From the workbench of the esteemed Horati0nosebl0wer
Who needs science when you have applied practical imagination?
Thanks to the Wonder of Ye Olde Interwebs I have found a means of returning to a process I haven’t played with for some time. Getting a formal class in oil painting taught me the process of a burnt umber breakdown, a value sketch of a piece in a neutral hue, and then dashing all my preconceived notions on color theory by assignments in using split complimentary hues but shifting all colors used in the same direction (warmer/cooler). Needless to say, it breaks the brain and opens up a different way of seeing and applying paint.
This thinking sprang forth, as it was mentioned that Ninjohn didn’t use basic black/white primer. I saw his process and I got to thinking that I’d go about emulating this as well in my own work at scale on a future army. Yes, I will do the insane and spread my love over an entire army in a non-Slaanesh/Crispin manner. Those people I will complain to please bear with me as I go about my madness. I think I have nailed something down to push on with developing my painting.
