A play with flesh

Not had much time to paint but I made a little start laying down some basecoats and then did a little play with flesh.  Trying for a tanned/warm/healthy tone as a contrast to my troll’s slightly more pale, rugged look.  I’ve recently got a set of scale 75 fantasy paints and tried the pink from the red set as my bright flesh colour.  The paints come out much thinner than their standard paints plus they don’t require silly amounts of shaking.  The colour is also quite saturated too which is also helping me as I never really push the saturation as much as I should.  The army painter washes are also proving great at adding some more mid tones (not that the camera captures all of it) using a watered down green wash on skin seems alien but does help to tone things down and add a little realism.  Plus my now obligatory red wash to the knee 🙂 So one right leg almost done, think I’m happy with the look so onward to the rest of the skin.

Trying so hard not to say something about an arrow to the knee 🙂 Seriously though, looking nice so far.
