John's VLOG: Nighthaunt Age of Sigmar Project
The Rust, The Patina, The Base.
The project is drawing to a close and I am getting happier with the results as I see it all come together.
If you did not see yesterdays VLOG, here is what I did.
Adding a drybrush of Army Painter Lava Orange to the basecoat of Cavalry Brown and been washed down has really made the metal items into a strong feature of the miniatures.
Consider the patina on the bronze details the first pass. I think it really needs another layer of a brighter colour. Anyway, the colour applied is Army Painter Hydra Turquoise which has been thinned to about 1/4 with Flow Improver.
I still persisted and applied it to as many little details as I could. Just to add some visual interest here and there. I particularly like it on the sword scabbard.
The final item for this update is the bases. I created a basing material with some pigment powders (a dusty colour darkened with black) some sand, some flocking material and PVA glue. The mix turned into this sort of dead, sludgy green. I love it! It’s easy to apply and gives much-needed texture to the base which will be perfect for any dry brushing or other effects I may want to add.
