The Garden Gnome
Painting the Garden Gnome, 28mm Style - Part 2
The hat was painted using colors progressively from dark read top yellow.
The flesh color was a challenge from scratch and I started with these three colors, then blended up to lighter by adding white.
I painted the eyes using the same approach I use for miniatures, adding more details to the pupils given the ample size.
The mushroom was next, adding white dots over the gradient red color.
Stem was painted beige with dark brown recesses and I added slightly darker red circles around the white dots.
Last but not least, the hat decorations were painted using metallic craft colors.
