Horses first... then beasts
30 Aug 18: The Antelope Progress
Further work on the Antelope over the last few days.
Monday the Antelope got a base colour on the skin and fur.
GW Snakebite Leather for the fur, GW Codex Grey for the fur.
The colour on the skin was applied fairly thin, as is always recommended. After this I applied two very thin coats, as glazes, of GW Devlan Mud.
After this had dried I was really happy with the result and could’ve left the skin there. There was a “happy accident” in the thin paint applied so far showed the pre-shade spotty undercoat through. I rather thought that it gave the Antelope hide a dappled/ spotty sort of natural look.
But no, it wasn’t enough… for some damn reason. I have moved on to start highlighting the skin. The first step is to reintroduce the base coat as a midtone. This has been carefully applied to the raise areas to start bringing out the muscle definition. I probably will only go one level higher in highlight.
Coming together very nicely, look forward to seeing the final result.
Thank you sir!
I hope I do not disappoint. But I especially hope that my gaming group enjoy ?
