Zach FierceBatten III from start to finish
With the grandfather Zachary Fiercebatten the first done and ready for adventure it was time to take on his less heroic grandson, Zachary Fiercebatten III and his trusty hounds. The hounds are my favorite part of this mini and I especially love the little guy with goggles and a saddlebag. He looks like he belongs in an old motorcycle sidecar, tongue and cheeks flapping in the wind.
Here we see the three figures in bare lead, freshly washed, filed, and glued to Secret Weapon bases. Just waiting for primer.
Clean, simple base coats using GW paints. In addition to the metalics it is almost all Ushabti Bone, Zandri Dust, Mournfang Brown, Dryad Bark, and Bugman' Glow.
I find keeping the palette simple and shared between minis makes the work move faster and ties them together visually.
I used a mix of Agraz Earthshade and Seraphim Sepia washes to give them a solid, even coating.
I used the same base colors for my first highlight layers then then lightened them a couple times as I added more.
I am rather pleased with how this little group came out. To be honest, I want more of the hound miniatures for other projects I have in mind.
