great work Bob, lovely job
